OMG!THEHOPMANCUP!!! You know you're irrevocably obsessed with Prince of Tennis when you start watching tennis because of it and ADORE the Hopman cup because it's the most showy tennis EVER and Safarova's a friggin LEFTY!!! MUWAHAHAHA I always get excited when I see the lefty's. ^.^ Too bad Berdych got sick.

For some reason when I watch tennis on tv it bores me to tears.
But when I watch Tenipuri I acctually get excited and won't take my eyes off the screen.
IRL, I think playing tennis is more fun than watching it

I find most tennis pretty boring. Even the Opens. Actually, especially the Opens. Who wants to see Fedherer win again and again?
But the Hopman Cup is really entertaining. It's about the closest thing to real live tenipuri that exists.

Real tennis is REEEEEALLY boring in my opinion... it's like....THIS is tennis??? And where are the super cool techniques, the funny comments and the sexy bishounens?
Nah, I prefer PoT xD
A friend of mine is really a tennis fan...and verytime she talks about it I can't help but think....Tenipuri!!!

Tennis might be somewhat boring, but I've been looking at some Youtube vids and it was pretty cool seeing a real-life Buggy Whip Shot. (And I think Pete Sampras was a real-life bishie when he was younger. And at least Marat Safin and Rafael Nadal still are.)

XD That's another part of why I like the Hopman Cup. They're all young and attractive. Thomas Berdych is reeaaal pretty. ^.^ I think last year he was ranked at 13. I'm not sure what he's at now, though. Has and Safarova are playing India on Thursday. India's my favorite team. (Yes, I'm a traitor. I prefer them over the Aussies. )

No one is allowed to bash Rafa, or else Tessa shall go psycho as he's her most favorite player in the men's game.

*dies* Rafa, aka Rafael Nadal. From Mallorca, Spain. Ranked #2 in the world. Has a twin. Friend of Carlos Moya. AND 3 TIME (CONSECUTIVE) WINNER OF ROLAND-GARROS! (One of my lj icons is so Rafa biting L'Cup de Muskteer or however it's spelled)

I like both him and Federer. I watched some vid where someone had collected Federer's most amazing wins and I WAS pretty astonished by some of them. He's fricken fast.

I'm not a big Nadhal fan. OR Fedherer for that matter.
Tommy Robreido, Thomas Berdych... They're more my type. A little behind in rank, but not too far. Actually, Djokovich (or however the hell you spell it. You know what?) Novak, the third ranked, isn't bad.

*glomps Shpere back* Call me Haku, dear...or Haku-tousan if you prefer ^^ *kisses her on the cheek*
And...I know who Nadal is...but...I don't care that much about real life tennis player to be honest...
Btw, it's very funny how they call Pete Sampras in Tenipuri....Pistol Peeto xD xD ajajjaa

I still can't believe the whole Lleyton Hewit thing at the end of the anime. (I can't BELIEVE he married annoying chick from Home and Away!)
