about

so you've walked through these pages
and i must tell you some of the things
you'll read here will disturb you...
but it sure will get you thinking
if you don't like what you reaad,
feel free to shut the f*ck up!

you think you know me

clearly, you're mistaken!
you don't know a thing about me
and before you ask, i won't bother to explain
there's more to me than meets the eye

so drop the f*cking labels...it bores the hell of me
leave me alone and we'll get along just fine

say what?

you have got to see these

as it was written

blast from the past

safin rocks!

(A/N: i didn't intend this post to be too sportswriter-ish. but that's how it turned out...)

it truly is three-time lucky for safin. after being finalist in two-other occasions here, safin, 25-year-old russian finally wins his first aussie open title, sunday in rod laver arena, melbourne. after tying one set-all but down a break on the 3rd set, safin battles hewitt (and the aussie crowd, of course) and his temper to capture his second grand slam title. hewitt, chasing after all shots (and making some of them) simply came short to safin's big serves and hard ground strokes. it's a long-time coming for safin. but i'm sure it was worth the wait. safin surely deserves it (after injury, and all).

(A/N: I have just discovered photo blogging. The joy!!!)

what's noticeable about safin's game this time around was he appeared to be calm (okay, calmer than usual, only 3 racket throwing. none of it actually broke). kudos to his new coach (and Federer's former coach, doesn't this typify the cliche, "one man's thrash is another's treasure"?) Peter Lundgren for working hard on his temper.

'twas a treat to all tennis fans because both players displayed awesome tennis and moments of brilliance worthy of the open's centenary. it was worth spending sunday night at home just by watching this.

can't wait 'till the next grand slam.

(A/N: wow! i actually written something which is devoid of cynicism, mockery, angst and sarcasm. hey! there's a first time for everything, right?)
