Ya, the comments from early in the week about lacklustre tennis at this event seem to have slowed down since yesterday. Djokovic/Raonic went well beyond 2 hours and had feeling of a 3 setter.

The only way they grow more traditional cable subscriber numbers is if there is a sudden surge in the building of hotels that will carry the network on all their in-room TVs. At least they’ll always have that

No mention in the story of Giovinco’s hat trick yesterday? Why not?

Nothing today on Toronto FC’s 5-0 beat down of NYC FC yesterday, guaranteeing a Canadian team in MLS final?

It’s just THERE, bleeding mayo into the rest of your food.

I live in another American League city and I am far more interested in what the White Sox are doing than the Cubs most of the time. But the only team I have seen play when visiting Chicago is the Cubs because of ease of access to Wrigley by public transit from downtown hotels.

Oh ya. The moment he hit that he got a tennis boner. It is unbelievably satisfying to hit a shot like that.

This argument is unassailable and answers the question I had been asking. Really, why didn’t all this come out in the primaries? His whole candidacy could have imploded then.

Let’s face it, this guy is not going to pull it together. There’s a fundamental sense of entitlement that prevents him from true self awareness about how big of ass he often is.

Yes yes, me too. Tennis.com has good analysis but none of the bite that I come to Deadspin for. Happy to have some of it larded on to my tennis fix.

I think the more important question here is what is going on with Tsonga’s hair these days.

Potente! Profundo!! Don’t know what it means but I love it.

Your take down of Joe Warmington is on target. A Fox News wannbe nevercouldbe and one of the biggest asshats in the Toronto media pool.

Who knew Obama was a shade-throwing Leafs fan. Go figure.

Jays fan here and I am over the moon about last night. But I gotta say, one of my favourite side benefits is watching this new annual ritual of hatred for the Jays and Jays fans on Deadspin.

There is indeed a fog upon Rogers: https://www.thestar.com/business/2016/09/30/rogers-to-stop-print-editions-of-four-magazines.html

Giri, thanks for making sure there is regular tennis content on Deadspin.

It will be interesting to see what Tiafoe does over next year or two. He’s got a lot of power. Can’t say I’m that excited about Fritz, though.

As a Leafs fan, the soft defense from Reilly on the Kuznetsov goal did not make me excited for the coming season, Auston Matthews’ sweet first goal notwithstanding.
