Roger Federer's Problem

(AFP/Glyn Kirk)
The problem with being Roger Federer is this: every time you go out on the court to play a match, the other guy is bringing his absolute best game. If you're Roger Federer, you cannot have an off day, an off match, an off minute because, since you are the GOAT (Greatest Of All Time), everyone in the tennis universe wants to beat you. For Federer, it might just be a first round match against a relative unknown, but for that relative unknown, it's the biggest match of their life.

And that's what makes champions better than you and me. I have off days, I have days when I can barely get out of bed. I have days when I can't finish the crossword puzzle or remember my boss's name. Roger Federer can't have those days. His mental discipline and mental toughness are his biggest assets.

So bring on Wimbledon, and remember...

The Vuvuzela Makes its Way Onto Tshirts

More Cowbell Less Vuvuzela T-shirt by greenbaby

Love it or hate it, the vuvuzela is ubiquitous and unavoidable for anyone watching the World Cup soccer tournament. So what is a vuvuzela? According to Wikipedia, it's "a blowing horn up to approximately 1 m (3 ft) in length...commonly blown by fans at association football matches in South Africa.[1] The instrument is played using a simple brass instrument technique of blowing through compressed lips to create a buzz, and emits (from the standard shorter horn of about 60 to 65 centimetres (24 to 26 in)) a loud monotone."

My Brit friend says the real tragedy of the vuvuzela is that it makes singing impossible. I think the thing is just hard on the ears. Some people have gone so far as to create filters for their tv speakers that filter out the vuvuzela. Great idea.

I love VUVUZELAS! I heart VUVUZELAS tshirts by greenbaby

On the other hand, someone must love the damn things...the only thing that's certain is that vuvuzelas make cool t-shirts!

The Perfect Game that Wasn't

Umpire Jim Joyce admits he was wrong. Batter Jason Donald agrees. And Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga should get the perfect game. In fact, everyone in the known baseball universe agrees: the call was blown, the game was perfect.

It WAS Perfect!! June 2, 2010 in Detroit Michigan by greenbaby


Baseball commissioner Bud Selig could overturn the call, and award the perfect game to Galarraga. And he should. If you agree, then get to Twitter and Facebook, and let the world know. Here's the video:
