[B]when i was searching through one of the rafa forums, i found a video of him on a Spanish TV show with Moya and someone else, in it the host is talking about his butt and then touches it and stuff. its hilarious! but i cant find it again! :( does anyone remember where it is? thanks if you do! :) http://www.cronicasmarcianas.telecinco.es/dn_300.htm

Did I just see short pants on Rafa?! I would have bet anything on him sticking with the pirates!
How are we going to tell what colour his undies are? :sad: :sad:

don't give up hope! he might just be practicing in those! LONG LIVE THE PIRATES! :worship:

Gracias :yeah:

little nadal wants to dress more "formal" coz he respects wimby :) , and hey, different costume for different tourney, may be this will bring him good luck :cool:

A few more pics - not new - still waiting for some Wimby action

thanks sugar_kane, i love the one with elephant, seems rafa is a bit afriad of this huge animail, hehe ;)

That's the spirit! :D Besides, it's not that bad to get an occasional glimpse at Rafi's legs. Haven't seen those in a while...

I WANT THE PIRATES!

And a few more to kick off our day in nice fashion

I WANT THE PIRATES!

I'm positive there will be a pirates comeback after Wimby, maybe it's not a bad thing after all that Rafi decided to go classic and not raise any eyebrows. That is if he DID make any decision of that sort, we haven't seen any official match yet. Looking forward to that :D :D :D

Woah many pics posted since I last came in here ;)
I want the capris NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no more short pants!!! And the sleeveless!!!! Silly Wmiby rules :ras:

Chicas!! Calm down!

I've noticed that Rafa tends to practice in normal shorts, but play his matches in the piratas; I know they'll be back :D

I just read an article at vamosrafael.com that said that the Wimbly officials have approved Rafa's pirate's, so if he wants, he is allowed to wear them.

Good point!!!! But what about the muscle shirt? All right, he's not allowed green or orange, but it's still going to be sleeveless, right? Pleeeezzz, Wimbledon officials, don't spoil everything for me! I need to see those arms :sad:

awww...hes so cute but i think he needs to wear sunblock...his skin is already getting icky

what's important is that he's going to be on the cover of DEUCE the summer issue:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v706/thewonderfulfuture/Rafa/25454810-M.jpg

goodness.

Hi, anyone knows when will the summer issue be on sale?? Thanks. :)

awww cute pictures :) Thanks :kiss:

agreed, thats the thing i always thought of, i don't want rafa to look like 28 within one year :sad: :p
awww...hes so cute but i think he needs to wear sunblock...his skin is already getting icky

I agree, all tennis players must wear sunblock!! Any idea if he does use sunblock? Rafa also already has too much lines when he smiles sometimes (although it's cute in a way)... But he's only 19!! :eek:

Eg:
http://vamosrafael.smugmug.com/photos/24825318-S.jpg

Yes, I believe Rafael does use sunblock because when I watched him practice, he had this humongous, hand-size sunblock lotion smudge on the middle of his back, obviously not rubbed in. Quite hilarious.

thanks sugar_kane and everyone for all the lovely pics :kiss: I'm getting a Rafa overdose and I love it :D

hi veyonce :wavey: glad to see another singaporean here. now that makes us 3 :)

Tat's good... At least he doesn't do Patrick Rafter's style... :D

Hi ataptc!! :wavey: Watched tennis matches frequently but became a Rafa fan after watching his French Open semi and final matches. Attracted to his physique esp his biceps and when he chases every shot!!! :hearts: And he's only 19??!!!

Singapore more soccer crazy though... Don't think we can find tennis cards in Singapore?? Can't wait for Summer's issue of DEUCE!! :bounce:

Keeping my eyes peeled for tomolo live's telecast of Wimbledon.. Hope Rafa can win the match... :scared:

baby Rafa definitely unses sunblock, and even Pat Rafter style sometimes! Take a look at this:

That look of his skin has a lot to do with teen public enemy number one: acne! At least we know he's telling the truth and doesn't have a girl *lol*

Well, it was a joke, really - but you know legend has it that no medicine is better than sex when it comes to acne.
So it was a bad joke :sad: Sorry

It will be available this week!! Exclusive excerpt on Rafael Nadal from Summer's Issue Of Deuce:-

Rafael Nadal: Spain's Raging Bull

http://www.atptennis.com/shared/photos/other/nadal_deuce2.jpg

http://www.atptennis.com/shared/photos/other/nadal_deuce.jpg

From DEUCE, Summer 2005:

By Pedro Hernandez

The kid’s timing, like his shotmaking, is impeccable. Just when it appeared that Roger Federer would dominate the game for the foreseeable future, young Rafael Nadal appeared in a blaze of orange to shake the sport’s foundation.

