I didn't know that Cahill had stopped coaching and taking her [!@#$%^&*].....LOL. I guess that woke her up because now she hasn't thrown a tantrum and continues to win.....LOL

OK, I have been under a rock, and have crawled out from down under....I knew Margaret Court said some crazy *hit but I had no idea.  I am just catching up on news articles...that make me VERY HAPPY.  Google Maps apparently - the arena now says Evonne Goolagong Arena on Google Maps?  GOOD.  She is one wack *itch.  And guess what about her record?  Serena will come back and she and Venus will win MULTIPLE Doubles titles even if Serena doesn't win another Singles Grand Slam title - but I think she will.  I hope she comes back and eclipses the *itch.  One article I read....Martina had made a comment about Margaret and Margaret said something like...Martina should focus on the problems in her own country.

 

Reminds me of a Designing Women episode...you know what?  We ain't all crazy here.  But you know what we do with our crazy people?  We don't hide them upstairs, we bring them right down here and let them talk to you.  In the South we say it's not a matter of whether you HAVE crazy people in your family - it's just a matter of which side of the family they're on.  ("which side of the family are yours on?")   - Julia:  "BOTH".

Djoker needs a break.  His mind/heart and body are not in sync because he burned himself out last year.  Djoker owned the first half of 2016.  Time for a nice sabbatical and not think about tennis.  It did wonders for Roger.  Roger took 6 months off, healed his body, returned and snatched the entire field.  Oz 2017 and the Sunshine Double!  Then he decided RG wasn't worth his time because that's not his surface and will return to Wimby.  Will probably take it too!

Many feel this is a mistake with Wimbledon coming up. Most are dogging him and saying how boring his game is....LOL and how wooden he is as a player and person...LOL

    • What consequences are there to suffer? He didnt commit any crime and everyone already hates him. If anything this will set back the progress he's made with Naomi
    • Yes and I also loved how she focused on Chelsea and Naomi when she spilled Bill's involvement in all of this.
    • Danny: Don't drink it. Just hold it. Rocco drinks three laced cups.

    • OH, I AM.   And it looks like it's a pretty good episode so I might watch later on this weekend after work cuz I see a lot of scenes with people I actually like. Very happy to see Rocco/Danny appear to be getting story, too. 
    • I do agree that a revival of EON would work, if it doesn't fall into doing all of the typical soap opera tropes... which it became guilty of in the final few years of the show with the over abundance of Raven/Sky at the expense of the actual detectives, police, etc. And I know it was mentioned earlier that Raven had lost any true connections on the show with the death of her on screen mother, and the loss of April/Draper/Deborah.. and I do agree with that. I actually thought the show would have done something with the Shelley character that could have connected her to the Raven character.  There were a few scenes where the two would have scenes and size one another up before they would go their separate ways.. so I assumed perhaps they would have been revealed as half-siblings and/or perhaps cousins.  Alas.. not to be.
    • It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.' 
    • And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.
    • @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

    • Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.  
    • I figured the "long" was already implied
