To play - he's got tendinitis in his knees, already skipped Queen's Club and is on the fence about Wimbledon.

I suppose your enjoyment of Art Blakey depends on your appetite for straight hard bop with some slightly experimental rhythms.
I never buy live versions of albums I already own, but I like the idea of live albums with music with heavy improvisation. But the execution is sometimes lacking. And with things like Masada, buying the live albums is the only thing that makes sense because they function as a best-of collection, unless you feel it necessary to buy all 10 studio Masada albums... |
Yeah, I agree entirely.

To my knowledge, he hasn't made a decision yet. Though he may have.

Gah.
Hewitt - he annoys me Roddick - he annoys me
They're about to play each other.
I'll be really bored watching this game.

 My dad can't stand Roddick's hypernature either. Nadal announced he is going to Wimbledon.

Hewitt - too cocky Roddick - too nonchalant and boring
Murray has actually got his interview technique sorted now. He looks much better behind the lens now and that's cool.
But the Best of 3 Sets format is annoying. 5 Set thrillers are always fun.

Unfortunately, players can't play 5 set thrillers the whole season, can they?

I think that would become extremely tiring.

Well no but they also shouldn't play the womens 3 setters either.  I still think women could potentially play 5 setters. The Williams sisters are practically men anyhow, so they could for starters.

3 sets is perfectly fine, they've switched from 3 to 5 throughout the Open Era anyway, it wasn't just recently.

I love Facelift so damned much. However, I urge you to listen to Hughscore's version of Facelift with Hopper on bass and Dean on sax. It's like a 21st Century Facelift. It's great.

Anyway, what is this supposed to be. Tennis comes to the grass, and all of a sudden, you're all experts and heavy tennis chatters?  Try watching the whole season, like I do. I even watch some minor tournaments. Murray won't make it in the final at Wimbledon, anyway.

It's because it's on during the day on the BBC.  Actually, I did watch a match at Roland Garros I think. So it's not all about the Grass Court season. I've always watched Tennis on and off but usually watch Wimbledon every year. I never usually watch Queens and just happened to know Murray was still in the competition and switched the television on earlier and it happened to be just before he was coming on court. So pure chance really. And I've not watched a single point of this Roddick vs. Hewitt match yet.
