I’ve seen him on TC doing interviews, but I’ve never seen him on Live. Only Annacone, Chanda, Jim Courier, Tracy, or Lindsay with Brett, Steve, or Mary moderating. But I don’t watch all the time. He’s attractive. 

 

TC absolutely should make a statement. Justin has gotten away with so much over the years. I wonder why they feel such a need to protect him. He’s expendable. Maybe he knows where the bodies are buried.

Yeah he has been on several times with Annacone, Chanda and Steve on TC Live.

Lawd...this guy has that much dough to have a production company? He is an eye sore. I've never cared for his tennis or him as a human being....he's a pompous ass who is now a supposed stalker etc etc.......he's a weirdo.

It's about time someone spoke out. It's too bad its a retired player although he is still active in doubles and coaching in the ATP tour. 

And replies to Isner to dump him as a coach and for TC to fire him. Let's see what happens.

Croatia fielded their best team, which is what a team captain does when they want a win, while France did not.

 

With his current ranking, there's no way that Tsonga should've been on that team while Monfils and Simon (two players who have repeatedly beaten Cilic, Monfils never having lost to Cilic or Coric) were left off the team. 

 

Lucas Pouille, who clinched the tie for France last year, was thrown in at the last minute after not even being named to the team.

France/Noah was simply messy.  At least he's stepping down, which a good thing.

 

Although with the future of Davis Cup being so uncertain, I don't know what any of this is leading into.

 

Nevertheless, congratulations to the Croatian Davis Cup team for winning the last Davis Cup as we know it, lol.

I know Yannick and Gael have been beefing ever since Gael pulled out of that Davis Cup match a couple years ago. You’d think they’d have squashed that for the greater good. 

 

Not to take anything away from Cilic, who was more clutch than we’ve seen him since maybe Queen’s Club.

 

On we go to uncertain times...

It's not just Monfils actually.  He also couldn't come to an agreement with Simon in how Simon disagreed with how Noah would seemingly call players at the last minute.  Two players who have had the most success against Cilic, in particular, turn out to be the ones that Noah couldn't work with.  Go figure!

  Two players who'd always stepped in previously in Davis Cup.  Noah had favorites and it wasn't either of these two.

 

Apparently you didn't read Noah's latest interview where he pleads that his biggest regret was his failure with Monfils.  He takes very little ownership of the situation

    • It actually felt like TM-G was a bit softer in her scenes with nu-Ted that kind of matched his meeker energy as Ted on Friday. I was very curious how she’d play off him and now I have my answer.
    • My thoughts exactly! Fantastic find @DRW50!  
    • That was interesting; thanks. Courtney looks tired and/or bored AF, LOL!
    • 5-12   Lord have mercy.   I'm not sure how I feel about it. Perhaps what I said last week or the week before last. If the highlight of a soap is what people are wearing and not the writing, that's not a good thing. And that was how I was feeling watching this. There was not anyone that I was interested in seeing in the episode outside of Daniel and Sally tbh. Because Daniel continues to be the only thing that humanizes Phyllis for me.    I could care less for the Billy/Sally scenes where he's woe is me. I could care less about Kyle/Claire since the writers took all the drama right out of the pairing. Humanized or not, I could care less for Giggly Heffa.    I barely care for Teriah. But for me, it's nice to see something going on with them. Though it seems so horribly contrived.    I liked the costume designer appears to be trying to find individual styles for some of the characters. For me, Tessa's with the boots stood out given her indie musician history. It seems like Claire's style is coming into its own with block colors. I like Kyle's wardrobe is loosening up somewhat. I even loved the striped dress that Phyllis had on.    But again...where is the writing?
    • It was reported that Jane Wyman absence in the final season was due to health (it's documented that Jane was diabetic) but I believe her episodes being cut was a budget mode move. Similar move Dallas pulled in 1990, it was reported that Barbara Bel Geddes retired due to health (it's documented that Barbara had a heart condition) but I say salary dump. Jane Wyman only acted once after Falcon Crest, a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, but she lived another 14 years after that. Barbara Bel Geddes did not act again after her last episode of Dallas in 1990 but she lived another 15 years after that. The trifecta of suck at Lorimar was Les Moonves, Leonard Katzman, and Michael Filerman. It was a pattern across all three CBS primetime soaps in the off the rails plus budget mode era to salary dump the long-time female cast members and bring on sweet young things hired on the cheap. 
    • To be fair, more than half of them are dead now. 
    • Kat may be a privileged elitist but that's not entirely true.  Kat first met Eva when Eva was snooping at Nicole's desk, so Kat's first impression of Eva wasn't very good.  Plus, Kat's instinct to not trust Eva was 100% right.  Kat's attitude toward Eva had nothing to do with Eva not "bowing" down to Kat, and her feelings toward her half-sister is very justified......minus the making fun of Eva's clothes of course. 
    • They said that this has metastasized to his bones, but the type of "aggressive" prostate cancer he has is actually very common and is treatable, or at least manageable. So the headline is misleading.   Apparently this type of cancer is hormonal which makes it somewhat treatable? But still, of course, sad.  Thinking of him and his loved ones.
    • Kat is a spoiled brat princess and Silk Press Sheila called her out on it.  Silk Press Sheila is someone not to mess with. I was actually scared for Kat when she was alone with Silk Press Sheila and recording their conversation.
    • It is funny that Stephanie and Philip still hide/blush/get embarrassed at the sight of each other.  Meanwhile, Kate's pouring coffee for Rafe at the pub as if they're only casual acquaintances.  Although, if Kate blushed every time she saw one of her former lovers, she'd be permanently red.
