Man this was such an awesome experience. I definitely need to come back and go to more matches. The energy was really cool throughout and overall it is something I think every sports fan should experience.

Cilic serving to stay alive down 5-2. Let’s see if he can summon up something good to extend this match a little longer.

I don’t know how Alcaraz is still bouncing around like this. Man to be young and running on adrenaline at 2am…lol.

Well I just went up and right before the store closed I got the bag and a water bottle for my brother. I didn’t like the hats and shirts. I should have picked out a hat for my brother when I was downstairs where they had some really good ones. He’ll like the water bottle.

What swag did you buy?
I got a hat ($34), that burlap beach/grocery bag ($20), and the rubber ducky with the red hat ($10) for my friend’s infant.*
*They live in Spain 🇪🇸, but visited NYC in late June.
Oh that’s cool man! I want to get my brother something since he still plays competitively in tournaments in Texas, but I think all the merchandise places will be closed once this ends. I just couldn’t get up to go look once both guys got dialed in.

That last shot, wow.

The distraction is coming from people randomly shouting Carlos. Cilic has been a pro about it. If this was Sabalenka she would probably have murdered a few fans by now.

Nearing 2am and these two are really going at it with the 5th set coming up. So many beautiful winners hit by each guy tonight. This has been well worth the money to be here in-person.

Cilic did an underhand serve. It did not go well and he lost the 3rd set shortly afterwards. 95 percent of the people left are here for Alcaraz. Watching him feed off the crowd with his youthful flair is pretty cool.

Sinner held on, barely.
I think he beats Alcaraz if he wins this match.
Sinner seems to be a bit of a problem for Alcaraz. First things first though because Cilic played a brilliant 2nd set.
-
This match is getting really good in the 3rd. Both guys showing a lot of emotion.
-
That first set flipped quickly. Alcaraz is hitting some just ridiculous shots right now. It feels like he can cover every square inch of his half of the court.

Sabalenka is the physically superior player to Collins. I like how hard Collins is battling though. That was a great game just now from both of them.
-
Sabalenka really, really does not like the crowd.

Watched it Friday evening after I got back from the beach. Seeing it in 3D was pretty cool. Such a great movie from start to finish and I am glad I decided to watch it again because that is a timeless movie that has aged exceptionally well. Roy Scheider actually has a small nameplate plaque on the wall where I work because he was a regular there many years ago.

Amy Schumer comes into eat where I work when she isn’t touring. She is really polite and comes across as being a very happy person. She ate there on her 41st birthday this year. I have heard her comedy routines before and I think she is funny.

Also was at a high school state championship game at the Erwin Center when a kid threw in one from half court to win the game. On his birthday.
I was at that game sitting in the 4th row opposite the benches. When Kimball missed the free throw and made minimal effort to get the rebound was the first wild part. The 2nd part was the look I had of the shot was such that when he released it I said to myself “This is going in!” because he shot it perfectly. A friend that was always on me about the money I spent to sit so close to the court every year tells me the next day that “I’ll never say another word about what you paid to sit there!”
I will also never see a moment of pure joy in an athletic contest like that ever again. If memory serves correct the grandmother of the center died before the playoffs started and he told his grandmother they would win a state title. That was a pretty bold declaration considering Jay finished 3rd in their district that year.

Oh, it's more than that. The GQP in Texas has literally made it ILLEGAL for the state to do business with any business that decides not to do business with AR-15 manufacturers, EVEN THOUGH that law is on track to cost Texas taxpayers an estimated nearly $1 billion this year (due to less competitive interest rates because the GQP has banned multiple lenders from doing business with Texas governmental entities). They are costing us a billion dollars NOT because ARs are banned or not, but because they won't even let us do business with businesses that choose not to support the AR-15 industry.
They are charging every one of us money to indulge in their psychopathic masturbatory gun fetish. And Fatty thinks these are the good guys, here to protect us and our way of life.
Moving away from Texas sounds like a pretty cool thing to do.

I get that Serena is the goat and the fans want to see her keep playing, but the onesideedness is crazy. Kontaveit got to some crazy balls and hit a phenomenal passing shot, and the crowd groans. She hits it into the net and it's like Serena hit the greatest shot ever seen. I love Serena and a huge fan, but geez.
Fans flew in from around the globe to see Serena play. If I am flying thousands of miles while paying the prices these folks are in order to see Serena in one final tournament then yes I would be cheering everything she does. Kontaveit knew this would be the environment going in and she was okay with it. I met a woman on Monday that flew in from London solely to see Serena play. I hope she wins this tournament. She is among the handful of greatest athletes of all-time. Go out with a bang Serena!

I honest to God cannot imagine what being his lawyer must be like. I also cannot imagine what it must be like working this case at the DOJ. It is not often I would think that someone implicates themself like this for everyone to see.

I wanted to go see Alcaraz play tomorrow, but he’s an early afternoon start. Going to have to hope to see him at night in the later rounds. Watching him play has gotten me interested in tennis again for the first time in Lord knows how long. He just does things no one should be able to do at his or any age.

That’s some cool memories right there that you have made. I definitely need to be back next year. I would love to go again this time, but those prices are getting up there.
