    Congrats to all the winners but I'm still nursing my wounds from the losses, from Kim/Lee and Kim/Ra in the XD to JR in the MD to Gade and Ronald in the MS (even though I never expected Ronald to get past the 1st round, but after he has done so, it's a lot more painful) to JR again in the XD.

    Kwun: I think a substantial number of us - regardless of nationality and interest - are hankering for a "wildly sobbing" icon.

    May we be one in our pain and sorrow.

    well, the same thing is happening to tennis too. roddick, federick and venus all lost. i guess the greek god prefers the underdogs.

    If Ra/Lee defeats Yang/Zhang in the semifinal, then none of the top seeds got into the final.

    well...


    maybe the Greece GODS thought...

    "GOD DAMN IT,!! NO.. I(GOD) DAMN IT.. 2800 years ago, my people started the olympics. 2800 years later, olympics returned to my land and NO ONE IS WATCHING!!!!!!!!;.. How can i attract my people to watch the games...... YES maybe i could upset the favourites to make it more unpredictable"
