Hand me a shovel for James Blake.

I really liked him circa Hewitt USO controversy way back when, with his Sideshow Bob hair, and classy demeanor. My high school's tennis coach (one of them) played against him in the Ivy League, and was on his mailing list and such back when he was fumbling around the Top 40. He was endearing, and all.

But then I started watching more of his matches on ESPN (how they love their Americans), and I just got so bored. I don't remember him ever toughing out a match, which is how you win my love. I still am fascinated by his kryponitic capacity for Nadal, but other than that, meh.
I find myself rooting against him in live score updating from Indianapolis.
On the plus side, he isn't coming to Washington this year, which leaves more show court time for... Andy Murray
