- look4alec, on 12/11/2007, -1/+1I'm pretty sure John McEnroe doesn't talk about currency in pounds, since he is American. They shouldn't put quote marks around it if they are paraphrasing.
- Frinkiac, on 12/11/2007, -0/+1In a follow up story: John McEnroe was reported missing this morning at around 6 a.m. He was found later that day in a garbage bag with a tennis ball stuffed down his throat.

- magnusdopus, on 12/11/2007, -0/+1I didn't even know you could bet on tennis. Well, at least this keeps them busy. Better this than the usual scams.
(I'm actually afraid to post this. Russian Mafia please take no offense.) - Evildudetx, on 12/11/2007, -2/+1Does it really matter? Its tennis - no one watches this *****. It ranks right up there with golf on the boredom scale.
- gotamd, on 12/11/2007, -0/+1You're wrong.
- clownguyx, on 12/11/2007, -0/+2With some of the hot young female stars of tennis, I be there is a lot of imagined infiltration.
- ronaldinho, on 12/11/2007, -0/+1you mean imagined penetration?
- ronaldinho, on 12/11/2007, -0/+2At first I thought he was ludicrous, but what he said actually made some sense. These days it's so much about money, you really have to wonder about the integrity of ANY sport and not just tennis. And as for those who already make lots of money, what McEnroe said is not inconceivable as it seems. I'm just playing devil's advocate here, it just may happen, I don't think you can discount that possibility
- 89992, on 12/11/2007, -0/+1John McEnroe needs his head examined. Doesn't mean this is not true though.
- jonstafari, on 12/11/2007, -0/+2honestly, there's probably _some_ truth to his story. amazing what truth you can get from a wife beater...
- aetherpb, on 12/13/2007, -0/+0hahaha
It's like O.J.'s 'how i would've done it book', tennis style - somerive, on 01/03/2008, -0/+0Mac is confused....He really means IMG has been influencing their clients
- sam78, on 01/16/2008, -0/+0Wow, looks very interestind :)) Regards, http://www.anarsist.org/
