    Boys Pound Tomic!!

    Well Roddick is leaving with class. Wha im gettin out of this press confrence is that hes already packed it in. Roddick just anounced his retirement after the US open. I see Roddick getting very emotional tommorow. You will see the croud cheering him on hard tommorow on his final set, but this is it. Farewell Roddick! he will always be a winner!


    Tomic +160

    No, his body is having a hard time........ think about this..... why didnt he have this press conferance befor his last match????? i think he feels he may lose tommorow. Just my thoughts. So now everyone can come out and see him off, which is the right thing to do.

    Last time I checked line was moving upward, been a few hours though. I was waiting around for closer to +200, but doubt that is going to happen, even though Andy is bound to have more public backing than almost and man in tennis.

    I don't know. Tomic can win but if I HAD to bet, I would pick Roddick. He is still more consistent than Tomic and has a better serve as well. Let's see how Tomic does when the crowd is so heavily against him.

    I had Tomic originally, the fact that this is now under the lights tomorrow night + the looming spectre of retirement makes this a no bet now. Will just enjoy the show instead of trying to figure out who is going to do what with the emotion, etc.

    I believe this announcement was planned for his birthday. I think Andy wins tomorrow, but I am laying off that one, just going to watch and enjoy.

    Damn! I did not connect those dots. I think your right. I guess that'll be 500 down the tubes that I put on Tomic.

    No way. I actually won't even hedge it. Tomic is in pretty miserable form right now but i'll let it ride. What I do like is Roddick is so emotional on the court the crowd and the moment could overwhelm him. Tomic is so young I don't think Roddick retiring will mean anything to him one way or the other as Roddick is not one of his contemporaries.

    Either way, I expect a very close match. I personally think Roddick wins, but BOL to you.

    Seems like the odds dipped back down, movement in both directions?? Money was going on Roddick before the announcement, now it is going back the other way? I thnk it is a coin flip, not sure how to incorporate the retirement announcement.
