There is one here: http://www.onthegotennis.com/home/juan-monacos-live-chat-on-twitter.html
Are There Internet Jizz Moppers? There Should Be.
Please watch this video. It is a visual rendering of what it was like to be on Twitter today when pretty much everything that was unexpected and mildly awesome (at least in an entertaining way) happened and we all got to hoot, holler, and snackle together. It was a collective internetgasm, the...
That was my first guess too.
48,098. Hey, They Can't All Be Winners.
Funny story: Back in January, when I was credentialed in Melbourne, I just happened to be standing in line for a sandwich behind a journalist who I (at the time) liked and admired. So I casually introduced myself and, since we had gone back and forth a few times on Twitter, mentioned my Twitter...
I just want to tell you that you are awesome, amazing, ect. Reason is that last spring I found your blog when just searching google for tennis blogs to read to get a feel for the "outside the lines" kinda thing. I read the whole thing in a week (that was not meant to be creepy). I am rambling but basically just wanna say thanks for what you do and keep having fun.

That humblebraggy pic is totally "You think by the sixth time I would figure out how to hold this trophy. No?"
Yawn. Lather, Rinse, Repeat.
Rafa played Daveed in the final. Redux. Rafa beat Daveed in straight sets. Redux. Rafa further solidified that he is a hoss on clay. Redux. I wish I could say it was all entertaining but inevitability just isn't my brand of entertainment. But, you know, carry on, Rafa. It's not like I'...
It was kinda sad to see Petko sputtered out like a Trabant engine. Shame really.
Outdieseled.
Petko always says she's like a diesel engine. She needs some time to get warmed up. But against Caro she raced to a 4-1 40-love lead and it quickly looked like we had an IW redux on our hands. With a chance to pull away and put the set to bed, she stalled, and Caro ran away with it from the...
In the white shirt? That's Laura Robson I believe.
Here's Lookin' At You, Kid.
That's Nadia Lalami. She's 20 years old. She was born in Casablanca, Morocco. She's currently ranked #497. Prior to this week she had played four WTA matches in her career, all first round losses in Monaco. She beat top seeded Rezza today to become the first Moroccan woman to ever get to a...
Game. Set. Match. C-Note.
Holy Auf Geht's, Batman!
During an interview with a writer for the Sony Ericsson Open website (which was never posted, unfortunately, though I have the audio) Petko said that her favorite tournament outside of the Slams was Stuttgart. She cited the fact that it's the only tournament in Germany these days (which blows...
Fran is too awesome for a Porsche. Go Fran, Sam, Petko & Vika!
So...Stuttgart is Awesome.
That's a ridiculous Wednesday OOP. We get a Petko/JJ rematch, Pavs/Vera, Fran/Aga, Nails/Sabine, Sam/Dani, and HOLY SHIT YOU GUYS, Woz/Kucova!!!! Center Court (from 10.30hrs) 1. Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova vs. Vera Zvonareva 2. Francesca Schiavone vs. Agnieszka Radwanska 3. Li Na vs. Sabine L...
I was frankly disappointed that it was a picture of the tv screen. But happy that Andy is resting. These video game nights are adorable.
At Least You're Resting.
Moose is out of Barcelona after getting an MRI on his right elbow and being advised to take 4-5 days rest. You know what that means: VIDEO GAMES!!!! Luv ya, nerd. (Pics: AP, Andy Murray's Twitter)
He is such a nerd. I can totally see him sitting on the couch with Maggie watching these matches he is talking about. I wouldn't mind joining him. Too far?
Air Quotes: NERD.
“The one thing that Rafa does very well is move. When he is behind the baseline, he moves diagonally back to the ball so he takes it at the highest point. If you move across the baseline too much, that’s when the bad bounces can make you mishit the ball. You need to make sure that you always ...
So read a tweet that all of the Major-hosting Nations are out of the World Group 1. To add to that Serena's current holding of the Wimbledon title is the only Major title currently held by a player from Major-hosting country. Congrats to all the winners. It is a miracle that not only has it taken this long for the US to fall out of the world group but that they made two straight finals.
Relegators! Mount Up.
Welcome to the new world order. It just got a little more "Axis-y". As Venus watched on, the super teamy and adorable Germans completely overwhelmed the American teenyboppers with a 5-0 schpanking (that' s how they'd pronounce it). Oh, and Liezel. She was there, too. More on that later. ...
Love a good World War II reference. Liezel seems like a good target.
Axis and Allies.
Axis Alliance 2, Allies 0. Waiting on you, Fran. Feel free to jump on in there too, Kimiko.
That's crazy. Hope she heals up. This shirt seems very relevant: http://preview.tinyurl.com/5sa8cq9
Well...Crap.
How does someone who does *that* on court hurt her ankle off court? It will come as no shock to anyone who knows me that I goddamn motherfucking hate wearing goddamn motherfucking heels. HAAAAAATE. Waterboard me all you want. That shit I can handle. Heels? More like HELLS. Amiright, ladi...
I am really bummed for Petko. But what you said about the Sam comparison I totally thought she was gonna do it and "Pull a Sam". It just came a round early. I am so happy for her though when I got her autograph topped off with a :) at the USO I was the only one of the 5 people waiting for her off the practice courts. That quote about the "thing" is also spot on! Hope she totally rocks clay season! PetkoPower!
The Weakness In Me.
Well, the run is officially over for Petko, but what an amazing run it was. On some level it was reminiscent of Sam's 2010 run at Roland Garros, taking out the #1 player and former #1 player in surprising fashion. I might have let my imagination run a little bit and think that Petko's run wo...
She sure does....
Footie Filarity.
The boys took the footie pitch last night for a charity footie match organized by Novak and Kei to benefit Japan. It was great fun and if you missed the stream that was commentated by a random dude who had no idea who any of the tennis players were, let's just say that much like the above pic...
It was Feli.

