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!

    • 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 
    • You'll be very impressed
