Breakfast at Wimbledon - Nadal or Federer?

Gotta go with Federer on this one still, he's playing like Nadal at the French, guy hasn't dropped a set yet and owns the grass court. I still think Federer will hold down this tournament for a couple years, but Nadal is on the rise. Federer isn't out of it yet like some people like to think.

I had a feeling this might be 1981 all over again. I'm just sorry I didn't bet more on Nadal.

Seeing the trainer on Rafa's knee was a bad omen, though. He was up last year when he hurt his knee and Federer came back on him.

Federer is trying his best to lose. :tongue2:

Whenever Nadal has beaten Federer, Federer has made a ton of unforced errors. Nadal covers the court so well, he forces his opponent to hit perfect shots for winners.

This is the primary reason why I think Nadal's success will be much shorter lived than Federer. He relies on his legs so much, and he's only 22 and having knee problems consistently.

This is a well thought out explanation that hits the mark when diagnosing the play.
However, since there are vbucks and vbookies involved then normal , rational thinking gets thrown out and the outcome is determined only by the secret bets made by the elitist vbookies and their evil mod cousins. :biggrin:
