French Open

... As we know, Tennis is one of my favorite games. The french Open starts end of may, then we have a pause mid June, then Wimbledon, Then The tour, then a pause, then the U.S. Open....

Well.... My Girl Justine Henin Retired a few weeks ago.... I'm absolutely heart Broken. Her reasoning was that "she wanted to be a Woman", apparently playing tennis was inconsistent with that thesis. Seems like you can have a kid, till you are 35... or longer, Seems like if the problem is your not getting laid, you should probably just put out more...

Here is my bitch, there are 2 parts to a great athletes career, becoming a champion, and then dealing with the Decline, and fighting to stay on top, or fighting to come back... It's a very amazing thing.. but quitting when you are top, robs us from watching the second half of a brilliant carriers... And the Real Grace of a Champion.

Also, if you have Dish, the Tennis channel does the coverage of the french.... it starts at 3am, and in the early rounds they run 6 channels, 5 are a raw feed from the courts, so you can catch any match being played, your favorites... as opposed to whatever Sharapova, or Nadal are doing. And it gives you a chance to watch as all the Americans who can't play on clay, get their brains stomped in in the first and second rounds.

That is all
