    ..Open or Rolland Garros begins this weekend. Who are your favorites and why.

    I'm pulling for James Blake and Roger Federer though I realize Rafa is the favorite to win.

    I think this will be the year Federer finally overcomes Nadal in the final. At least I hope it is. Gotta love Roger Federer.

    Not at all. It's more like rooting for Tiger Woods than anything. Roger Federer does not at all remind me of an evil racist empire whose subjects are a bunch of mouth-breathing troglodytes. What makes Roger even more of a man than Tiger is that Federer is a man of complete class. Humble and non-assuming. There's not one thing that is unlikable about him, in my opinion.

    Federer is definitely a joy to watch. His creative shot making has left Johnny McEnroe speechless on numerous occasions and that's no small feat!😲

    Federer's humility is mixed with a fair dose of self-confidence. Not arrogant or cocky, just quite sure of himself. It makes for some interesting sound bites!

    I couldn't agree more.

    Roddick and Blake are gone! I'd hoped both would do a bit better, perhaps the 3rd round or so. Karlovic, the player who knocked off Blake, has a MONSTER serve, even on clay!

    I'd like to see McEnroe or Connors win it.

    Jimbo hasn't seemed to help Andy much.
    Jay Mac is my favorite commentator. Accurate insight blurted without any pretentions... unlike Ms. Carillo.

    With all the Americans gone, I am rooting for the Fed. On the ladies side I would love to see a Serena vrs Henin showdown (though I think that would happen in the quarterfinals).

    I'm pulling for Moya and Federer now, but fully expect Nadal to win.
