THE MOST HATED MEN IN TENNIS

June 30, 2009

0

I’ve dumped on women’s tennis enough for poor play, bad sportsmanship and on court sound effects that I thought it was high time I singled out some male pros for deviant/annoying behaviors, especially since today featured a match between two of the most hateds and a lovely piece of sexism courtesy of the AELTC. With one […]

Roddick & Wife Argue Via Twitter Andy Roddick’s wife, swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker, launched a sneak-attack on her husband after he criticized what he described as her “crappy” taste in music. The venue? Twitter, where she revealed to the world that Roddick is a Rick Astley fan. “I busted my wife on some of her […]

While we were wringing our hands over Dubai last week, actual tennis was being played. In Dubai, the tournament that never should have happened, Venus beat Serena in a 7-6 third-set tiebreaker and then defeated Virginia Razzano in the final. This is the first time Venus has been back in the top 5 in 5 […]

Joker switched from Wilson to Head racquets just two weeks before his Aussie Open title defense. Is that a good idea?

Dear Greg and Chrissie: Instant Karma and All…

…It’s a Bitch You would think from watching the ABC golf talking heads over the weekend that the two blonde icons of the ‘80s, Greg Norman and Chris Evert, were living the Greatest Love of All Time. They apparently did. It was just a few weeks ago that they had a $2 million wedding in […]

HE IS LEGEND

You know men’s tennis achieved something truly epic when the match transcends the court and spills over onto… The Gossip Pages. That’s right, Nadal hit both TMZ and gossip guru Ted Casablanca on E! (who judged Rafa as a hottie on the do-me meter). So Rafa apparently has a “secret” girlfriend (yeah, we all wondered […]

Gossip: Stepanek and Vaidisova to Marry? Or it’s a Prank.

January 22, 2008

I almost forgot to post about Radek Stepanek and Nicole Vaidisova applying for a marriage license in Bradenton, Florida, where they both train. (Hat tip: Tennis Info Blog). Nicole was on ESPN last week denying it in a half-assed, giggly way. When I saw it I thought “oh shit, how stupid are you.” All I […]

Serena Wants to Know Who Moved Her Cheese

Although the tennis doping and betting scandals contributed to the genesis of this blog, it was Serena Williams’ official website that finally pushed me over the edge. Serena’s blog is full of fascinating discourses on bad relationships and tips for leading a better life.  You see, Serena read a book last fall that changed her […]

This Blog’s For You

January 11, 2008

I have toyed with becoming a blogger for a couple of years now. But two things always stopped me. First, I saw how narcissistic most blogs are and I resolved not to join the community of navel-gazers gabbing about their breakfast cereal. I’m self-centered enough as it is – I don’t need a blog to […]
