Holy shit man.

I'm watching the Australian Open and a couple days ago this total nobody, Marcos Baghdatis, from Cyprus, ranked 65 and unseeded in the tournament beat Andy Roddick in 5 sets. It was awesome, I love underdogs. Then he played ... uh ...Ljubicic ... and won again in 5 sets, and that was awesome. Now he's in the semifinals and up against Argentinian David Nalbandian (rank 4 seeded 4th), and lost the first set. Lost the second set. Started the third set and it was shaky and he looked like he was doing good but then the Australia Day fireworks started and that distracted him and he faltered. And then he ended up pulling a win out of it. He won the fourth set. The fifth set was real close (5-4) in his favour and he had service and served 2 points (15 all) when it started to freakin' RAIN! And they had to pause the game while they closed the arena roof and then dry off the court and then they had to warm back up before he could serve again and it was a close game and then he WON and I was like *SCREAM* and *dies*
