How about that Wimbledon men's final?

It took up most of yesterday . . . but it was the greatest tennis match I have ever seen in my life . . . anyone else watch?

We watched the last two hours. It really was amazing!! I lost track of how many break points, tie breaks and even championship points there were.

It was a wonderful match! I like both of the players, but was rooting more for Nadal, and could hardly stand it when he lost the fourth set! I was praying it would not continue into today!

I did feel bad for Roger, they both wanted it so badly!

It was an amazing match! The nice thing for me was that I like both players. They really seem to be classy guys. So, I was happy with whoever won, but I was sad for whoever lost, for sure.

Tom loves to watch tennis, but I've always had a hard time with it. HOWEVER, I found myself completely enthralled yesterday! That was great competition, and congrats to Nadal! Tennis may have a new fan....

Wasn't it just stunning? We couldn't believe how Federer fought back - just a shame he lost after all that.
