Tomic is giving me life.

 

Tomic to female umpire: I've got Covid... The rapid test is wrong...its crap...I've got Covid... The test is wrong.... How can you make me play with Covid? After the match is over how much you want to bet I test positive for Covid? If I test positive you pay for dinner ....if I don't test positive I'll pay for our dinner

He only mustered one game in the first set...he kept taking his shirt off and the Aussie fans kept whistling/flirting with him and they were guys

All this and at the beginning of the year he said he was taking his game seriously and returning to the top 10.

Sabalenka is a whole ass mess.  I cannot describe it so you have to see it for yourselves.  She breaks down crying in between points.  Her serve was an abomination.  She couldn't get it under control.  One serve never hit the ground and almost went into the stands.  What was she doing on her downtime?  

 

Ostapenko - did she lose her clothing deal?  Did anyone else see her outfit?  My God.  Looked like granny shorts. 

 

Radacanu - bageled and breadsticked by Rybakina and she laughed as she won the one game to keep from getting double bageled.  Perhaps that's the way she copes but this performance solidifies the USO fluke and how the field dropped the ball.

It's sad though that the media and the tennis one aren't being honest about how bad joker looks. 

Lots of former tennis players are trying to have it both ways. 

The French open already said Novak would be allowed to play without being vaccinated. 

I just don't get it. After all the lock downs and joker gets to prance everywhere unvaccinated... Horrible

I feel like this has been me on this thread. OMG. My spirit animal is an Oztrawlian news anchor.

This is especially shocking given that the French national assembly passed a (rather controversial) law last week restricting entry to restaurants, leisure and sporting venues to only those with proof of vaccination. A negative test no longer suffices. I imagine that extends to French Open ticket-holders!

    • Once Johnny Dallas' cut himself off from Laurie Ann Karr and their son, and once Laurie successfully recovered from her mental problems, she wanted a new, fresh, and healthy start for the next chapter of her life. She legally reverted her name and changed John Victor's  surname to Karr. After moving to the country (when Teri  Keane was dropped from the show), Bill and Martha Marceau legally adopted Jennifer, the baby girl whom they had earlier taken in when the child's biological mother, Taffy Simms (and other bio family members) proved to be unfit to raise her. Jennifer legally and emotionally became a Marceau, and gave that name to her own daughter, whom Jennifer birthed through surrogacy as a single parent. Et...voila! The Karr and Marceau legacies live on.

    • BLQ is having second thoughts regarding putting her baby up for adoption. Chase is upset he can't tell Dante. So both are putting this on at lulus feet. Saying she is holding it over them. Lulu is doing none of this. 
    • Yes she absolutely was involved in that story which seems to have gone nowhere.  She didn't start to remove herself from the writing until 1973.
    • Y'all are bringing back great memories of AMC 2.0 for me.  I haven't thought about it and the new characters in so long, well since it aired, and I plan to go re-watch it now. When AMC ended, I finally came to peace with it and accepted that I will never watch an hour of a TV show daily in my life again... something that I had been doing since I was 6-7 years old. I was starting a new career, relationship, and chapter in life when AMC 2.0 came out.  I found a way to watch it, but things felt differently for me at the time and when it was so short-lived and gone, it became such a distant memory, sadly.
    • That's a great point. I wish the writing could find those nuances.
    • After all Lulu's been through with her coma and missing years I can get her being on the sensitive side especially when talking to her mother.  I was thinking it was more a culmination of everything than just this one particular problem. 
    • I see her moral dilemma, too, and I don't think Lulu was out of line. I just felt it was overboard for her to break down in tears over her dilemma.
    • I also think the fact Lulu chose abortion and Brook Lynn chose to give a baby up for adoption instead when they were in similar situations adds another layer to this.  The writing doesn't really state this, but I can see Lulu slightly spiraling about thinking she could have an adult child out there if she made a different choice.  Both woman made the right choices for themselves at the time, but I can see both making parallels to their decisions.
    • SO good!  I agree. Classic soap opera and it was a cliffhanger I've been craving for weeks now.  First time in a while that I can't wait for tomorrow's episode!
