The blonde in the middle is the one that I couldn't figure out for the longest time. I finally did process of elimination - "Fed, Nadal, Murray, Roddick ... who's missing? Oh god that's Djokovic!"
I have to agree with 'clese, though. Fed's photoshop is the best. The expression is perfect for the pose.
The second picture scares me, so I don't want to look too closely at it.

I take it you never saw Djokovic dawn a blond wig and do his Shakira impression. You would have picked him out immediately if you had.

I can't stop laughing at the first one. Especially Federer and Murray.

You guys are trying to kill me. Someone warn me in the USO thread when it's safe to come back...  |

That's an interesting video. Is it wrong that I think Djokovic looks better with a blonde wig instead of his Beaker hair?

You know, it just occurred to me how close Elena Dementieva was to winning a major at Roland Garros. If you think about it, she suffered an injury in the 2nd round that eventually caused her to not only drop out of the tournament, but also miss two months from the tour,and yet she made it to the semis, and managed to take Schiavone to a first set tiebreak before withdrawing. If she had won, she would have played Sam Stosur who had never been to a major final, and over whom she had a 4-1 record. Granted the one time Stosur beat her was at RG he year before, but still, so close. Maybe it's time for her to finally catch a break.

There are three or four of the women that I would love to see win a major and Dementieva is right up there.
Amarathe - not fond of the chia pet hair on Djoker so any different hair style is an improvement.
ETA - I just watch my Arthur Ashe Kids day that I recorded from yesterday. Who thought having the Bryan Bros rap with Djoker was a good idea? Does nobody think of the children?! I'm going to go and have a few drinks and pretend I never saw that.
In case any of you missed it, you can listen to their recorded version. It features Djoker and Murray.

I'd rather listen to their trainwreck performance at Kids Day than the headache caused by the Jonas Brothers' fans and Demi Lovato.

I wish they would just do away with the whole musical performance thing. Watching the actual players play with the kids and try to hit targets was far more entertaining.

Okay, so I'm watching a rerun of "Supernanny" (do I hear snickering?), and I'm ff-ing through the commercials when I happen to look up and spot an absurdly hot, strangely familiar-looking dark-haired guy standing in an airport. Wait a second, is that Roger?! It sure was. He's in a commercial for Lindt chocolate, and it's truly hilarious. There are two versions. The shorter one is the version I saw on actual TV. Here's the youtube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NChuiwwpr6Q&feature=relatedIt's the only tennis player commercial I've seen yet that rivals Rafa's ones with Gasol for the watches for hilarity. It's by far Roger's best speaking performance in an ad too, so the director did a great job. And I'm absurdly proud of him that he's well-liked and famous enough to be in an American commercial that doesn't run on a sports program. |

Hee, Harry, I saw that Lindt commercial of Roger's on the Emmys but the longer version is even funnier. Thanks for the link!
I think it's cool too that a Roger ad for chocolates just randomly showed up on the Emmys like that. And he is funny and somehow you suspend disbelief about the whole idea, especially the idea that Rog sits around eating Lindt chocolates all day.
Heh. I think my favorite is still the "shrink" commercial for Wilson but this is close second.

That's a good one, but the execution isn't as good IMO.

Check out the "Behind the Scenes" bit on the Lindt. Funnier than the commercial!

Love thise, will check out the "Behind the scenes", to. What is he "shrink"one? Definitely think he comes across quite naturally in the above linked Lindt one, just seems like a normal person goiing through, no obvious acting or hamminess.
Thanks so much for linking to it harry24
