What Am I Watching Right now?

Well, he'll be the underdog, but he has beaten Federer before, and is on fire right now.

Your predictions generally suck, so there is that too.

That's why I make stacks on Bodog

Right. What are stacks?

Benjamins

Raonic takes the first set against Federer.

The 2nd set is going to a tiebreak...as I said, must-see-TV.

Edit: Federer took the 2nd set....

And Federer has taken the third set...C'MON MILOS!

Milos takes the 4th set, it's off the a final 5th set. Crazy.

Milos wins. As expected

Ha ha.

Incredible match. Milos is gonna take it all.

He won. It was very thrilling. But not in a sarcastic way you meant it.

Just so everyone is aware, Ev originally said that Federer would win and then went back and edited his post after Raonic won. As I said, Ev's predictions are generally terrible.

The Men's Final will go on Sunday. It will also be must-see-TV.

Ah, that makes more sense. I thought he predicted Federer would win and was actually coming here to say "Heh-heh". Then I saw the "Raonic will win" and thought I'd mis-remembered (wife's been in hospital so I've been running on empty for a week).

So, Ev, how badly did bodog bite you?

I do not bet on tennis lol.

I'm confused. Didn't watch the match but I was in the breakroom when it was 3-3 in the 3rd set and Raonic was down 0-2. So how does "Raonic takes the first set" work? And then "Federer has taken the third set" -- what? I see the edit on the earlier post, did you edit the wrong one?

You are confused. Milos won 6-3, 6-7 (3), 4-6, 7-5, 6-3.

So Raonic one the first set, Federer won the 2nd and 3rd, and then Raonic won the 4th and 5th. What is the problem?

The problem is that I thought I saw him being down 2 sets to none, and 3-3 in the third. Then on the radio they kept talking about him being down 2 sets and how having already come back from an 0-2 deficit earlier (against a much lower-seeded player) gave him the confidence that he could do it. This was on TSN690 (Montreal) so there was some static and perhaps I mis-heard what they said. But I honestly thought he was down 2 sets to none.

Maybe what I saw in the break room was a "flash back" to that earlier match where he was down 0-2.
