I just wrote that title to start this and as corny as it sounds, I'm keeping it. That's all this is really about, the 2021 French, the SF, F, etc., etc., etc. Some of Nolefam and many of his other social warriors talk about how Novak doesn't get the respect despite already (especially in their …

Roland Garros Aftermath
Oh shit there's a lot to discuss. We probably get after this analysis and conversation tomorrow, but maybe later today. Just an unreal turn-of-events this week in Paris. I look forward to sharing a shitload of thought and perspective with you. Talk to you soon!
Á Mon Avis
Sinner's serve at 5-4 was so typical and so pathetic. If you had hopes for this guy, his tennis career, fuck off; you have no idea what you're doing. He is a massive imposter. He hasn't done shit on this tour but swing really hard from the baseline. I'll take Hurkacz all day, who spanked …
GOAT: Flawed or Beautiful?
Following our latest GOAT vs GOAT in a major final, with the outcome having significant statistical and theoretical consequences that fuck with people's emotions, thoughts, and arguments, let's take a dive into this GOAT discussion that revolves around the Big 3. Remember that this is mainly a conversation had by fans who mostly come to …
Nadal Wins 13th, 100th, 20th . . .
I'm not a numerologist, but do those numbers mean something deeper, or is this just part of the statistical debris left blowing around Philippe-Chatrier following the 2020 men's French Open final in which Rafael Nadal steamrolled Novak Djokovic 0 2 and 5. I kid you not: after the first two games of the match, I …
2020 French Final: Djokodal LVI
Who do you got in this championship match? We pinned this to our destiny when the draw was announced two weeks ago. We needed this match. 2020 has been relentless. We've clamored for normalcy, even the past, because there is so much doubt now and about the future. The tennis over the last couple of …
What’s at Stake
😉 Let's talk briefly about why Djokovic and Nadal both need to win their respective matches tomorrow and go on to raise La Coupe des Mousquetaires on Sunday. You already know the answer to this two-sided question, but I have about an hour before a Zoom beer with a pal, so let's drop another post …
French Semi-finals
All things considered, we have the best match-ups possible for this 2020 French Open final four. Tsitsipas is the best player in that 2nd quarter. We were clear and correct on the Medvedev meteor, which burned up just about this time last year after his run ended (miserably I have to add) in NYC in …
French Quarters
REUTERS/Christian Hartmann To finish my commentary on Thiem vs Schwartzman, I liked Diego in this match and part of that absolutely comes from his results in Rome. He spanked Rafa, played a gem against Shapo and though he came-up against le patron (or il capo) in the final, he showed all kinds of value for …
Tough to Watch
I see for this bottom-half’s SF a rematch of their Rome QF from a few weeks ago: Nadal vs Schwartzman. Thiem looks bad. Let's get to Nadal vs Djokovic. 9th game of this second set, tied at 4-4, is entering the 12th minute. This is unwatchable. Sorry. Like the American Presidency. Though I find it …
