Yeah and this is all he can come back with when challenged.

Read on Twitter

I somewhat checked in on this after the initial discussion, who is the bigot in question? Doesn't seem clear from the conversation I scanned.

Truly didn't see this coming - Rafa has been on a roll. I am usually pessimistic in big matches with Rafa these days (outside of RG), but have felt different he past week. Fed raised his game today when it was needed, props to him.

I hope he plays a good match against Novak. I'm doubtful that happens, but hope it's a good one.

Ah, reading the story now...agree that Michaels is an idiot (and on this thread we'll have to stop it there).

Gutsy effort by Nadal.

I was really hoping for a 5th set but epic finish nonetheless. I hope Roger has something left in the tank for Djoker.

That was verging on classic status if Rafa had found a break there at the end. I did not think Federer was capable of playing at the level he played at in a best of 5 match. Dude is going to turn 38 in a couple weeks, it makes no sense that he can still do this.

He's going to have the whole crowd behind him in the final, Djokovic is going to be furious. :lol:

Same, tbh. Rafa has looked youthful the past two weeks, contributing to why I actually felt optimistic.

I hope Federer doesn't suddenly look like he's in his late 30s on Sunday.

It looks like the Presidium from the Mass Effect games. I hope someone gets that reference.

That was some great tennis to watch. They both brought it and Fed just, man. The guy amazes me.

Rooting for Djokovic in the final but won't be upset if Fed pulls it out.
