From the AP...
"Stanislas Wawrinka beat Sam Querrey [not even touching the pronunciation] in five sets to put two Swiss men in a Grand Slam quarterfinals for the first time in the Open era—and keep the Americans out of the U.S. Open quarters for the second straight year.
The U.S. men, meanwhile, had at least one quarterfinalist at their home major each of the first 41 years of the Open era. That changed in 2009, and now it’s happened again."
Who can remember, outside of Chris Russo, giving a crap about tennis? When was there a reason too? Let me remind you...
John McEnroe quotes
-"Do you have any problems, other than that you're unemployed, a moron, and a dork?"
-"I'll let the racket do the talking."
-“If you believe that [Anna Kournikova's claim that she is a virgin], I've never questioned a call in my life.”
-“You are the pits of the world! Vultures! Trash!”
-You'll be sorry you hit me, you fucking Communist asshole," - After being hit by his Czech opponent, Tomas Smid in 1983.
Johnny McEnroe was the most entertaining tennis player of all time. No matter how obnoxious he was, you just had to love him. Ahhhh...the good old days!
