Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better

In other sports...

Agassi had a great performance but just couldn't match Federer, who won his 23rd straight tournament finals appearance (ponder that for a minute).

Agassi: "He's the best I've ever played against. There's nowhere to go."

On Saturday night, Kim Clijsters, who is widely considered to be the nicest woman on tour (snark: that's not saying much), finally broke through and got her first Slam.

Danica Patrick had the pole yesterday in Joliet but lost the lead early and never got it back. She's still looking for her first win.

The Solheim Cup was tied going into singles play, but the U.S. women took an early lead yesterday and took back the cup. The young players were the story: Creamer, Gulbis, and Christina Kim (the most exciting female athlete you've probably never heard of) went 8-2-3.