I think this was from pre-footie match though. LOL
Everybody Please Calm Your Shit.
There I was, minding my own business, watching my emo boyfriend practice with a crowd of maaaaaaybe six people. It was thoroughly enjoyable. So enjoyable that I actually pulled a nearby chair next to the fence, took a load off and started chatting with an absolutely adorable 84 year old coup...
The commentator totally reminded me of that episode of Full House where Jesse does the radio commentary for this charity hockey match that Joey is for the station that they both work for and is totally clueless. Until Becky interrupts and totally owns the commentary. I totally wanted Judy to do that. As for Rafa being MIA you know he was on the sidelines jumping up and down. Amazing how they all took the time out to do this.

Preach it C-Note. Manners are what matters. No? Also that look on Andy's face.... I wonder what Rafa was talking about. His weekend with Nole perhaps?

Totally agree they couldn't just have Serena playing the video game.
I Like Her Hair. That's About It.
Look, Serena looks great and I'm glad that she's in the ad. But you'll have to pardon me if I'm a little (nay, a lot) uncomfortable with the best female tennis player in the world being asked to throw on some S&M gear and bounce around as sex noises play in the background in order to sell a fu...
Josh is too cute looks like he had a good time.
Joshua Joshovic.
This is Josh. He's been my traveling this year. He braved the heat and rain of Australia and on his first trip to Indian Wells, he went a little nuts. You'll be seeing more of Josh, trust. Much like his patron, Josh is a big fan of Serbs. And they love him, too. Dirty, Petko. Dirty. (...
It was a DF for the break.
Classless.
First, she's not on Twitter. Second, spell her name right. Third, REALLY? You think it's ok to include her Twitter handle in that tweet? Blech.
The other thing is that it's not even Masha's twitter and It's very unbecoming of someone that I have no experience with but seems well respected.

That seems even worst than the first one. *rolls eyes*

This is disgusting and classless in no way can this be okay. I am kinda at a lost for words. Somethings are not to be tweeting using a twitter handle.
