Are you going to buy the new trump book?


Btw the tennis starts again around 1230

No on both. I don't need a book to tell me how much I hate Trump. I don't need to watch tennis today to tell me I have no interest in it.

Ok. I will accept your first point but your statement against tennis is a big no.

You know you are surrounded by a couple of tennis fans in here. You can't avoid tennis lol

Has Todd Woodbridge lost weight?

Why do Australian cricket commentators almost have an orgasm when England looks like they got an Aussies batsman out? It's unAustralian!

 

[Chicago1]

I was wondering... is it now a rule that you have to be of Greek origin or some Eastern European origin in order to play men's tennis as a professional in/for Australia? How did that Moaner boy get in? I'm so confused.

 

[Chicago1]

There is now a 55C degree difference between here and my hometown outside of Chicago.

De Minaur was born in Sydney to a Spanishmother and a Uruguayan father. He spent the first five years of his life in Australia before locating to Alicante, Spain. De Minaur returned to Australia in 2012. His parents returned to Spain in 2016. De Minaur spends his time between Sydney and Alicante. De Minaur insists he's always felt a strong bond with Australia. In 2017, he told the Sydney Morning Herald "I used to represent Spain but I always felt I was Australian. As soon as we moved back here again that was the first thing I wanted to do – play for Australia."[5]

De Minaur can speak English, Spanish and French.[6]

Dark I wonder if tennis Australia offered De Minaur funding or some scholarship to train and stick with Australia. Usually that happens. I don't know much about his background

Me neither. It will come out. Heard he has been hanging with the David Cup squad for a while.
Proud to claim any "Aussie" who can win a match.

I might feel homesick when I see Ferris at Wrigley Field segment.

 

[Chicago1]

I used to show the film to my Year 8 class. I can't remember the excuse I used.
