Well that was a little... anticlimatic.
Despite the fact I was wearing my Switzerland shirt in support of Rog, I called him every rude name under the sun (I wanted at least four sets dammit!) and then invented some new ones for Andy when he lost that break in the second set, even though the poor sweetheart played some awesome tennis. Roger was just too good, scarily so.
I have also come to the conclusion that I should never be a commentator, considering my remarks to Andy throughout this were mainly along the lines of: "THIS IS BRAIN." *points to head* "CAN BE USED AT WILL!" or "There's this thing Andy, called moving. It's where you MOVE your feet - wow, I know! Cool eh? And guess what? You can even do it faster, and it's called running. WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRY IT SOMETIME SOON?"
I love these players, I do. You just really couldn't tell during that match. *grins* I think I perplexed the parental when I was hissing "Double fault!" at Roger every time he went to serve.
(And um, can I just say that when I begged for a twenty minute rain break at the end of the second set, I was quite freaked out when, as if on cue, they had a twenty five minute rain break? Yeah. That was weird.)
They both deserve hugs though. Roger for crying and Andy for... well, not crying after all that.
Dude. I've officially been a tennis fan for an entire year. I never stick with anything that long. o.O
