French Open Watch
The French Open is under way, and Roger Federer is trying to complete the career grand slam--winning all 4 majors, something that has only been done by 5 men. He has come close the last 3 years, losing to Rafael Nadal in the Semi's, Finals, and Finals, and most likely will play him in the Finals this year if Fed makes it that far. Fed has been mortal this year, already losing as more than in the previous 3 years and the season is only about half way over, but he is still a freak. He made the Australian Open Final even though he had mono; I've had mono, and that is just crazy. I could barely walk up the stairs when I had mono, I missed 4 weeks of school, and I lost about 30 pounds, so Fed still winning tennis matches boggles the mind. Hopefully Nadal gets injured so Fed has a chance, so if anyone in France happens to read this, throw something at Nadal (only injure him bad enough for him to miss the rest of the French Open).

Are there any american's left at all? I haven't kept on it as much this year. If you have the chance, go to the US Open. It was one of teh coolest sporting events we ever went to. Plus we can meet you and Stacy there!!
This is Pax, sorry steve but Nadal owns Federer when it comes to the French Open. You said it yourself that Federer has come close and that is exactly where he will finish this year.... close. Losing to Nadal is an honor and since he has taken care of business the last three years Federer should just forfeit to save a few rolled ankles that he will definitly receive if he tries to win. Nadal will win in 4.
