It took awhile, I am hard to convince. When he said Ernests Gulbis was the one to watch I thought he had been out in the sun too long, even in Ithaca. Sure enough this week Gulbis (ranked 40th in the world) picked off Roger Federer in his opening match at the Rome Masters... I certainly wouldn't have predicted that.

Yeah, Chlamor sure knows his tennis! I love it when Federer gets beat. He's too good. It's annoying.

And now you've got me sitting here thinking about one more tennis year with no TV. And the French coming up in a few weeks, right? It's the only thing I really miss about having TV.

I don't have the info but Chlamor did send me some a link once for a site that has (free) streaming. I am the non-tv person in a house full of them. It is wonderfully QUIET and peaceful when all the others leave for school/work and I can turn them all off! I do watch some tennis tourneys though...

Unless he knows something I don't, the ones I have found are mediocre mostly. But I've managed to watch hours of tennis that way. It's just so much more enjoyable when you know your stream won't tweak out and the quality of the screen is better.

But it's not worth spending all that money, plus I am weak so if I have channels I will watch them.
