Re: ~*~ Next stop Indian Wells ~*~

Bob and Mike got a REALLY tough quarter for Indian Wells. Their first round match is against Bhupathi/Moodie, a new pairing, but two tough players. They also have Erlich/Ram in their quarter and a possible second round match-up with Gonzalez/Massu, who they'll most likely play in Davis Cup in April. Should be a really exciting Masters Series....hopefully they'll cover some of the doubles on this new broadband site! We could get video clips! :) That would be awesome!

Yeah :eek: Andyoni :sad:

Good for the twins I guess :)

They're so popular in SoCal, I heard a lady say that last year there was standing room only in the stadium they were playing. They're playing one of the 2nd-size stadiums and it fits maybe 3,000 or so people so it will be a nice supportive atmosphere for them :)

Re: ~*~ Next stop Indian Wells ~*~

The guys won 4-6 6-3 (10-4) They had a tough time early on and til they broke at 3-2 in the 2nd had barely won any receiving points :eek: They actually won one less point overall in the match but who cares :p

Good test for them early on I guess. Hope they will win more easily from now on ;)

Re: ~*~ Next stop Indian Wells ~*~

Way to go Bob and Mike! I knew this match up would be a tough first round, but they pulled it out! :) I'd much rather play Berdych/Levinsky on hard courts than Gonzalez/Massu. G/M are GREAT baseliners and hard courts are perfect for their game. They usually give Mike and Bob a pretty hard time, though we've beaten them a number of times since the Olympics.

I do have to say, I LOVE watching Gonzalez/Massu play doubles. They're very entertaining! We watched them in Cinci against Bjorkman/Mirnyi and they were hilarious. I think they're great for doubles. :)
Oh my gosh yes! I remember that! First year I went to Cinci and the doubles had sucked all week... but this match was sooo funny! Highly entertaining!

Re: ~*~ Next stop Indian Wells ~*~

They won! into the finals!:D

Tough match, they saved all 6 BPs they faced (and actually probably more than that b/c the stats don't count the deuce deciding points)

They'll play Knowles/Nestor :)

Zero. they're not even showing one of the mens singles semis and the other is in the middle of the night tape-delayed. It's the weekend during March Madness. Tennis is bottom of the barrel, unfortunately :(

Re: ~*~ Next stop Indian Wells ~*~

There's a thread in GM about watching IW online... I followed the links in there and got the TVAnts software and it's pretty good... but I dunno if they'll show the doubles final or not :awww:
