where else be crowned for your 12th grand slam but under the lights in the big apple, wearing your specially designed tuxedo-like nike outfit, down to your socks and shoes? (don't forget the headband and wrist)
congratulations, roger, for a job well done. you don't have to play your best to do what needs to be done. 2008 might be your year, your golden slam. for rafa's sake, i hope not, but sometimes the wheels of history cannot be derailed.
onto madrid, bercy, and shanghai!

what are we going to talk about now?
I was once called back for a second interview for a job I was interested in. The first interview was a conducted by a junior partner who reviewed my portfolio. A few days later, he called me to come in for a second interview. I thought he was conducting the second interview as well so I didn't bring my portfolio this time around. It turned out 'The Man' ,who was on vacation during the first interview, was doing the second one. He asked for my portfolio and I informed him that I didn't have it with me.
he said:
"Then what the f**k are we going to talk about?"
