Trade deadline is 5am EST Monday.

Sigh, it was good while it lasted. The Fognini and Simon takers will pass me up for sure.

Nope. Remember Bucharest is a 250, Barcelona a 500. I guess you will still be in the lead.

I am pretty much done with the contest. Will get almost no points next week.
Of my original team:
Fish out because of fatigue.
Monaco out because of that ankle injury.
Novak out of Belgrade.
Mayer totally worthless.
Guess I did alright, all things considered.

Only just realized now that the player I added in a trade for the injured Monaco last week (Stepanek) didn't even play last week. He was in the draw on Sunday night. That makes me feel really confident for making trades THIS week.

Trade deadline for Madrid is Sunday at 6:00 A.M. EST

[munchin]

I might actually climb out of the basement of the standings after tomorrow. I think I timed my push a little too late, though.

[Togtdyalttai]

If I win this contest, Andreas Seppi will be my avatar.

[Drop-shot]

And after being unable to trade Nole back in I am done. Not that there was much hope to begin with.

[ptmcmahon]

5 people out in round 1...doh!

[ptmcmahon]

Del Potro is my only hope now of staying near the top!

[e11even]

Feels strange for me to be cheering for Roger!

[dryrunguy]

Feels strange for me to be cheering for Roger!

Tell me about it.

[e11even]

Tell me about it.

Stranger thing is we'll have to wish he does as well come next week in Rome!

Well, I suspect it's probably too late for me to make up all the ground I need to. Especially since all of my non-category A people are determined to be useless.
