Crazy game. That match was so intense.... 2-time US Open champion Andre Agassi at his last Grand Slam ever, and he was neck and neck with an opponent who's name was also Andre...
I mean, of course you'd root for the guy who's been so awesome in the 20+ years in tennis history... or do you show some love who has also proven that he can in fact beat Andre the Great? How rude was it that the audience was rooting only for Agassi, even when almost every match was a tiebreaker??
I'm tellin ya.... the entirety of the 23,000 fans in the stands was loud as hell... I dunno if I was actually down there playing the game I'd be nervous and feel so much pressure because as the last series, you'd want to leave on a good note, right? You wouldn't want to get kicked out of the tournament only after the first round...
They wouldn't shut up. Someone even had the nerve to yell out 'There's only ONE Andre!"
Felt like they didn't even give the other guy a chance. He could have very well been the one to say "I was the one to beat Agassi at his last showing of the US Open" and then, his career would have just skyrocketed from there, then he'd win more money, then he'd get endorsements and then onto commercials...
Well, anyways, congratulations to Andre [Agassi]... I'm sure Steffi Graf is damn proud of her husband for making it through that non-traditional match. I want to see more of their kids though.... that cute boy of theirs needs to play more tennis on TV vs. Taylor Dent.
Sigh... I miss Blacksburg already.
