Don't bore us - let the seeds fall


We don't want to sound rude, but the third day of Aussie Open 2008 on the men's side of the draw lived up to the expectations - it bored us to tears!
There was nothing that could get us on the knees bagging 4 more.
No disgrace - Nadal, Davydenko, Roddick and Gasquet showed their class and each of them won his match pretty convincingly, but it is well known, that the fans wanna C their stars going the distance. Coz None of this has happen, we may be in for very exciting quarterfinals should the draw favour the higher seeded players.

If U were looking out for surprises, U would end up disappointed, 'coz even when the No. 11 seed Tommy Robredo fell 1/6 2/6 3/6 to Mardy Fish U really can tell it ain't a great surprise. It rather seems predictable looking back on the Spaniards this years results (losing in the build up 4 the AO 2008 both times in 1st round).

The only other two things worth mentioning are the loss of Wawrinka against Gicquel with the Swiss having to retire at the begining of the fourth set. The other little surprise was the fact, that Youzhny really struggled against Seppi losing a set to the Italian player.

Let's hope the guys can quickly make up 4 the boring day produced today.
If not, we will be forced to bring Novak Djokovic on court to make some parodies and bring some excitment...
