I love the way this is progressing amd the interaction between Marat and Andy. The plot is very interesting in this, lots of different things going on. I love it ^_^

The next chapter involves the backstory with the trio (and, yes, the Marat/Andy is definitely the most fun part of the configuration to write). Thank you.

i kind of fell a bit bad cause I usually stand by the Argentinians side (the perks of being south American, we stand for well, just about everybody here)... but what guile and nalby said was just plain cruel, so good to see guille go, and i hope nalby pays too...

now, 'bout Andy and Marat... well that's hot, really hot!!!!

still, I really like the way you are writting them, hoy they act with each other and all, it's really cool....

I felt weird writing Guille into the story just to be a jackass. Then I remembered his demeanor when he was an elite player and it made it easier.

Yeah, Andy definitely benefited from Marat being so irresistable. :)

Glad you enjoyed.

have you seen tenis pro?? (the tv show of Mariano Zabaleta and Juan Ignacio Chela, and now Gaudio too).. .that stuff is hilarious, anyway, i bring that up, because back when he was an elite player, Guille was alot in it, and let me tell you something, he made everything up for me there, he was like so awesome to watch, so I'm not mad at him about that...

anyway, everything is for the pure awesomeness of your fic, so it's all good XD

Andy was always my fav tennis player, and I always thought Marat was the hottest one, them together is like a dream come true..

oh and I really enjoyed the fic, can't wait to read more

Marat and Andy are so much fun to write, it's easy to forget about Roger (well, I remedy that in the next chapter).

:) regarding the tag system. Figured it made everything organized yet not needing something like 40 tags.

Thank you.

Cool to see Juan Martin stand up for himself and stop being too shy.
It was sad to see Guille act like that. What a jerk. I really like him and I hope that if he doesn't get fired too quickly he'll make up for his attitude one way or another.
Oh well, chapter three will have to wait for tomorrow - need to get some sleep!
loved Sam and his spatula!!! ^___^ made me laugh for no reason, just the image.

I have fun with Sam the Bodyguard. Let's just say Guille would hope he's fired before Sam found out the exact words in the conversation with Nalby. Then again, if Marat says he's fired, it's a done deal.

Ehehe, Marat is *very* thorough, and, er, "poor" A-Rod had to deal with him all by himself, no wonder he didn't recover XD.
Huh, I didn't think of that before but Lleyton IS really the odd man out between Isner and Querrey, who are above average even for tennis players.
Poor Delpo, stuck with the unfortunately annoying and/or neanderthal versions of his countrymen XD. Marat's losing his touch if he got someone a job to get his money back, he should have obviously threatened it out of Guille ahahaha.
The Four F's are so catty but tbh, I probably enjoy it way too much, maybe just on account of them being my Spaniards XD. *Pets*
I like the twist that Sam and John are Mardy's "bodyguards" while A-Rod is tryiong to play peacemaker... definitely a role reversal!
Having a lot of fun with this series Kris, sorry for the late review!

krisherdown June 22 2009, 03:36:14 UTC

Yeah, Lleyton did have a reason to complain about the height problem. If only there was someone tall but not as tall as those two to help him there ;)

Guille wasn't worth the effort for Marat to threaten him. Since they weren't actually working together, he didn't have to actually see the guy.

Sam as a bodyguard - especially now that I saw those twitters at TC - simply cracks me up too much to ignore.

Re: late review: Oh please. I already got the chat on this, saved. Thank you.
