US Open Happenings and Ads

ELENA Vs. ELENA. Jankovic versus Docic – weird match. JJ had back or butt issues, while Elena had broken concentration due to JJ’s long injury timeout and 15 double faults.

My personal favorite is the Roger Federer going thru airport security with a bag full of chocolate balls. ” Swiss Tennis player.”

I actually love all the RF commercials. They could sell a compilation dvd!

The print: I saw Kim Clijsters (the “I’m all grown up, look”) for a citizen watch ad. It’s nice. Nice glamorous look. Nice looking watch. Good job, I give it 2 thumbs up.

Next, thumbs? Maria giving her mean eye look standing against a white wall backdrop, yes the Nike ad. Says, and I quote : “It’s not over until I say it is… take every advantage…” Maria Sharapova will never give up. Ever! Facebook.com/niketennis. End of ad. End quotes… folks. I can’t make this weird stuff up …

Bryan Brothers lost in first round. They lost to a hot team, but the Bryans are a bit flat. A coast to coast relationship must be odd for a set of twins as connected as they are.

Save the date if you are in California – Sunday October 23 the Bros have a tennis fest. It includes music and wine tasting. Check it out on www.bbtennisfest.com.
