Bounced at Wimbledon

I, Novak Djokovic, winner of the 2008 Australian Open, would like to apologize to my many fans for a lackluster showing this week at Wimbledon, an event I was expected to perform well in, if not win. Instead I was dealt an ignominious straight-set defeat at the hands of wily Russian veteran, Marat Safin. Though ranked number three in the world, I played right into Safin's game plan, and never managed to take control of a match I had no business losing. That's inexcusable. What can I do now but apologize, go home and hit the practice courts? I vow to rededicate myself to the game I love and be a champion once more, but first I'm going to go see Iron Man again.

That's it, Nate.

Get back into the ring!

Before The Dark Knight appears & blows all the other summer movies to hell.

I have a feeling it might cut in on the training regime for the US Open.

Batman is a champion tennis player. Keep an eye out for him on the court.
