Stars for Stars

Mar 24, 2006 19:52

Old news, I know, the awards were given... on Tuesday I believe? Whatever, wanted to wait a bit to get nice pics. And caps of the video. So yeah, nothing new but I want them here, they're suggestive and sweet and Rafa acted like a bouncy, hyper child and Carlos was all stern but sweet and indulgent and *has sugar coma*

Awww, they are so lovey-dovey ... *squee*

I really wonder what was up with Rafa today? Whatever he did on the court, it wasn't tennis ... :(

I don't know!!!!!! *yells*
What the fuck was wrong with him?
I checked the stats of the match and at first sight nothing jumps at me for him getting the beating he just did. Well, he made 26 unforced errors, which is high for him yes, but Carlos made 24, the difference between their winner shots was of ten shots, 15 to 25 of Carlos, so it looks that his aim was off, probably sending out his famous parallel and crosscourt forehands to the lines ... but still nothing so obvious as to signal adouble 6-1!
... hold me.

*holds & hugs you* Really, you know what the sick part of it is? I had a feeling beforehand that Rafa might lose today, but I didn't expect it THAT way. *cries* Oh man .....

Really? I think that Blake's crushing victory over him left us kind of weary. Above all because he seems to have found a formula to get through Rafa's amazing skill to always answer a stroke. Not letting him play his game. I've read an article ust now about the match and I'm calmer now, because well, I love Carlos as well and he is on his way out *cries* so he might as well win some more matches and kick the golden boy's ass before he retires, Rafa has time in front of him. the article said that it was very windy today. We know Rafa's game and wind are not on a friendly basis. Carlos played very aggressive, serving hard and hitting harder and going up to the net, he pushed Rafa out of the court and played much better with wind and was inspired, I mean all those winners ( ... )

I don't know what it was, but something inside me told me NOT TODAY. But yeah, Rafa will learn from that as well, and now that the time of his fave type of court is coming up ... he'll shine again. Brightly. :) As you said, he's still young and he still has a whole lot ahead of him. VAMOS! :)

I can't wait for clay court season to begin, I'm dying for it to begin. I miss it so much, hard court's fun and all, but nothing compares to the beauty of a long, well planned rally+winner on clay *sigh*

Oi, erm, yesterday I finished the translation... only to realize that no one's gonna sit and read 12 pages of translation with Rafa in moving pictures, so it suddenly seemed quite pointless, and he doesn't say anything new... om, but anyway, too late to reconsider now, it's done, and I know it was my idea but, ommm... what do I do with it now? *feels stupid* ^^;

And once the clay season has begun, the lad will show them who the real boss is. :) I sooo hope he'll be in Hamburg and Stuttgart, I mean, I'd go there anyway, but ... ya know? ;)

The translation ... Hm, just email it to me, as an attachment, and I'll post it bit by bit on the board, so they can save it on their comps then, in case they're totally lost. ;) Even IF he doesn't say anything new.

amnoturmonkey March 25 2006, 21:26:46 UTC

Oh yeah! *hops around wanting clay season to finally get here already!* I think he really wants to go to Hamburg, it's like this itch he needs to scratch, since he missed it last year.
I wanna go to the Barcelona open seat godó, he says he's gonna play there as well, he's the defending champion *bounces*

And, okey, sending it to you right now. Please apologize to them for my bad grammar and my horrible phrasing, but sometimes I sacrificed good forms to make the translation as close as possible to Rafa's way of speaking, but making it understandable enough ;p *hugs*

kiwirazzi March 25 2006, 22:04:54 UTC

I just got your email, thanks. I'll post the whole thing bit by bit on the board soon. Not tonight anymore, as I am way too tired. *flatline* So I'll go to bed now. =P

But yeah, I really hope that he won't have to miss out Hamburg again this year. But I don't think that we'll get to see another 5+hrs battle at the Rome Masters. =P That was killer, really. *gosh* And I really hope you'll get to go to Barcelona. *fingers and toes crossed*
CLAY RULES. =)
