I know people hate the American Men - Sam Querry.   but my God - Someone tell Kevin Anderson to get some sunblock.  I have never even heard of him, looked him up and he's only 30?  I would have thought he was 42 years old.  I haven't taken care of myself and I'm 47 and I look better than him.  Jesus.  SPF, Kevin.  Find it.

How about that Venus?!  Great match and lots of power hitting.  

 

I love Petra and would not have been upset if she had won.  But Vee needs to bring it on home!  She is a true warrior!

 

And of course, leave it up to American women (usually named Williams) to keep American Tennis alive!  Bye Sam!

The American women are leaving the men in the dust. ESPN & Tennis Channel all giddy about Sam was laughable. Brett Haber being the ring leader. He is such an annoying broadcaster. And I wasn't too happy with his Thiem comment the other day. I knew Sam would lose to Kevin and John to Mischa. I can't believe John McEnroe and others believed John would make the finals....ha......yeah right.

 

And it looks like Andy might be out for the rest of the year. I haven't missed him or Novak. I will admit I do miss Stan the Man....as for Milos...blah...he had wrist surgery and will be back in October. Don't miss him at all.

I've never cared for him. He is so bias in his broadcasting and always pimps the American males. He had the gull to praise John Isner for being ranked in the top 20 for so many years. Really?? I didn't know that was newsworthy. And he never gives credit to those he should. During his calling of matches he says the weirdest dumbiest things too. Ugh...I just can't with him.

Take that BH for laughing at Thiem's loss. Now Roger has lost to Juan Martin too!

 

All of ESPN picked Roger and both TC and ESPN were hoping for a semi....aint happening....they already had an epic final at AUO.....time for some different winners...Delpo will beat Nadal.

 

BTW...I didn't think Roger was playing that well at the US Open this year.

Oh and time for your retirement Roger....you were fortunate to win 2 more majors...won't happen again next year.

The forehand shot of Delpo almost hitting Roger in the head and going in was priceless!!

It was apparent that Roger was flustered that not everyone in that stadium was for him minus the Argentinian fans. The true Roger fans were for him but the neutral fans were divided.

Gutted for Venus, she really had a chance to take the match in the third and backed off, for some inexplicable reason. Congratulations to Sloane Stephens and Madison Keys.

The U.S. women have truly made their mark this U.S. Open.

 

 

If I had 2 slams in one year, you wouldn't be able to blast me out of there! If I made two slam finals in one year, you wouldn't be able to blast me outta there!

    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point. 
    • At this point Y&R's next step is to go fully green screen and have the actors Zoom from home.
    • I was just taking about this in the Y&R thread - they desperately need better studio space. 
    • Errol posted that Ed Scott retired
