      You're awesome. I just about choked on the "old man can't play" and "these players make no sense" angle

      One of my favourite tennis forum posts in awhile.

          From a quick glance at the draw, it kind of looks that way. I think Fed's only real issue would be Tsonga. Djoko has Soderling and that's about it. Nadal has del Po and Berdych but not sure they can take him out at this point and Murray's draw looks somewhat easy as well unless Roddick pulls some form out of his ass.

          I guess Murray's ankle would be a concern but it kind of looks like a bit of a boring draw. I'm going to work on my contest entries tonight a bit when my shift is over so maybe I'll see a few surprises once I've spent some time on it.

          What do you think?

                  Well 5 dimes might have that prop of all 4 seeds make the final at + money.bet like 30 units on that.then go bet .5 unit on all the stiffs below them to make the SF and you will win money regardless..

                  I just have a feeling that this year were going to see someone who has not reached a major SF get there for the first time. I dont know who, but I would say that picking a dog in the bottom half of Murrays draw would be wise to green out, due to the fact roddick is in such terrible form. A long shot from there would not be a bad bet. Monfils, Ivo, or even tippy who is hot..

                      I can kind of agree with all of those bets, except Gulbis. Guy has been a non-factor for far too long after being hyped up.*







                      *Watch Gulbis get to the final now.

                        Don't see why anyone would bet Muller.

                        From a quick glance at the draw, it kind of looks that way. I think Fed's only real issue would be Tsonga. Djoko has Soderling and that's about it.

                        Eh, draw doesn't concern me when looking at it.


                        I'll probably be betting no on the semis being the top 4.

                            Gasquet could be a major issue for Murray in R4, but is he fit?

                            Roddick in the qf - yes, Murray handled him easily at Queens, but that was a one-off performance. Unlike much of the field, he really knows how to play on grass.

                              Yeah I hope you and beefy are right and it's not the top 4 in the semis. I'm just going through the draw match by match now and I'm still disappointed. Not sure why. For the French I was more excited by the men's side than the women's but I think that's going to flip this time around.

                              Boner, did your girlfriend ever end up making that Murray bet at the beginning of the year?

                                When looking at these bets, I don't focus on matchups and who might have someone else's number. I look at it "are there players capable of knocking off the big 4?" and there are. Any of the four I could see not making the semis.

                                Djokovic is the best in the world, but grass is probably his weakest surface. He's only 20-6 at Wimbledon. Half the times he entered he didn't even make the quarterfinals.

                                  I cashed in with my boy safin +800 against joker in the 2nd round at wimbledon couple years ago. I think he made the semis that year.

                                    At Fed's age he can easily lose in 1st round or 5th round
                                    He is no guarantee anymore
                                    DoJo weak on grass

                                    Murray strong
                                    Nadal pretty good
                                    Tsonga athletic
                                    Fed of course good but his age is a factor to a degree

                                      That was 2008.


                                      WIMBLEDON, England -- Novak Djokovic was upset in straight sets by Marat Safin in the second round at Wimbledon on Wednesday, ending the Serb's chances of testing his theory about Roger Federer's vulnerability.
                                      The 75th-ranked Safin won 6-4, 7-6 (3), 6-2 on Centre Court. It was a stunning loss for the third-ranked Djokovic, who came to the All England Club confident after beating top-ranked Federer in the semifinals at this year's Australian Open en route to his first Grand Slam tournament title.
                                      The 21-year-old Djokovic came up against one of the toughest second-round opponents he could have drawn.
                                      Former No. 1 Safin has won two Grand Slam titles. One came when he upset Federer in an Australian Open semifinal en route to the 2005 title. Safin beat Djokovic in the first round of that tournament -- their only previous meeting.
                                      "It was certainly a very bad day for me," Djokovic said. "I didn't do anything that I was supposed to -- he was very solid in all segments."
                                      Djokovic had said Federer, bidding for his sixth consecutive Wimbledon crown, was vulnerable after his recent lopsided French Open loss to No. 2-ranked Rafael Nadal.

                                      Like you said, Safin made the semis.


                                      The hype surrounding those comments set up an enticing semifinal here. Now, it will be Safin who tries to go down that path.
                                      Safin did go down that path and lost to Federer in straight sets.

                                      It was also the only time after January 2005 that Safin went deep into a major.

                                          I agree with top 4 seeds dominating. Nadal will be tough to beat. My $ is on him.

                                              I used to think like that until a few years ago. That method doesn't work for me. Sure there are players who could knock them off, but they have to get to the point of even meeting them first. The only I can personally tell if someone has a chance of doing well in a tournament is to map out everyone's path the whole way through. There are probably 10 guys that I think could make a run but if there's the possibility of them facing a few tricky matchups along the way, especially before they even get to the semis, then I just drop them out of the equation. Just personal preference I guess

                                                          I wouldn't be worried if I was laying Muller! I bet he doesn't even win two matches.

                                                          You can have him 1000/1 with me as well.

                                                          3 point max bet.

                                                            Why are you not excited for this wimbledon Shari? Draw looks pretty interesting to me. Nadal potentially has to play big serving raonic (and if nadal has a weakness, we know that it is his return of serve vs big servers: see isner even on clay and historically), Del po, and Berdych (one of the few guys that knows how to play on grass).

                                                            Feds draw is very easy. Really only Tsonga there that can challenge him. If i can get him to win his quarter at <-140 I will probably buy it up.

                                                            If Roddick could find some form, who knows. He is in Murray's section, which is of course the best section always to be in, especially with the injury. If Nadal faulters with his tough draw, djoko beats feds, and murray has one of his lapses and loses along the way, anything can happen. Roddick could potentially just have to beat injured murray/someone else, berdych, and djoko (who roddick plays well vs especially on grass of course).

                                                              I guess I'm not excited because I really don't see anyone other than the big 4 winning it. Maybe Soderling but even that's unlikely. I really don't have much confidence in Roddick at all, although I'd love to considering how well he plays on grass. Tsonga's just too damn inconsistent for me to have faith in. Berdych, is, well, a Berdbrain most of the time. It just seems like the men's side is where women's was a few years ago when it was basically Serena and Venus winning everything. At least with the French, there was the buzz around Djoko's record and Nadal came in slumping so that stirred things up.

                                                              Saying that though, I'll probably get more into it if a dog shows up in stellar form setting up for a potential upset of the top 4.

I think Roger should have been seeded 2nd although Djokovic is technically the #2 player in the world. What's crazy is that Mahut drew Isner again. Hopefully they can finish the match in the same day. Supposed to rain all next week.

                                                                    Guy will cause someone fits but he won't get past the 2nd round
                                                                    Exactly! I'd just modify the 'will' to 'may'.

                                                                    I guess no one wants my Muller 1000/1 offer?

                                                                    There's an excellent chance all 4 top seeds could reach the semis. They all got to the French Open semis. I think Roger should have been seeded 2nd although Djokovic is technically the #2 player in the world. What's crazy is that Mahut drew Isner again. Hopefully they can finish the match in the same day. Supposed to rain all next week.
                                                                    Obviously there's a good chance. Look at the lines!

                                                                    As for seeding, they're never based on whatever stuff you're arguing (the best on a given surface, I suppose), so why would they change now?
