Lots of screaming going on in the Sharapova match. They both grunt a lot. Hopefully Maria, the grunter, prevails.

Sharapova gets through!

Isner right now is up 2-0 sets, tied in 3rd set.

Thanks for the new thread Michelle!

From the old thread:

Sara doesn't mind as much because she just blocks it out anyway, lol. My dad even questioned the whistling.
about the whistling. Would you say that in this aspect Anna is more like you compared to Sara? Meaning you and Anna would be kind of mortified for whistling like that while Sara does not let this bother her. I mean she obviously knows very well what is the effect she has on them, but she does not get uncomfortable by their actions.

It's kind of up in the air. The game is in Stillwater which is right on the Minnesota/Wisconsin border which makes it about 30/40 minutes from here. It's at 5 PM Friday and there's a holiday so traffic will be awful with people getting to their lake homes once last time before school. There's my dad and his busy schedule hosting out of town company so if I'm going to bet on it, I'd say no but it's not for sure yet.
What is the holiday about? Sucks that you won't be able to go there watch the game. Would Kris go? I know that she will update all the way through the game if she is there.

Yes, it sucks so much!
But on the bright side you like quite young! Apparently below the allowed age .

Definitely. I would be absolutely mortified if that happened. Sara is totally like my mom and Grandmother... is it ideal? No, but they don't give a sht.

Kris is definitely going. Scot also has an issue with work. He might not be able to get away for the game either since he usually gets home around 6/6:30. I am not sure if he found a way to get there or not but Kris is definitely going and you said it, she will text me throughout the game, with updates.

This coming Monday is Labor Day...

Labor Day is basically the last chance for many people to go on trips before the summer ends. In this state in particular, it means getting to those cabins/houses on our many lakes and spending time before having to close them up until winter passes. For students/teens, it is the last chance to get together with friends before school starts again. Labor Day is a federal holiday. All Government offices, organizations, and many businesses are closed. High school starts Tuesday. Some states in the south (and maybe some others around the country) have already started the school year and do so before Labor Day but a large amount of states do not start like us... the day after Labor Day.

Thank you!

Also, we made the decision this morning... we are not going to their game tomorrow in Stillwater. Too many elements and factors involved that say no, especially my dad having clients in. Even if he could sneak out of there... where he works... WITH holiday traffic it would take him about 2 hours minimum to get there which means he'd have to leave work at 3... that also means not swinging by to get me which would take another 30 minutes. It just doesn't make sense.

So looks like we'll both be nervous together watching tomorrow night.

This is VERY cool: Roger Federer practices at New York's Central Park ahead of US Open match

The older Roger gets, the more I like him. When he first came on tour, right on this board, a poster with a SN Coffee who was from Switzerland said their country did not like him because he was known as a hothead and with tons of arrogance and that's not what Switzerland is all about. She was quite offended that he was a fellow Switzerland native because she was embarrassed by his arrogance. I knew before even looking at his Sun sign that he was a Leo. Sure enough.

I think it's safe to say that age has mellowed him quite a bit. It's ironic because he's a major superstar and one of the greatest athletes in the entire world and of course will go down in history as such. But it seems like as he ages, the less arrogant he gets. What major superstar would go to a public tennis court, granted in world famous Central Park, arguably the greatest park in the world and practice his sport? I think it's really cool.

This is so awesome quality. I wish I was like that! Not for this because I don't get reactions like that, but for other stuff.

Good that Kris will be there and will support them!
