It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

I do not understand why people aren't just tossed straight the gently caress out of the stadium for shouting poo poo out while a player is winding up their serve. None of this "quiet please" bullshit just get the gently caress out

Even with Cilic taking the second, there's something kind of flat about this match. Been a bit dull.

Agreed except at the US Open, where the boorish behaviour of the fans is expected and honestly part of the charm. The tour doesn't really need two similar hardcourt grand slam tournaments, differ them by having one kill players with heatstroke and the other having fans throwing beercans at the players when they double fault

When a man lies he murders some part of the world. These are the pale deaths which men miscall their lives. All this I cannot bear to witness any longer. Cannot the kingdom of salvation take me home?

So Federer is playing like poo poo right now. Getting US Open flashbacks here.

I wonder if this weird rambling speech and the tears kind of explain the match... Maybe he was a lot more nervous for it than it seemed. He was obviously the better player throughout and should've won in straights, but let it slip several times and overall barely seemed to get out of second gear. I thought it was him being casual but maybe he was just nervous.
