Note: Bjorkman beat Roddick last time they played on grass......and one word for you guys........HENMAN

 

[alb]

Geesh Kick, I was ready to pounce on Grosjean as I can't believe how overrated the hometown Henman is. But, you the man so I guess I'll wait on that.

 

[kickserv]

well just because I like Henamn....doesn't mean I'm right...although once I saw him play in the round of 32's I said to my brother sitting next to me.........."Henman is gonna go to the final"


but I thought my girlfriend and I would be together for quite some time.....we broke up 2.5 years ago ....so tells ya what I know

 

[seeker]

KS, I agree with you on both Henman and Schalken.

Henman I believe is gonna finally advance, he knows that
if he plays well he can beat Grosjean....unlike other times
in this situation.

Schalken I can't believe he is such a big dog v Federer,
I see him winning that match in 4 sets.

I like Roddick and Philly in the other 2 matches.

GL to everybody.

 

[alb]

Awwww.......screw it. Grosjean and Schalken in a parlay. I just can't see what the hype at Henman hill is all about.

 

[kickserv]

well don't say I didn't warn ya alb

just messing with ya......

Patrick Mcenroe and Mal Washington think Bjorkman has no chance against Roddick, straight set victory, this is actually an easy match up for Roddick. Bjorkman is a 42-1 dog to win it all and he's already in the quarter's.

 

[kickserv]

T.O.O..

I have Bjorkman at 150-1 so guess I'm sitting pretty huh


as for Bjorkman having "no chance" that's a load of crap......first off Patrick McEnroe (who I love by the way) is like best buddies with Roddick, he has helped him immensly (Davis Cup coach). But I think Patrick might be a tad bias

and how can a guy have "no chance" when he beat Roddick on grass last year..........sure Roddick is the huge fav......and will probably win.....but I assure you Bjorkman is very capable of winning. In fact in the last round he beat a HUGE server and was one pumped up dude when he won. Bjorkman is one of the best returners in the game and will "chip and charge" (takes the pace off which Andy doesn't like) and try to attack that weak Roddick backhand passing shot. The key to this game will be Bjorkman's serve........if he can keep holding serve with relitive ease he will eventually break down Roddicks serve (remember Bjorkman is a god in doubles and knows how to return) which in turn will get Andy pissed............


So Bjorkman having no chance.....is a load of sh**

 

[kickserv]

bottom line.......NEVER UNDERESTIMATE A VETERAN

especially one as pumped up as Bjorkman........Bjorkman wants this one bad.....he wins this match.....he'll probably just concentrate on doubles for the rest of the year......he wants this match bad.......and with everybody expecting Roddick to win......just watch out for Jonas.....you've been warned

 

[THE ONLY ONE]

As much as I hate to go against you....I have to take Roddick, I just dont se him losing to Bjorkman....Im predicting a straight sets victory.

 

[kickserv]

well that's understandable..........he is a big fav and will probably win.......but I love the huge price on Bjorkman........no way I would touch Roddick at that price............but hey you do well with the favs.....so you'll probably be correct...........and hey I've been wrong plenty of times...then again I like the doggies

good luck buddy (well sort of)

T.O.O, yes, schalken had an MRI scan done on his foot yesterday so it will be interesting to see just how much it effects him out there. Also, federer has had back probs throughout the tourny so buth players carring injuries of some sought.
