US Open Day 1 Schedule & Open Thread

And I did not know Kim was at a Mets game. I shall root for her now.
Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.

And now he’s in quite the choke. Really looked afraid to win this thing up 2-1 in the fifth.

Stosur d. Vesnina was the best match of the day thus far for me in terms of quality. But for the most part it’s been some pretty scratchy stuff so far.

I really think he can beat Soderling
Also, I hate players who quit once they get down 2 sets; Marchenko, Berrer. One of the great things about tennis is that the score repeatedly starts over and there is no clock so you always have a chance
"We're starting to get into Plush mode," Nyjer Morgan said
We shall see
I’d like to see him take out Le Sod, but I’m not feeling it.
Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.
And Hewitt breaks to take the 3rd set
He really grinded the set out, he is fightin’
"We're starting to get into Plush mode," Nyjer Morgan said
Fed winner between his legs
Now’s he just showing off.
Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.
