Australian Open

Good luck Andy Murray, in the Oz open against Federer some time tonight. Nice tae have a Scot win it for change!
Federer's comment yesterday "Would be the first time a Scot has won anything in, like, 150,000 years"... cheeky fecker!

There has not been such a strong woman in tennis since Mantina Navratalova. Serena is impressive. Andy has a good chance, but Federer is playing so tough. I always considered Federer to have more class than to make small comments. I am 1/2 Scottish. I hope Andy wins. Federer could spare a title or 2.

My heart says Murray, but my head knows that Federer's big match experience will be hard to overcome. & the rest of me can't wait for the whole damn thing to be over. So that Channel 7 resumes it's normal programmes (not that they're that flash, but it's a damn site better than 16 hours of tennis a day)

If I had my way, neither of them would win... Let's see Del Potro again! Both Murray and Federer are way too big for their britches! Huge egos (albeit talented dudes).
