It's in the article. 

"The voting members included three tournament representatives, Gavin Forbes, Charles Humphrey Smith and Mark Webster, and two player representatives, David Egdes and Alex Inglot."

 

 

 

Gimelstob can still be voted out by the player council by majority vote from the 10 players. 

It was the 10 man player council, I think, who voted out Roger Rasheed because he voted on a small increase by tournaments over the course of a year, instead of a more favorable agreement that the players wanted.

I just find it hard to believe that all of Justin's run ins have been other people's fault. So lets just say his former friend did say ....hey your dad was a loser and then Justin attacks him.....he still is in big trouble...no?

Today we’re celebrating beautiful bodies. And we’re going to do that by naming the 10 best bodies in men’s tennis in 2018. We can assure you that it wasn’t an easy task by any means—but we gave it the old college try and here’s what we came up with.

 

This is from Tennis Now...was going to post the video with results but it contains Stan nude.....LOL

 

Number 1 was Rafa....pleaseeeeeeeeee...he has one of the worst bodies I've seen 

 

Dominic Thiem was #6 and too low IMO.

Competition between mom and son.....LOL

I saw that list. No Verdasco? Fucsovics? Fognini? As much as I hate to admit it, Andy Murray? I’m glad they included Tiafoe. He has a fantastic body. Coric, Dimitrov, and Tsonga are no brainers. 

 

Ha. Nadal might not be at his 2000s peak, but his body is deserving of praise.

 

TBH tennis players are often super handsome, but relative to other athletes, their bodies aren’t that aesthetically impressive (to me). Certainly not compared to players in the NFL, basketball, soccer, rugby, swimming, or boxers/wrestlers/MMA fighters. That’s IMO of course, and those sports require different strengths. And what everyone values in men is different. But I’m not that interested in seeing Sascha Zverev or Tsitsipas or FAA with their shirts off. I love Novak, but he’s a twig. But they’re all extremely fit guys.

    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.

    • Full statement from city of Glendale https://www.glendaleca.gov/Home/Components/News/News/9293/16
    • Has anyone ever totted up how many women on GL slept with both father and son(s)? Reva gets a lot of crap for it but she's far from the only one: Claire Beth Blake Olivia Dina Did I miss anyone?  Also, did Reva ever sleep with Phillip? They always had some "closeness" thing, but I don't know if they ever actually did the deed. If they did, then Reva's the clear winner, with TWO families covered, lol!  
    • I think Long was probably planning to have Claire suffer from Post Partum, but she left the writing staff shortly after Claire had Michelle so that element didn't get explored. And I always assumed that when Claire returned in the late 90s/early 00s.. that she was realizing that she messed up by not staying a part of Michelle's life and became resentful/bitter over her previous choices.  That was my theory.
