There was so much excitement here ..drinks were flowing ..Slappy's eyes were glowing ..we're all having a great, fun time, toasting Rafa's win (..also sharing a moment of silence for fellow Spaniard Fernando Verdasco who sustained thorough thrashing from Rafa who won 6-0 6-1 for a total of 1 hour and 26 minutes. It was hard to watch Verdasco who could not elicit favor from heaven even when down on hees knees ..). Rafa's win ees fantastico!  It's Ruffie's first tournament win since Rome last year - dogged (no pun intended, sure) by knee and abdominal injuries.  And, if anyone thinks he couldn't return to ees pre-injuries state of play, this Monte Carlo match looked very much like thees Rafa we all came to love for his outstanding prowess on the court! Si?  Monte Carlo is Ruffie's favorite tournament.  So, now you know what an outstanding party we were having after Rafa's win.. It was just at the height of our jubilation when Mel Content walked into the room..

amigos ..can't talk loud ..Rafa Nadal is in mucho concentrational mode ;>

Shh.. Contessa ChiChi cannot talk above whisper; Ruffie ees in hard concentration, steeling himself, instructing hees mind of his thoughts about winning a sixth straight Monte Carlo Masters title!  And thusly - making some history on thees earth.  (..and just maybe we get lucky, see more of Raffie and less of Prez-O on the airwaves *winky dink*.) Raffie has visions of kicking the asset belong to Novak Djokovic again if they both make it to finals. Rafa won last year, causing a boo-boo in the Serb's mind. Ees still bandaged, by the way, si?

psst..I'll be back later.. my cousin Mal just dropped in unannounced. Which means ees in hot water.  O gnashing teeth, what now has the little monkey got into trouble over!  *rolling eyes*

Rafa Nadal will rise again like the Phoenix

. ok, OK! already! Sheesh! Talk to thees cuz I don't want to hear eet. All I hear ees 'Rafa hasn't thees, Rafa hasn't that, will Rafa thees, will Rafa that, until I'm dumb in thees head. So, do I have to remind everyone again..? RAFA EES IN GOOD HANDS (!) RAFA EES STILL ADJUSTING to coming back to the game FROM INJURIES TO BOTH HEES KNEES. Whaddya expect? RAFA SCALE BUILDING WITH TENNIS BALLS STRAPPED TO HEES FEET.. AND HANDS. NO! That trick for Spiderman, thank you very much. YOU WANT RAFA TO FLY YOU TO THE MOON?! No can do! Then, what, what you want Rafa to do for you? You see. Thees ees how it works. He plays for Everyman, not for you alone, honey! Give it a rest. Rafa may be one of tennis' Greats, but he ees also a man with a life, family, friends, and Contessa ChiChi. That's moi, in case you don't know about us. Rafa has a cool head on hees shoulder and knows he will not win every match he plays and hees at peace with that, ya know? So, let's give peace a chance, ok? If Rafa ees upset so much, would he be able to take his Contessa ChiChi out to dance thees night away? No..I didn't think so..

Contessa ChiChi let go as Rafa air coach.. ;>

Well. Eet's been decided thees Contessa ChiChi will no longer be coaching Rafa. Harumph. Some Meathead ees blaming me for Rafa's string of eenjuries?!? *smash* ApPARENTly, someone ees jealous! What else can eet be? Image by squiggledoo p.s. Ruffie not too happy 'bout eet.

Rafa Nadal - defeats Monfils - onward to the quarter-finals..\o/

Image by squiggledoo Hola, mis amigos! Wasn't the match between my Rafa and Monfils a great run? Rafa looks like the champion we have come to know and love, yes? I was overjoyed with Rafa's performance; tentative at the beginning as compared to Monfils' early, energetic start, taking the first set. Then Monfils started to flag and self-destruct as Rafa became stronger and surer as the match progressed. It appears to me that Monfils is a sprinter compared to Rafa who is good for the long run! And who do you suppose Rafa's smiles were aimed at? Hmm.. ;>
