If this gets to the tiebreak at 12 all, Novak is winning.

When, not if. Fed had his chance and second-served it away.

Nothing I enjoy more than watching Djokovic fail to put Fed away in his service games.

To think that the first major final set tiebreak in the final would come at Wimbledon instead of the US Open. Lol.

Also, this match might be the tennis gods exacting some revenge on Fed on the 10 year anniversary of the '09 final against Roddick. Still one of the cruelest losses I've ever seen.

Mentally tougher in every single big point of the tiebreaks.

Roger's chances at double championship point - not to mention the first and third sets, even tiebreakers aside - will be brutal to have to think about.

This really does remind me so much of this match except Federer on the losing end this time.

Good for McEnroe reining in Fowler trying to immediately jump into a GOAT discussion.

Man, Fed played his ass off. As my first tennis hero I hate having to root "against" him.

So after about 5 minutes of research, I think I can explain the big deal about the Cricket World Cup Final to everyone. Ties are rare. Ties after an overtime are ridiculously rare. The rules state that when this happens, the team with the most "boundaries" (the cricket equivalent to a home run) wins. So there you go. England essentially won on a home run tiebreaker.

Feel free to talk about this at the water cooler with confidence.

Was watching summer league games and then the world series of poker came on afterwards and I just haven't bothered to change the channel. I played some online poker a long time ago but then I remember it became illegal or was at least in a weird grey area. I just did some quick research and it seems like there's still some grey area for online poker. Does anybody here live in WI and play online poker for real money?
