The Tennis Thread
Federer being on the downside of his career just means he's not winning grandslams regularly anymore - he still won the Aussie Open and reach the US Open final last year. Nadal never winning the US Open doesn't mean he's not going to make it to the final or win it. It took Federer a long time to win the French Open. Nadal has the skill, the talent to win on all surfaces. These two just need to meet in the finals. There doesn't seem to be someone who's willing to challenge these two on a regular basis. Who's the next big star? I can't think of anyone. Until someone consistently steps up and wins multiple grandslams, I will continue to hope for the best final match possible and that's Federer vs Nadal.

Nadal wins in straight sets....so obvious! Okay US Open Gods, please let it be Nadal vs Federer in the finals, please!

I doubt he said that. Roger has more class than that. Roger just said he was injured and not able to play the match he wanted. That's so different than saying, "Yeah, he won because I was injured." I do think he's career is going down, which is natural due to his age, but I also think he's got at least one more grand slam win in him - heck he won one of the last 3 grand slams and reached the finals in two of them. That's still pretty good for someone whose career is going down. LOL It sucks that the final won't be Nadal vs Federer or Federer vs Murray. The finals will probably be pretty boring with Berdych/Djokovic vs Nadal because Nadal will beat them for sure...probably in straight sets too like at the French Open.

Both Venus and Kim Clijsters are out! Serena's got this tournament. I'm not a Roddick fan but that question by the reporter was stupid. The final match has got to be Federer vs Nadal. Anybody else would be a disappointment.

Ah, okay. I gueses there's nothing from Lucy's era then. LOL I hated the stories for Anita too. I really like the actress who plays her though, she's really good.

There was going to be an alien story? LOL UKLAW.....as for something memorable from the Lucy Allen era, the only thing that comes to mind is Warren's death (the mirror falling on top of him in the fire). Other than that, I can't think of anything else.

The marathon match is over!!!!! 11 hour match is done. Unbelievable match by both players. This match will be remembered for a very long time and it will never happen again in our lifetime.

Yeah, if I was there watching, I would be pissed too. I agree about moving to centre court.

Carley's leaving? If Steph dies, that's going to be hard to watch. I hope Ellis Hollins doesn't leave too. He's such a good young actor. And if Hollyoaks is still on 5 years from now, there's a lot of story for teenage Tom.

Finally caught up! LOL Everything up to Calvin's murder was painful to watch, but after that, the show's been pretty good. Poor Steph...and poor Tom - everyone around him dies. What's up with Loretta being a psycho now - it came out of nowhere. Theresa being Calvin's murderer surprised me. Anyone know who the original murderer was before PM changed it?

Grey's Anatomy: Discussion Thread
Wow!! What an amazing episode. It was definitely top 5 all time episodes of GA. My jaw dropped when the Mustache gunner shot Reid IN THE HEAD. I had a feeling she was going to get shot, but now IN THE HEAD like that. That was pretty violent. LOL Then Alex gets shot and drags himself to the elevator. Stupid, stupid April....why couldn't she die? She barges in while the Mustache Gunner was pointing his gun at Derek? I hate her rambling. Miranda losing it was so sad and Percy's death was even sadder. Poor Meredith. Had a feeling she was going to lose the baby. "I'm trying to save your guy, now go save my guy." I love Meredith/Christina's friendship. What an intense and emotional episode. Sure there were plot holes, like where the hell was the SWAT team? And how did that SWAT member only shot the Mustache gunner in the shoulder? Oh well, those things didn't really matter since the episode was kick ass.

Why is the Arizona gov't so racist? First they have that new immigration law and now they're going after after ethnic studies? This Jan Brewer is one piece of trash. I don't even need to guess what party she is in. I wish people like her were out of office. How can people elect a person like this? Really, Arizona?

EastEnders: Discussion Thread
Ah okay. Carl said, "That last scene was the final goodbye for the Santer era" so I thought Friday's episode was Santer's last episode. I guess I'll wait for another couple more months to start watching EE.

Since some of you were talking about it..... Lady Gaga: A New Madonna Making Pop History Wow, I'm amazed that "her debut album is still No. 7 after 72 weeks."

Oh I just noticed that this video is a continuation of "Paparazzi" and since there's a "To Be Continued" at the end of this video, there's going to be a 3rd part - I'm sure to be directed by Akerlund too.

Yeah, I do see what your point is. I guess I was saying, if people tried and put effort in their videos, people will watch it to generate buzz.
