The marathon match is over!!!!! 11 hour match is done.

Unbelievable match by both players. This match will be remembered for a very long time and it will never happen again in our lifetime.

Roddick out :( Sometimes reporters ask SUCH stupid questions.... I am glad there are people like Roddick who call them out on it. One reporter asked after the game if he will feel pissed off tomorrow when he wakes up? Roddick just looked at him, shook his head and asked if he would feel pissed off the day after he was fired. He then went on to say I think we are better than those type of questions.

On the women's side, I'd say its shaping up to be another Williams final.... although I am rooting for Kim Clijsters. I think that would be a nice story considering she hasn't played this tourny since 2006 due to all those injuries and retiring.

Oh I am so glad that pompous ass arrogant Roddick lost!! He'll never win another major again. He needs to work on his awful backhand and his volleys.

I hope Kim wins the tournament. I am rooting for her too!!

Both Venus and Kim Clijsters are out! Serena's got this tournament.

I'm not a Roddick fan but that question by the reporter was stupid.

The final match has got to be Federer vs Nadal. Anybody else would be a disappointment.

Damn Kim lost! :angry::( Wimbledon on the women's side is just as bad as The French Open. We are either going to have a lame ass winner or Serena again...how boring!!

Now the men....so many good matches tomorrow

Federer vs Berdych.......I hope Berdych wins! I am liking his game as of late. Federer has enough Wimbledons already. Give someone else a chance

Nadal vs Soderling.....I hope Soderling wins! Not a Nadal fan at all

Djokovic vs The guy who beat Roddick...lol.....Djokovic...hope he wins

Murray vs Tsonga....ugh...cant stand either one...but hate Murray more...he sucks....go Tsonga....lol

I'd love a Berdych vs Soderling final.....or Soderling vs Djokovic final....I'll take a Federer vs Soderling final.....I just hope Nadal nor Murray nor Tsonga win Wimbledon....lol

I still have a lot of guys left who I like still in the tournament.

The women suck as usual...ugh

That Bulgarian who defeated Venus today beat her at the Australian Open too, so it appears she has her number. I am glad it won't be an all Williams final. They get old. Serena I think will most likely win now. Poor Kim :( I was as I said rooting for her.

On the men's side.... I don't really care. I am not an overly huge fan of any of the big names left. I wouldn't mind seeing Murray just because he's a Brit.

Could the era of Federer dominance be coming to an end? He hasn't looked strong all tournament and now is at his lowest world ranking in quite a few years.

I was hoping the Swede would have beat Nadal, oh well.

Federer drops to #3 in the world. He didn't give Berdych any credit. He said his back hurt and his right leg too. I've always respected Federer but to say that Berdych won cause you are injured. Come on Roger!

Damn I was hoping Soderling would be Nadal. I just cant stand Nadal's game. It is so boring to watch!! Soderling just completely went away!!

Tsonga...blah...he just tanked after winning the first set. I wanted Murray out too!!

He said he couldnt give his best because of his back and right leg. He said he was taking 2 weeks off. Ummm...hello Roger...but there is no tournament that he plays anyways after Wimbledon. Things don't pick up till mid to late July with the summer hard court season!

It's like give credit to Berdych! He did play very well!

    • Me saying all the praise for Eva/Ambyr. Y'all..

    • Yeah, something is not right here. I will continue to have doubts about Leslie being Eva's mother for the time being. Until at least the writing/behavior of her character changes. She is acting way too cold/uncaring/hateful to be her mother. I know as soap fans, we have seen our share of rough around the edges, bad acting mothers. But even some of the roughest of soap mothers have acted like they love their children. Even if they don't always make the best decisions regarding them. Or are often at odds with them. Leslie has not shown anything for me to show that she even cares about Eva, even a little. It's all about what Leslie/wants needs and what Eva can do for her. As soon as she felt like Eva no longer served a purpose for her she threw her away. I am interested in seeing what happens with Leslie going forward. She really doesn't have anyone on her side. Eva at least now has Ted and Tomas to a lesser degree. I think that some others will eventually come to accept Eva in time.
    • I'm looking forward to seeing the first 18 minutes or so that we missed earlier this episode. But I loved what I saw today: I thought that what I saw of Bill's/Ted's interaction was realistic and interesting. I know we have hardly seen them interact, but I think that they have nice chemistry together. And Iiked the dialogue that they had about their roles/mistakes in this whole paternity reveal/hurting Nicole. I would like to see them interact more together in the future. I also enjoyed Dani being there for Nicole and giving her good advice. I did lol when Dani said she wanted to take off her earrings and be left alone with Leslie, Eva, Bill and Ted... I like Nicole as always acting mature and measured and trying to process what has happened to her along with support from her sister. I like that her family supported her and gave her space (including her parents) and then she went to them when she was ready. I enjoyed her scenes with her parents at the end. Speaking of parents, Leslie continues to act like this. Her behavior towards Eva is trash and she literally threw the picture of them together at the end in the trash. She really doesn't deserve Eva, and I continue to wonder if she really is her mother. She is just too cold towards her and sees her as a means to an end. I really wonder if she thought that Ted was going to help Eva. Or if she was hoping that he would turn her away as well. I'm glad he helped her and wants to try and have a relationship with her. It will cause conflict with the rest of the family, but it's the right thing for him to do, IMO.
    • What an interesting read @Paul Raven. Thank you so much for posting it. Annette
    • She’s riveting. And how she transitioned from utter devastation after the confrontation with Leslie to hopeful in the Ted scene—so seamless. She’s easily the most exciting actress I’ve seen in daytime in a looooooooong time. If she’s not the face of this show in a few months, they’re leaving money on the table.
    • Yeah either Leslie is a demented mother, or Leslie is not the real mother.
    • Ambyr is killing it per usual. The Eva and Leslie confrontation was GOOD. I gotta admit Ted taking in Eva and promising to do right by her made me cry.    See, he can still be a decent guy

    • Leslie threw Eva's photo in the kitchen garbage can.

      She threw out that picture of Eva. Im convinced Eva is NOT her daughter. She has no maternal instinct. Thats Nicole's kid   awww Ted is getting her an apartment and he said he would never leave his daughter. I love it! I bet it will be better than that dump Leslie had her in and she better not open the door for her
