That is so cool. You started this forum, when?
That's a great number in such a short time.
Congrats.

it is pretty brand new.
but you folks deserve all the credit.
no way we could have done it without all of us working together.
everybody here brings so much credibility and so much cool, calm, and composed demeanor. people here are smart, reasonable, intelligent, and thoughtful.
I think we have the best people.
WE started this together. everybody has been working on this.
well I am going to grab some sleep.
see you all tomorrow.
wildcard playoffs / 2014 Australian Open links are provided by general CETSVids at the tennis video center.
enjoy all the action that is at your finger tips now.
I joined tennisoplis which has around 46,000 members. I joined only so I can recruit for Camelot.
and I will do that there when the opportunity presents itself.
I think realistically we can get around additional 150 members in 2014. that makes for 200. and maybe we can grab another 100 in 2015.
300 is all we need. that is such a perfect number. and it is a magical number.
Camelot is going to be fun anyway but with 300 it will be a lot more fun. that means a little more activity and more folks can just do their thing here.
pete had the best serve that I have ever seen. never have I seen such perfect mechanics on a serve.
being tall certainly helps. andy is almost 6 foot 4. I am convinced that he can have a dominating serve with more work.
he has no problem hitting a serve in the 135 MPH range.
now the time has come to learn better placement and also that 2nd serve can be a lot better.
Never heard of tennisoplis before but you are doing a good job in recruiting people, herc.
Andy's first serve is pretty lethal and dominating but he needs to make it more consistent to the point where he can rely on it when all else fails. There are bad days at the office after all.
And I'd say rather than focusing on placing the 2nd serve, disguising it is more crucial. Most of the time, Sampras' opponents couldn't even guess which way the serve was going and that involved both serves. So it's not just the placing of the serve but also the right speed, precision, disguise and the body language that made those serves very effective especially at crucial moments and had his opponents second guessing. Pete served especially well while he was under great pressure. One can't be selective about it and go for the stats only - that doesn't tell you the whole story. One needs to be there with him week in week out to see how he pulled it off when he needed to.
Boris Becker says that andy and lendl inspired him:

I am not sure if this has become a trend though after Murray hiring Lendl as a coach, because now Federer is hitting with Edberg, Nihikori has hired Michael Chang and now Nole with Becker. It sure feels that way. I don't know if this also is a trick to initiate the intimidate factor in players when they look at the other player's box and see who's sitting there. Who knows really.
I don't see Sampras being the coach of anyone to be honest. The job is too controversial for Sampras to give it even a decent thought. Although, all those Sampras haters in the UK will probably start loving him should Murray seeks help from him re: serves.
Now the ^^ above comment does open the door for Owen to make another sarcastic remark. I almost miss it. ha ha
Good stuff!
Very interesting.
Alright folks, after consuming a couple of cups of coffee this fine morning, I now need to go and clean the house a bit. I shall return later.
Hope you guys are enjoying the time. I always love this time of the year as it feels so festive and uplifing. Even the harsh winter can't take that away, innit.
A very lovely holiday season to you all and a very bright New Year to look forward to! And Merry Christmas to you all who celebrate. I do even though I am not Christian but I see myself as a human being first, who acknowledges that all beings are equal and the same.

where the hell is the great Baron anyway?
I think the next great combination will be nishikori/chang.
chang can probably take nishikori to the next level but it will take an extreme sacrifice:
nishikori will first have to take his fitness higher than it has ever been. and after that chang should be able to help him achieve great things on the tour.

In time, you rascal!
But for the moment, wishing all a happy christmas! Hope everyone has a pleasant break and best wishes for 2014.

I have a better question to ask - where the hell are you anyway? Clearly you are not where you typically are judging by the amount of posts from you the past few days. Are you on some island with some hottie enjoying what we call life? Don't lie, just speak the truth only please.