Boasting the muscular body of a kick boxer and a lethal left-handed forehand that he rips with ruthless brutality, the shaggy-haired Spaniard is an intimidating force despite his tender age—he turned 19 on June 3, when he dispatched Federer in the Roland Garros semifinals. Complemented by an eye-popping outfit of white pirate pants and sleeveless green and orange shirts that showcase his bulging biceps and Mediterranean complexion, Nadal is unquestionably the hottest personality in the game, if not all of sport.

By spring 2005, after dismantling nearly everyone who dared face him on clay, the then-18-year-old had become the youngest player in the ATP’s Top 5 since Michael Chang 16 years prior. That was before Roland Garros, where he stormed to the title in his first appearance, rocketing himself into the world’s Top 3, and creating a wave of attention that the sport hasn’t seen since 1985, when Boris Becker won Wimbledon at age 17. “My only secret is that I like this sport, I like getting better every day,” says Nadal. “Then, once I’m on court, there is no other secret but to fight ’til the end.

“I’m just a young guy who plays tennis, and I like to see people enjoy themselves and have a good time when I’m on the court. I’d like to shake all of their hands, give them all the autographs they are asking me for, but it is impossible.” As he talks he looks at his arms, lined with the marks from the felt-tips of the fans who swarmed him after one of his matches, while security guards scrambled to get him to the locker room.

Nadal mastered tennis with amazing precocity. Boys his own age couldn’t challenge him, and he couldn’t have cared less about the birth certificates—or the résumés—of the rest. “I remember that he came to my academy one day, when he was barely 12 years old,” says Emilio Sanchez Vicario about his first encounter with Nadal. “I rallied with him for a while and we decided to play a set. Each time he won a point, he celebrated as if it was the best one of his life, and when we changed sides, he didn’t look at me at all. He had one desire and that was to beat me.”

That fire is nothing new to Carlos Moya, Nadal’s friend from the Spanish island of Mallorca, with whom Nadal has an almost brotherly relationship. “A few years ago I asked him if he would like to have a career like mine,” Moya says. “He looked at me with the sincerity that you usually find in small children and said, quite seriously, that he aspired to more. And I knew that he would be a better player than I.”

Thank goodness that emerald dragonfly green is gone.

the only thing i didn't like about his outfit at wimbly, it that stupid little 1/2 collar on his shirt

Feli and Rafa having a diva moment.

:haha:

little rafa should avoid to make too excessive facial expression, coz how come he is so young but have so many lines when he smiles :confused: :confused: , even i am much older than him, i do not have so many lines :confused: :confused:

I am also much older than him but I don't have much lines... Sometimes he smiled too widely and his wrinkles can bee seen already!! :eek: Read in a beauty book before that there are 2 types of smiles: one which a person smiles using his cheek muscles ie. pushing his cheek muscles up which will cause wrinkles, the other type of smile is by smiling broadly, as in only using e muscles around your mouth wzout using the cheek's muscles which will not cause so much wrinkles...

Think most public figures use their cheek muscles when smiling during photograph shoots etc cos they need to smile for every camera. Sometimes these are known as fake smiles..

Guess Rafa have to really start to take care of his skin since he's also in the sun for long periods...

See e differences between the smiles in these 2 pics??

I am also much older than him but I don't have much lines... Sometimes he smiled too widely and his wrinkles can bee seen already!!
What he has aren't really wrinkles. Wrinkles stay after you are done with your expression. Maybe not as deep as they were during the expression, but there are remnants. He is not at the stage where when his face is relaxed there are any traces of the lines. When he is not smiling or making an expression there aren't any lines.

As someone who has a very expressive face (like Nadal and my six siblings), I've always been worried that my dimples and "laugh lines" that I've had since a wee one would cause early wrinkes. But luckily, none of my older siblings have premature wrinkles (we are good about sunscreen in large part most of us have spent a good deal of time outside at various stages for various reasons)- and my face is still smooth as a baby's rear when at rest, even though we alltend to have the "lines" pop out on our faces when we are laughing, etc.

thanks peoploe for explaining but still don't understand the difference on using cheek's muscle or similing broadly :confused:

but no matter how "big" i laught, i don't find those lines on my face like little nadal's :confused: :p

:lol: Mimi, go to the quiz section.. i think there's a test there somewhere where you have to tell if someone is smiling for real or if it's fake. You'd be surprised ;)

Veyonce, I'm in pain after that match - the pix helped :kiss:
Dora, I'm heading for the Soap thread for comfort and a few wrinkle-laughs

Okay that scares me as my smile is the 1st type. I dont want wrinkles when I get older :(

To stay young looking:

Wear 45 SPF sunblock, better yet stay in the shade whenever possible.

Wear hats and sunglasses.

Take good care of your skin, i.e. wash it, masques, lotion, etc.

Don't smoke or hang around people while they are smoking.

Don't drink too much alcohol (more than 2 drinks a day is too much).

Drink plenty of water.

I follow those and they seem to work - I'm 26 but most people still ask me what grade in school I'm in :secret:

Hi sugar_kane, same sentiments for all Rafa fans... Now wondering whether to subscribe to Wimbledon Plus to watch the full match's video and interviews since Star Sports didn't even shown his 2 matches... :mad:

Will he play in the Spain tournament on 30.6.2005??

