Anyone interested in this? Really looking forward to the Pats at the Colts this weekend.

An Australian, an Irishman and a Scouser are in a bar.
They're staring at another man sitting on his own at a table in the corner. He's so familiar, and not recognising him is driving them mad.
They stare and stare, until suddenly the Irishman twigs: "My God, it's Jesus!" Sure enough, it is Jesu...

Great article on the LTA site:
“I took a train out to Nottinghill on Wednesday to watch the British kids playing in the Optus Nottinghill ITF Grade 1 event in a leafy Melbourne suburb.
It took about a half hour from Flinders Street, stopping at about eight little stations en route including Ko...
Jonny will kill me for telling you as he's hoping no-one listens but he is being interviewed on Radio Sheffield's Wednesday Night sport tomorrow (weds, obv.) at around 730. If you would like to hear it, you can listen to this anywhere in the world by going to BBC Radio Sheffield's website a...
A remarkably strong field for a 10K sees Morgan having to qualify.
QR1: (q4) Morgan Phillips WR 611 v Migual Olaso-de la Rica (ESP) WR 1049 QR1: Robert Dee WR 1541 v Andrea Aloisi (ITA) WR 1117
Both Brits are 3rd on court at about 11.00 GMT on Saturday.
The winners of the two QR1 matches above will pl...
Thought I'd open a post for anyone staying up to watch tonight's action. I'll probably be watching Hingis in the first match, but will be keeping an eye on the Chela/Nieminen score. Anyway, just thought it might be a good idea to have a post where those of us staying up can chat until we get to Andy's match...
An incredibly weak qualifying draw with nobody in the top 1000 - compare Calvia where all 16 Q seeds are in the top 800! All of the Brits have byes in QR1:
QR2: (q3) Ross Connolly WR 1055 v Jonathan Kuhn (GUA) UNR QR2: (q5) Amadeus Fulford-Jones WR 1110 v Manuel Chavez (GUA) UNR QR2: (q6) Edward Seator WR...
Who do we think will win the Aussie Open ?
Federer is odds-on favourite by miles but for me, Roddick is probably the next likely to take the title. OK he had a dodgy match against Tsonga but his form at Kooyong last week was sensational, finally beating Federer for the first time in nearly 4 years must...
The big news from day 3, Monfils winning 7-6, 6-2, 2-6, 6-0
That's a massive upset, Monfils played some great stuff at times tonight and his serve was on fire but Baggy was dreadful, made over 50 ues and his volleying was dire. It's been a poor start to the year for him - got hammered in Doha by Soderlin...

Dan Smethurst, James Chaudry, Edward Jones and Scott Sears in the qualies draw.

Nicolas Lapentti is WR 68 but was ranked as high as no. 6 seven years ago (I didn't remember that, I must admit!) and reached the semi-finals of the AO in 1999, after beating ToJo in R1 then having a dream draw.
Alan has played 10 lost 10 in ATP main draws (ATP site implies 11, but I can only find 10) a...

Apart from the British matches, some intriguing clashes will take place over the next 12 hours.
The pick of them is probably James Blake v Carlos Moya (I wish the Beeb were showing that after Murray instead of the Hewitt match which will probably be an easy straights win for Hewitt). It'll be an int...
Just realised that it's Arka's birthday today ! (Bebo birthday reminders are so useful )

Murray and Mackin's matches are also selcted though Mackin's match was tough to find online, so i had to google and found sporting odds. 10 matches will be chosen per round until the quarter finals. I've picked random matches that got a 50/50 chance of either player winning except Murray's 1st rd matc...
