Nadal first and Federer 2nd. I could watch both play until the cows came home. I'm really missing Rafa. Djoker is so sexy and some of his wins have such a mystery to them. He's a beast! AO12 Semi, he plays almost 5 hours and beats that idiot Murray, a match you think would have wiped him out, but then he comes back 2 days later and plays Nadal in another 5 setter for 6 hours [the most epic match in tennis history] and wins the championship? Who does that?

I turned it off after they went to a tie break thinking ND looked taxed.

Besides that earful of rubbish about a Brit winning Wimbledon (as if he's that Brit), is him and his awful cuts. I don't know why but he always looks in need of a bath to me. Further, that thing that he does with his bottom lip makes me think of an old man missing his lower dentures. I don't know if he's just biting his lip but it looks terrible and then they flash to the mother and I see the resemblance. If I pick a bird....ostrich comes to mind....but then I feel I'm being unkind to the ostrich.

Don't get me started on ESPN. They're always trying to manufacture a star and convince everone that no sport can thrive unless they prop one up. It's a treat when they put down soccer for being unappealing to Americans and lament over what shouid be done to "fix" it. They acknowledge that it's the world's most popular sport but alas it needs work because Americans aren't fascinated by it. Uhm, just let the rest of the world enjoy their sport then. It's too bad they have such a monopoly on so many different sports. The only thing they cannot get their hands on is the Super Bowl and generally the finals of most major tournaments.

I agree on everything you said. That's why I told Brad and Chrissie Evert that Brad was an awful broadcaster/commentator...lol...and that the whole ESPN crew pimped Andy too much and other players who arent that great. Andy Murray's game is just plain simple boring. There is nothing there that tells me he is the best/number 1 in the world material. I dont know why Federer lost to him. If Murray ever becomes number 1 I will be done with tennis...I wont be able to stomach it.

Yes, Murray is goofy looking and his mom...cant stand the woman.....

    • That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

    • Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.
    • Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be. 
    • I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here. 
    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Anita vs. Leslie, bring it!
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
