Happy Birthday! Love, Muzz

For the irony loving, Murray loving tennis fan in your life? This is meant to be ironic, right? Please tell me it is…

Saying he’s you’re favorite uncle is rather redundant. He knows that he’s your favorite uncle if you have gifted him with a card printed on cheap computer paper of the World Number 4. Though the best part is that although the seller is British, they’re aiming for an American audience. How do I know this? They spelled “favorite” the American way. How many uncles in America even know who Andy Murray is, let alone want to get him on their cards from their nieces and nephews? I almost feel bad enough for the schmuck to buy the thing myself. You know, for comedic value…or something.

 

 

Andy Murray Videogame Spoof

“Play all the way to the ultimate level…the semifinal.” Love it.

Mea Culpa

So, I know I have not been a good blogger and keeping up with the posts the past month. I could blame work, a nagging cold, the less-than-inspiring end of the season, but still, shame on me. But now I promise to be good and keep up. OK, at least, better. Anyhoo, so, what have I missed?

In typical Muzz fashion, Andy won Shanghai, complained the season was too long, asked for a wild card to Basel, and then pulled out with an injury. I fully expect more whinging, shorts pulling, and maybe a half-decent tennis match from him at the WTF’s before he succumbs to the pressure of playing in front of his homecrowd in London. That’s probably not entirely fair of me (he did play a great match against Rafa last year), but come on, I’m not that far off.

Tsonga and Cilic picked up titles. Jo now has a good chance of making the WTF’s and Cilic showed, well, that he’s not completely irrelevant? Too harsh? Meh…

Sod has pulled out for the rest of the season. I’m surprised by how sad I am by this news. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I will never love the guy, but he was my favorite tennis “villain,” for lack of a better word. Someone I enjoyed rooting against. Now who am I supposed to root against? Berdych? But it’s only fun to hate on someone who has an actual chance of winning. Get well soon, Sod, I’m going into withdrawal with no haterade to enjoy.

So. Much. Pretty.

What more can you ask for in one picture? Pico, Ferru, Muzz, Rafa, Janko, Vik, and Kei all cleaned up in nice clothes at the Japan Open player party!

Oh, and Radek was there too…

Andy Murray’s “Power Roar” (Video)

This is Murray’s new adidas ad. It’s, uh, well..at least it’s short? Really, this the best they can come up with? What does he have to do with “power fall” or “power meal”? That’s not even recent footage of Andy. Yeah, not impresssed…

What do you think?

It Hurts to Be a Murray Fan (Pic Spam)

Another Wimbledon, and another day of heartbreak for Andy Murray fans. You can literally see the hope die in their faces. Why do they do this to themselves year after year? Well, there are some tried and true methods that they use to deal with their annual bout of grief:

Some choose to see no evil…

Others hear no evil, and still more can say no evil

But most just stare dumbly in disbelief and dispair. What an emo nation the UK is

Oh well. At least these people are happy. VAMOS!

Really. ANOTHER Tweener? (Video)

This is the second time that Murray has hit a tweener this grass court season, and again it was not a desperate attempt to save the point, but disrespectful showboating against a quality opponent. Is this really necessary, Andy? Don’t you find it even a bit obnoxious?

Even McEnroe thinks it’s in bad taste, Muzz. JOHN MCENROE is judging your on court behavior. Think about that before you hit another unnecessary trick shot. Though if you do it again, I hope it goes awry and you do some irreparable damage to your Muzzards in the process.

Ewwww

I really did not need to know that Murray does not have a bikini wax. How to scrub this image from my mind?!

Tweeners Never Prosper (Video)

Apparently Murray is not aware of the curse of the tweener: if you successfully hit one, you lose the tournament. Or maybe he figured it didn’t count since it was a front facing tweener. Or maybe he thought the bad juju of the first one would be cancelled out by the second one. Like a double negative. I suppose one of those reasonings worked, since he did win the title. Either that or he’s cursed himself forever from winning Wimbledon. Cheeky…

Trophy Hoisting

After rainy days filled with ping pong and tweeting, Murray won the Queen’s Club Championship 3-6, 7-6(2), 6-4 of Jo-Willy Tsonga. I have to say, that may be the biggest honking trophy on tour. Won’t be surprised if Andy picked up another injury showing it off.

This on the other hand, may be the dinkiest trophy on tour

I would totally make a bitch face too if someone handed me that thing. Can’t they just give him a plate like a normal tournament?
