Greetings ReadersThe Holiday was yesterday for me and I just did not make the time to blog.
Getting to business - Basically no play of Tennis was yesterday, but boy oh boy the schedule was packed today. I set the recorder so I am anxious to start watching some of the matches tonight.
Today's picture is of Davydenko. I know the player, but I really do not follow him. I think I like him just because of his name. It has that "True" Russian sounding name - "Denko" and not like those pesky "ovas". Anyway, he was the only Men's match that was finished yesterday and he is onto the next round of the French Open.
In case any of you readers need the official website of the The French Open - www.rolandgarros.com. All the info that you need is there. Please peruse. I visit often, but try not to until I watch my matches that I have recorded in the day while at work. I want to be surprised and find out myself when a seeded player gets "the boot". Of course, it comes to no surprise that Roddick has been eliminated already

I was watching Fox 31 News this morning and guess what? My previous blog about the Denver Bronco player Darrent Williams may have been on track, the way I saw the incident after hearing the news. But I do not know the whole "new" news so I am going to have to follow up on this and keep you readers posted. Here is the previous entry I blogged on http://redhooktyrant.blogspot.com/2007/01/three-fridays-in-row-for-snow-bro.html.
By the way readers, I have been trying to get my thoughts together, but I can not. My mind is on the Tennis matches that I have taped. So, with that I am going to say...
Until the next time
