Tennis is like love.
It hurts.
Rafa lost to Jo Wilfried Tsonga (wrong spelling? I don't care). At the Australian Open Semifinals. 'Jo Wilfried who?' you ask. This Frenchman, whom Rafa's ass whooped at one of the earlier rounds of the US open last year. But no, this time, Tsonga whooped my favorite famouzz azz.
Wasn't it enough that Andy Roddick lost on ROUND FRICKIN 3 last week? (That was pain. J, T and I stayed up til 5am just to catch the replay. We thought just a couple of serves and Hot Rod would breeze through Kohl&^%$# (basta some German dude). Apparently not.
Now, I'm all for upsets and shit. I mean, if Marat Safin raged his way into the 2004 Finals, woop woop, right? But wtf? I'm sorry, but I seriously do not see myself rooting for Tsonga in the duration of my lifetime, even if people seem to believe he has the powers to win 5 Grand Slams in a year (how he'll do that ewan ko, kasi apat lang diba).
Sorry Novak, I was gonna root for you, but Rafa's loss has left me no choice but to go Federer on this one. Just to be sure that Tsonga gets ass-kicked by the Fed in the Final.
See ya at the French Open biatch! At ayon nga kay Vip, 'Janko takes the number one spot in my list now, but Rafa still tops my 'best dresser on court' ranking.' Rafa, you've still got the best ASSets in the ATP, darling. =P

On a brighter note, looking forward to the Ana vs. Daniela replay tonight, i.e. Pretty vs. Pretty. In another display of first-class dumbness, I wasn't able to watch the Ana Venus match last night coz I fell asleep and forgot to set the alarm. I've had a gag order on Tara and Daddy for the past few days, because they get to watch it live and work and pixellated internet TV has left me no choice but to settle for replays. Boy, the Williams family must hate Serbians. Anyway, (and I say this with no lesbianism present whatsoever) wouldn't it just be a dream to have an Ana vs. Maria final?
