Wow! Great read... Thank you POJO!
I'm glad as well that Blake got that self-important show-off Nadal OUT.
I saw the tremendous Sampras/Agassi final in 2002. Didn't go out that night stayed up until the end. A very impressing match... Wonderful tennis, real gentlemen on the Center Court.posted by Ellyllions Men say, "I'll never understand women." That's a very lonely place to be if you're a woman because we don't understand half of what we do either.posted by ALinChainz Katy, Pipe down, pump off, and fly back to your cave you old bat.Comment

Yeah...most are saying that Agassi was offered a deal with Adidas that includes his wife...since Adidas was already her sponsor..."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands.

Agassi was talking about that Sampras match today...and about his first time in a grand slam title...which was in 1990 against Sampras...
he said of the 1990 final..."I had beat him 6-1, 6-1 the time before, and kept thinking to myself, he's never going to make it..."
he was laughing when he said it...
he said Sampras was maybe the 1 reason why Agassi is still playing...and that Sampras and he really have a special relationship on and off the court...that goes all the way back to the late 80's when they were both at the Bolleteri academy...
but of that great open match...Agassi said...it really was incredible. For 1 night, we both had our A game. he wasn't any better than I was...and I not better than he. It came down to a point here, and a point there, in the tiebreakers. I've never played a match before in which I was totally dominating with my play, and it didn't translate to a win because the other guy was equally as dominating."Van Halen was one of the most hallelujah, tailgate, backyard, BBQ, arrive four hours early to the gig just for the parking lot bands.
