Emma is too powerful for Leylah.

IMO Leylah is gassed right now and is playing an opponent who isn’t intimidated by her (or scared to lose to a teenager). Emma also takes a lot of her time away.

Emma drew first blood. I want this to go three sets.

No one gives a fück about Tim Henman. Why are they talking to him in the middle of play?

This is fun stuff. They’ve had each other’s numbers. They haven’t wanted to talk much about each other in interviews or be too warm and fuzzy. A sizzling little rivalry.

Leylah’s problem solving is top notch.

Chrissie is spot on. They just want to beat each other.

Darren from Taiwan  

Novak made it complicated at the end, but he still the most clutch athlete I’ve ever seen.

C. All of the above

My pick.

ESPN just cut to an American Express commercial during a rally. Clown stuff.

Since I don’t pay attention to tennis news, this just dawned on me, where are the line judges?  Is it A.I. that’s calling the outs/faults? 

None this year, I think due to COVID protocols. It’s Hawkeye Live.

I think any pairing with her and Nick was always a placeholder for both parties. I don't think most regimes are invested in it or were, but I do think Griffith and several others are loath to relinquish the ABC stars and the dream of the mediocre clone of ABCD which they want the show to be dating back almost a decade now.

Which is just sad. Frons-era ABCD is not something to aspire to. Didn’t exactly end well lol.

These electronic “out” calls are creepily lifelike.

Novak looks injured. Sad.

Yep. I know Sharon’s character is permanently trashed and long damaged but it’s still pretty damning that she would still pine for Adam despite all she would lose in the process. 
 

BTW what’s up with the Tiny CBS eye btw?

I hadn’t noticed lol.

What happened to Chelsea? Is she gone again, finally?

She’s with her mom Anita, I believe, recuperating from her breakdown? But I think she’s coming back (MCE on maternity leave).

She’s been seen on Zoom calls.

In a way Sharon been back in crazy town for a while. Not batshit, kleptomaniac, bipolar baby stealing/swapping unhinged deer in the headlights psycho Sharon was from 2009-2016 and again briefly in 2018 but she is definitely unmoored at the moment….her continued friendship and obsession with Adam all the while absurdly being his therapist, her volatile marriage to Rey, ignorance of Faith etc. I hate it all it’s pretty icky.

True. 

All of UFEs from Novak are just gifts to Zverev.

I can’t stand Chris Fowler. Wish he’d STFU.

There’s been rumblings for a while that Sharon is going to devolve and go back to crazy town, this kind of indicates it as such. 

That weird, goofy voice as she came into Adam’s office, the tousled hair, the wild eyes—she looked a little “tossed up,” as Wendy Williams would say.

It would be lazy af to send Sharon back to crazy town, but lazy is the name of the day on this show.

Bye FAA! Thanks for playing! Don't let the door hit you on the way out!

FAA is like, not so fast, von Ryan.

Annnnd Felix has made a mess of a set he was on the verge of winning.

Like why bother at this point?

There is zero momentum coming out of the season for this. I guess they simply have to…

I think I like Sally and Adam. But all it will take is Sharon coming around and ruining the whole thing.

I’m like, is this just an extra long detour to Sally/Nick? 

Did FAA get a haircut? He looks super cute today.

That Jarly kiss is the dryest, ashiest looking kiss I’ve seen in a while. It made me uncomfortable.

I know it’s not intended to be full-on passionate, but it just grossed me out.

I do enjoy Briana Nicole Henry as Jordan, however, I hate the way her Jordan is written in contrast to Vinessa Antoine. Give Jordan back that edge.

I have come to like BNH. She’s a solid actress but she does give “generic Law & Order police officer with a ramrod-straight posture and a blank expression,” which works just fine for the professional scenes. I feel like VA gave stuff that wasn’t often on the page.

Jordan is such a sketchily written character that it’s hard to make much of an impression.

Also.. Ingo Rademacher... what the f**k is up with your muddled accent? This is how you're playing your final weeks in the role of Jax?

I noticed that too. It’s the same way he played Thorne on B&B.

Bwahaha! I’m SCREAMING at this scene between Eric, Quinn, and Carter.

“Just because my sex life is over… doesn’t mean yours has to be.”

Is Sharon supposed to be off her meds? She looks wild today.

Accurate streaming numbers are hard to come by, but I’m curious how this did. I haven’t watched yet, but I’m excited to. The show on a NBC is a total bore.

This guy. I think he’s American  

I wonder if Esme will somehow be involved with the Curtis/Trina paternity reveal. That would be one way of destroying her rival.
