Members ChitHappens Posted September 7, 2020 Members Share Posted September 7, 2020 Who cares what wacko stan say? It's like they want the crazies to continue harassing the victim. I hate wacko stsns! Onto FAA. I hope he cries himself to sleep tonight. Thiem was his usual good but FAA went away after the 1st set. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 7, 2020 Members Share Posted September 7, 2020 Exactly. Every fanbase has crazy bullies (Federer, Nadal, and Serena all have plenty of unhinged stans), and the Internet has made it easier to harass people. Yeah, that was a disappointing effort from Felix. The good thing is he’s only 20 and already making the second week of a Slam, so he has lots of room to grow from this. But when you’re supporting an athlete, you really want to see them fight. WTF happened to Berrettini’s serve? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted September 7, 2020 Members Share Posted September 7, 2020 (edited) It’s funny, though: I was seeing some Novak fans presenting some conspiracy theories that weren’t that far off from that. It’s embarrassing to see people behave this way, but you see a lot of crazy stuff on the Interwebs.

Members ChitHappens Posted September 7, 2020 Members Share Posted September 7, 2020 Oh ok but like Faulkner said, it's not much of a stretch. Deranged Djoker fans have been really trashing her even talking about her decreased son. Where's DD? Can't wait for her/his thoughts on Djoker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) This... is not good from Frances. He’s getting demolished by a subpar Medvedev. Ash Barty basically calling it a day for 2020. Won’t defend her RG title. Can’t say that I blame her. Paris seems like a disaster waiting to happen, and she can’t train with her coach anyway.

Members Faulkner Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 Glad he came to the defense of the lineswoman. Some Nolefam were saying unconscionable things about the woman’s family and the tragic loss of a son she reportedly suffered. ESPN’s coverage of the actual matches is predictably awful. So much reliance on studio talk and interviews above what’s happening on the court. They obviously don’t feel like the tennis will capture interest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fevuh Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 Crazed fans like that have no bottom. A rule is a rule, and it was a careless thing to do. I had a girl punch me in the throat when I was in High School for no reason. I was friends with her. It took the air out of me and I had trouble breathing for a couple of hours, and it hurt for a week. It's not funny and when I saw it happen to the lines woman I could tell she was having the same reaction I did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 Coric choked in the second set. He should be up two sets to none. I knew Sasha was going to scream after winning the second set. Why? He's playing like sh!t! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 He escaped. I wonder if those long matches are catching up to Coric, even if only mentally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) @Faulkner Thanks for posting tomorrow schedule. And the ratings are down almost 50% from last year. Edited September 8, 2020 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted September 8, 2020 Members Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) This USO should prompt a complete scrapping of line umpires, and I’m not even talking about what happened with Novak. IMO there have been an unusual amount of garbage calls throughout the tournament (which has always been one of the worst of the Majors) at critical moments, which has made this a frustrating watch. Just let Hawkeye make the calls. It’s the final verdict anyway in case of disputes! Let this be a Serena/Capriati moment.
