I hate this whole Iran election protest thing going on. Not that I hate that the Iranian people are protesting. I hate that they are protesting and their voices are being shut down.

I was quite disappointed with the match though. I was nervous before it, I mean really nervous! I thought Rafa had a pretty good chance of losing to Federer. Yes, yes, everyone was saying that this was the best ( Read more... )

Both youngsters played fantastically but in the end RAFA prevailed with a 7-5, 2-6, 6-2 win.

First day of spring! Yeah...nearly finished. And it's bloody windy outside, ( Read more... )
