strange things happen in sports.
the whole world picked Denver in the superbowl but they are going to get their asses kicked by seattle.
nadal had never even lost a set to stan and had beaten him 12 times in a row.
this was supposed to be a done deal for nadal. I hit the sack knowing that rafa was going to take it in 4 sets.
the whole world also picked nole to take the aussie crown again and then he goes out in the quarters.
at the same time I was nervous about it for some damn reason.
Quite indeed. As they say, truth is stranger than fiction and Stan did look awfully determined.
As to your last line, I totally feel you. I had a sneaky feeling about it too.
Although I was very happy for Stan I did feel very bad for you, herc. I know how much you wanted to Nadal to get this. ((((((((((((((hug))))))))))))))
You know that he still has more than enough opportunities available to him so don't worry too much about it.
thanks emma.
basically nadal has to improve his game and his fitness a little bit and then he has 3-4 years to grab 4-5 slams.
I think he will do it one way or another. of course we know he will do it the hard way.
I will try to post some andy pics at the andy center tomorrow. I will try to find some davis cup pics.
I had a feeling that andy was going to come back strong in 2014. he is well on his way.
furthermore I expect him to do well on clay this year. it will help his cause at Wimbledon.
Are you into superbowl, herc? I think it's quite a dumb sport. lolol I also find rugby, boxing, wresting and Japanese sumo really dumb. Sumo just takes the cake. It's just seems obese people in diapers. lolol I hope I am not offending Japanese people here. I just don't like the sport that is all.
emma we have eliminated one center and now we will get rid of another one.
we will eliminate 2 centers but keep the boards in case they need to be revived again.
I am going to place sara's board and laurice's board under the "little notes by Carmen" center.
you had the right idea. there is just not enough activity here yet so might as well streamline it a tiny bit.
nobody is losing their boards at all. all of them are intact and they will forever be intact.
a promise is a promise at Camelot.
we are just reducing the centers by 2 to make it a little easier and quicker to scan the whole place.
one should be able to scan all of Camelot in mere seconds to see where they might feel like posting.
I must admit I did not notice. I was just too busy reading and watching tennis today. Good stuff, herc. We can always add those back if there's a demand for it but for now, if there's no activity then there's no point in keeping them. You know we can always expand when we grow more.
2 centers are gone but their boards are alive and kicking.
the last center at the bottom does not have much activity for now so that is a good place for it.
I am just keeping up with the score on twitter. I don't have the time and the patience for football anymore.
its tennis that is in my blood. that suma wrestling is total waste of time. I would not watch if they paid me good money for it.
also I just got him from running around all day so I need to read and catch up with the sports news and stuff.
today I will add some content to the rafa center and then it will be andy's turn tomorrow.
I have 40 followers on twitter already and I have 64 likes for the Camelot elite tennis society.
so in time--when these people are more comfortable with me---we will ask them to have a look at Camelot.
I don't want to push anybody or force anybody.
we know our time will come.
does anybody know if andy is playing Dubai?
I noticed you moved Andy Murray Centre. I do think Nole, Nadal and Federer all deserve to be at the top. But since Emma's World belongs to me, I can see why you moved it.
Embla's Art Centre can come off since she's not here for a while now and there are only 1 or 2 posts. There might be more like those. I was thinking that since we are still at the very early stage of growing, perhaps keeping things more concise and precise would be a great touch. We can always expand later. Masterclass Corner, CETSVIDs Global Tennis Videos, Emma's World, The Truth's Rant and Rave, Clay Death's Lounge all sound very promising since we contribute all the time. The tennis pro players centre should always be there but we can divide it into two - one for ATP and one for WTA. And we can also keep the Off Topic Centre and keep all the other stuff like the Movies, News, Games, Classified etc. there. And of course Carmen's (is it fancymany?) Religious should stay but within the same section so that we can keep Sara, Laurice etc. as well, all in one place otherwise it feels redundant. We can work on a better layout of the forum. What do you think?

No, he's next tourney is Acapulco (500 on hard for the first time). After that he's scheduled to play Indian Wells and Miami. He's staying within the same region. After that he'll be heading to Monte Carlo.

affirmative lady emma. we will keep looking for ways to streamline the centers while retaining everybody's boards.
you know a lot of these folks will be back here. a promise is a promise at Camelot.
we will never ever eliminate anybody's board.
we will just reduce the number of centers.
now the least active stuff rests at the bottom.
check out "Emma's jokes". I just added some.
I will add more later.
I decided on a few business jokes.
I cant wait to see andy on clay in monte carlo.
I think he is going to do well there this year.
I will move embla's board to the multi purpose center at the bottom for now.
I posted some andy murray davis cup pics at his picture and art gallery.
also check out this joke. I thought this one was pretty good. I also posted it at your joke thread:
Three guys go in for a job interview, all at the same office. The first one goes in for his interview and the interviewer says, "What's the first thing you see when you look at me?" The guy says, "That's not too hard, you've got no ears." The interviewer says, "That's it, get out, you'll never be seen around here again." The second man takes his turn and is asked the same question. The applicant replies, "Uh, you've got no ears." The interviewer throws the guy out, cursing and yelling that he'll never get a job with his company. As he is leaving, the second guy warns the third guy, "Listen man, whatever you do, don't say he hasn't got any ears. He's so touchy with the ear thing." "Okay," said man #3 on his way into the office. Once inside he is told, "Name the first thing you notice when you look at me." The guy answers, "That's easy, you wear contacts." The interviewer was flabbergasted, "How on earth did you know that, son?" "What? Are you stupid? You can't wear glasses, you've got no ears!"
nole is probably getting married this year.
was it general Tee that predicted this?
