Don't ger me wrong, "Firm" and "Motleygirl" I'd love to see Hingis come back and play Sharapova, etc.

And yes, I know the big servers, "the Scud" etc, don't always win. Andre was known to have one of the best returns against the big servers. Andre is a great player, bar none.

And PS, I think the women should have to play 5 sets in the big matches or finals. I think it's too easy to win 2 sets sometimes.

I once knew a guy
who played on the men's pro tour
before he got hurt.

He said the public
has no idea how BAD
the women's game is.

He said the women --
with one or two exceptions --
have almost no skills

and though some are thin
and some are muscular most
aren't even close

to being athletes.
If you look at how injured
so many women

are currently, then
just imagine the carnage
if they played five sets!
