Maybe the Yankees should sign this guy. : Hell, sign both of 'em! Andy Roddick and John MacEnroe find a way to entertain the crowd during Wednesday's prolonged rain delay at the US Open.

Did they show any actual footage of this on TV I wonder? Yeah, they did, yesterday, late afternoon/early evening. My picks for the winners: Roddick and Davenport.

Well, LBB, there's always the CFL playoffs. Bright side! Personally, I had predicted an all-Russian women's final all along. If by "all along" you mean "for the last hour and a half."

Weird: that's what I've meant by "all along" all along.

l_b_b is the new Sports Illustrated Cover curse. Oh god. I think that's true. Well, I will say in my defense that Davenport got hurt, and Roddick got (to an extent) rooked by the win...but did you see Capriati lose to Dementieva? I was watching with my brother, and we were well into cocktail hour, and it got pretty funny: "Okay, what now?" "Dementieva's going to hit an extremely weak serve, and Capriati's going to shank it into the net." [pause] "Is right! Next, Dementieva's going to double-fault." [pause] "Is right! Hahahahaha!" You really had to be drunk (which we were) to laugh at it.

Heh, that's pretty cool! I could see those two getting along downing some beers at the bar. Did they show any actual footage of this on TV I wonder?
