You've really just been waiting for a public hair board, haven't you?
It's OK, get it all out.

... but are you absolutely positive that's what he was saying Doc? Are you confident it wasn't "oompa"? The guy is Greek - I've seen him yell "oompa"! on more than one occasion. I'm not positive about his religious affiliation, but I've read that he's Eastern Orthodox. That makes sense since he's seen crossing himself before big matches. Based on stereotype and cultural tradition alone, it makes a hell of a lot more sense that in a moment of celebration and excitement, he'd yell "oompa" again rather than "Allah".
'Absolutely positive'? C'mon. First of all, I was pretty clearly asking if anyone knew whether he and entourage were yelling 'Allah!' after his winning points.
I mean I was rooting for Agassi, so maybe I saw implied what I wanted to be implied, but never was I 'positive' about this. So I asked. BFD.
And thanks for the clarification of his Greek parentage and Greek Orthodox upbringing....and given that, yes it sure would make zero sense to be yelling 'Allah!'

Even though I was hoping and somewhat expectingthat he'd win, Roddick shocked me last night beating Hewitt in straight sets. He somehow managed to knock all the "come ons" out of Hewitt. I really like Hewitt too, so even though the match started so late, I was somewhat hoping it'd be a marathon. But Roddick is doing a pretty damn good job of letting the tennis world know he's back. I don't have nearly as much confidence in it, but it'll be interesting to see if Blake can step it up tonight in an attempt to maintain his grasp on being the top American. It'd be a Hollywood script kind of Open if somehow, someway, Blake could manage to oust Federer tonight and set up the potential of an all-American final in the same year that people have been lamenting the weakness of American tennis as Andre leaves.
Speaking of Andre, how stupid is Larry King? On the last night of prime time tennis, he schedules Andre as his guest? Okay, so the non-tennis fan Andre lovers will watch. But no self-respeting tennis fan is going to forego watching live tennis to watch an interview that could happen any time. Does say a bit about Andre's ego though.

Interesting first set between Sharapova and Chakvetadze....I doubt that I'll last the match.
Geez, I'm also reminded (after reading the above comments) to never even ASK anyone the most SIMPLE fucking question here...