Here's more pics for all of us to heal our pain.. ;)

Veyonce, I thought I died and went to Rafa heaven... You're on a roll!
Atptc, NICE shirtless pic

Hi,Great to see you here my dear friend Nene~~~~

Hi sugar_kane, yes.. I'm on a roll... :woohoo:

Did you gals/guys saw Feliciano vs Safin match?? This is the first time I seen Feliciano in action... He's pretty impressive on grass court.. :)

Of course Rafa was cheering on Feliciano from the players box and the camera panned to him about 8 or 9 times throughout the match. ;)

Spain's Rafael Nadal watches from the players box, during the Men's Singles match between Spain's Feliciano Lopez, his doubles partner, and Russia's Marat Safin on the Number One Court at Wimbledon, Friday June 24, 2005.

Yeah..yeah That was a good game:)

Of course Rafa was cheering on Feliciano from the players box and the camera panned to him about 8 or 9 times throughout the match. ;)

Jane see Tarzan, Jane happy *lol* Yup, I had my eyes glued to the TV, they even caught him chewing on his nails once. And he kept his legs up for everyone to see - in SHORTS! Thanks Rafa

When I saw the pics of Rafa, I don't saw any "hair" on his legs and arms Why ??

Why, because there is none, of course! He's a boy, remember? :p Kidding, he will probably never be hairy, it's not in his genes, thank God

I can't get that pic out of my mind!!! And it seems Rafa is one who enjoys a good massage....
But what pictures Veyonce has... Feli begs Rafa on his knees for something and Rafa says "NO" :p

when I saw him sitting during the match lopez - safin on tv trust me he does have hair (lots of hair) on his legs :p

nice pics. thanks veyonce :kiss:

Spanish men DO HAVE HAIRY LEGS but it is in fashion to WAX! yes ladies, I know sooo many guys that WAX ALL OVER, including... Rafa just forgot to do his underarms.

These kinda guys are called metrosexuals, he, he!

really?mmm...anything he does is good:)

Moya said that they do that so that it becomes easier to get post match treatment. I don't think that it's a fashion statement.

P.S. Sorry for posting the pic again in the reply... So amateur of me :retard:

I said Iza. Sorry, Anka, the flag got me all confused. Double :retard:

omc rafa with the little children... :inlove: soooooo unbelievably sweet! :angel:

i think my ovaries just died.

i think my ovaries just died.

Take some aspirin and have a lie down, you'll feel better in no time. Your ovaries won't die until you've reached menopause, which I think is many, many years away for you!!

Cute pics, don't worry about the confusion Lady Carlita, I have little cousins (8 & 4 years old) who have accidently called me their aunt!! I don't have any nieces or nephews yet - my brother is married but no kids.

Someday Rafa is going to make a great daddy :D

yeah he must be a good daddy someday:)

He will prbably be someday :angel: Cute pics :inlove:
And two more probably not as cute as "Rafa babysister" :devil:

some a little old pics from Wimbledon 2005

;)

awesome pics everyone! Rafa and his cousins = adorable. :hearts:

awwww!! Cute pictures! Especially the ones with his little cousins :D:D:D

Arne Forsell, ©Synsam Swedish Open

On Tuesday evening, several of the tennis pros competing at the Synsam Swedish Open showed off their skills as soccer players as they competed in beach soccer against other celebrites.

FC Barcelona's Henrik Larsson teamed up with good friend Orlando Trustful of the Netherlands. Some of the ATP players that participated were reigning Roland Garros champion Rafael Nadal, who's uncle Miguel Angel Nadal used to play for both FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, Nicolas Lapentti and Simon Aspelin.

"Of course I've heard of Larsson. Unfortunately he's had problems with injuries lately," Nadal said afterwards.

:drool: mmmm icecream.... :drool:

when i was 12, my biggest record was that i ate one gillon of icecream in one day :eek: :devil: :eek:

does anyone know where rafa got the scar on his back?

[/QUOTE]does anyone know where rafa got the scar on his back?[QUOTE]
Yeah, I made it two nights after he won Roland Garros. It's a scratch marck, btw.

hahahahahaha!

I know about the messageboard on VamosNadal just 5 minutes before...
I'm really a failure...

Hmm new colours?? I really like the blue! And having been little Naranja, little Manzana & little Angelito, Rafa will be little Limón! :lol:

Limon... Lord, give me strength, I despise yellow...

If he starts wearing lime yellow I'm outta here!

Didn't Rafa wear a yellow shirt when he got schooled by Roddick at the USO last year?

The best color for Rafa is orange but I've yet to see him wear a color I didn't like him in ;)

im a big fan of the white actually....but blue, red and orange are good too

I miss seeing him in blue, red though... Black too cos it's not so common... Green reminds me of French Open... :D
