LMAO at Murray losing to Sam....LOLOLOLOLOL....So glad he lost even though Sam is a dumb ass.....LOL

 

Lawd...a Sam vs Cilic semis....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

Novak out too!  Berdych needed that win or he could've dropped out of the top 20. Another semi.....damn had Thiem beaten him on Monday....Dominic would have made another semi....oh well.....let's see if Berdych can make another final and take Roger out.

 

The race to #1 is more exciting on the men's side than the woman's. Murray will hold on to it and hasn't won a major this year....LOL....Nadal will stay #2 and depending on what Roger does....#3 to #5 is still up in the air. With the loss Milos drops to #9 in the rankings behind Thiem and Kei and barely ahead of Sasha and Grigor who are tied at #10.

And Brett Haber is like a school girl all giddy about it. Now TC thinks the Americans can take both titles.

Thank gawd Venus beat Knota. It would have been a nightmare to see Konta in the finals.

I don't know if I mentioned before but I'm in DC.  Brett Haber was a local sports anchor here and I still have no idea why he made it to where he is.  He was not impressive to me at all as a sports anchor and then he left and started popping up like Dandelions on TV...

He is horrible! He is so bias and his comments are so stupid! I don't know why they replaced Bill Macatee with him. Bill is so much better and very professional. If I owned TC....Brett would have been fired already.

Lawd help you!

Some are wondering if Joker is out for the US Open? Will he need surgery? Will he miss the rest of the year? I won't miss him. I hope he doesn't reappear till next year or in two years...LOL

Brad Gilbert - so funny.  RE: Federer he said something like, everyone all up in arms, "oh no he's not playing his best, he's not playing well for him, oh my he's got a runny nose!  Well, he won in straight sets in a grand slam semi.  He's doing horribly."  LOLLL

Joker needs a break.  6 months off and Roger won Oz 2017, Indian wells, Miami, skipped RG because it wasn't in his best interest and about to take Wimby.  If Joker continues like this, he won't be remembered for his 2013 - 2016 stellar work.  He'll be a flop.

He has been told he needs surgery. He said he is afraid of surgery....LOL...some are calling him a baby.....LOL....He is saying he will take a long break...vacation....I am thinking we will not see him until next year.

Eh...I wasn't impressed with Roger today. For Berdych to be in ever set was surprising.....I hope the new generation wins the US Open cause I am sick of Roger already...ESPN ran his interview once again for the millionth time....really??

 

And of course Sam lost...not surprised....now they are making excuses that he ran out of gas....nice try.....not buying it...

    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with. 
    • How did this come to be?
