Is that right?
So nice that you're claiming him.  And he is great so you don't have to wait for your son to play. 
I'll pm you my age.  I have to pm you anyway tomorrow to start my New Year's resolution efforts.  |
Er, I'm not sure of the reasoning, I'm not religious enough  but yeah, if the mum is Jewish then the child is Jewish in Judaism.
He can be my favourite Jewish player until my son comes onto the scene my son won't take 15 minutes in between points though! That's the thing that annoys me the most about Nico!
I look forward to the PM. I'm off to bed in a minute it's coming up to 2am here  have a good evening  |

That's the thing that I like best about Nico. Because when I see him in person ... that means that I get to see him on court longer!!!! And he has this little ritual he has to go through every time. After he does everything, then and only then, will he serve.  |

You know that you love Nico, Adam. We just have to get you to admit it.
And no one is taking away from what Nico did - that took courage compared to the wimps that support Mariano and won't open their mouth, or the players that are bashing Mariano. 
Very proud of my guy. |

Re: 1002 Reasons We Love Nico
Rosie translated it because the way the article is on lun.com, I can't copy and paste into a translation site.
Here's Rosie's translation:
Basically he says he doesn't like it when players attack their colleagues and treat them with mistrust and suspicion, sometimes even before they have been "found guilty", and says that it seems players from Europe and the States look at things differently in this regard and have a different attitude to the from the Latin players. He says both Mariano and Willy are great players and he admires them and those that stand up for them.
Also he says that this shouldn't take away from either of their achievements.
