Do Americans start showing up at Wimbledon next year with 1936 shirts? 3/4 finalists are Americans. Not bad. Would love to see Roddick beat Federer. No, I don't think it is likely but as they say, that's why they play the game (or match in this case). Well Roddick over Murray.

Murray is trying to become the first British man to win Wimbledon since Fred Perry in 1936. No British man has won any Grand Slam championship since Perry at the U.S. Open later that year.

1936 is approaching Chicago Cubs proportions.

Won't happen but it would be insane in England. Still, I am going for Andy Roddick for the simple reason is that he is an American and it is the 4th of July tomorrow. Besides, Federer has won enough already. Imagine if Andy Murray wins Wimbledon. Won’t happen but it would be insane in England.

Since then American Greg LeMond won it 3 times, Lance Armstrong won it 7 times and Floyd Landis won it 1 time but was DQ'ed for taking testosterone. Kind of analagous to a Brit winning the British open again. The basic problem is that the French have not won the Tour since Bernard Hinault in 1985.

Well I am in the office. Went out for sushi with the boys last night. Had a couple too many Sapora's or whatever that crap Japanese beer is called. Not really in drinking shape anymore. Tour de France starts tomorrow. Lance is making his comeback but the problem is that he is not even the best rider on his team. Alberto Contador won the Tour 2 years ago. He didn't race the Tour of France last year but he did win the other two grand Tours, Italy and Spain. Will be interesting to see if Lance and Contador will both be in contention. Serious light day.
