Wimbledon

There's a game on live just now (bbc2) which is the longest ever game of tennis... they're in the final set and it's 34-34 games each! Almost 7 hours they've been playing. Farkin nora!

Heard about that.... didn't it end up being about 11 hrs? That's way too much tennis for me!

I just watched Roger Federer being beaten by some Czech guy called Thomas Berdych. It was great to see, though Federer was gracious in defeat for sure.

It's interesting that you perceived Federer as being gracious in defeat..... ALL the media coverage in North America seems to focus on him making excuses for his loss on his injury, etc. I personally didn't really care who won but thought it was a good match :)
