ajzepp Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 wow, okay, I'm impressed with him.....I still think he's goofy looking, but he's got more mental game than I thought. I'm surprised to hear Johnny Mac say that an overhead is "the easiest shot". I used to be able to rocket an overhead smash like you wouldn't believe, but after a few sets it's NOT an easy shot, IMO.
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 this match is really turning now. its 4-4 and bagdatis is overpowering andre. agassi is up to serve though.
ajzepp Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 the two coolest "times" during the tennis season: Sunday morning on centre court at Wimbledon, and night tennis as the US Open
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 no doubt... i'm just getting used to the blue court though!
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 5-4 agassi, with the other guy serving...
ajzepp Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 no doubt... i'm just getting used to the blue court though! 758193[/snapback] Yeah, it has too much of an "indoor tennis" feel to it when the camera angle is tight. You watching in high def, by chance?
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 no HD here... watching it on the old 19" samsung. by the way, bagdatis just broke agassi. we might be looking at a 5th set.

He looks to be wearing down
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 yeah, there's a whole set to go here, but it looks like agassi might be toast. Hope i'm wrong though, but bagdatis is working him all over the court and has really taken the physical game.

He's playing one of the greatest players of all time in the toughest tourney in tennis, fifth set, under the lights.....this will be good.

Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 oh snap... baghdatis is in an injury time out!
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 geesh, okay, well be safe man....just nice to see another tennis fan on here 758214[/snapback] if i may ask, where do you play?
ajzepp Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 oh snap... baghdatis is in an injury time out! 758218[/snapback] Man, if Andre loses here I'm gonna be totally bummed....I'm not ready for him to get knocked out just yet
GoodBye Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Man, if Andre loses here I'm gonna be totally bummed....I'm not ready for him to get knocked out just yet 758224[/snapback] Neither am I. Go Agassi!
ajzepp Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 if i may ask, where do you play? 758222[/snapback] I haven't played in a good while, unfortunately. I started at the age of 4, though, and played competitively up through my teens. It's probably the one sport I could have really considered sticking with and going pro one day....I was pretty good. I'm totally out of shape now, though...even LanaK6 could beat me, lol. But I absolutely love the game.
ajzepp Posted September 1, 2006 Author Posted September 1, 2006 YEAH BABY!!!! BREAK THAT BEYOTCH!!!!!
Corp000085 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 wow, that was a hell of a shot by andre!!
