Pitchers Of Poptropica

Tennis, Wimbledon final. Allez Marion, Venus too good. 07/04/2007

the spotlights are all just point triumph on the fourth London Venus Williams, but the Cinderella Story today, unlike 2005, did not her as actress, but Marion Bartoli. And no matter if is not the happy end, or if the francesotta play a tennis style all its own and unwatchable. It is not as beautiful as Sharapova? It is not as good as Navratilova? But who cares ... E 'cmq was great. He faced the world number one on Wimbledon's Centre Court, head held high, very high. The No. 1 guys, the incomparable "Giustina" Henin, who in Paris had planed everything and all that had come up in the semifinals almost in full regalia. The recovered all, has pulled even beyond the "stones" and eventually sent her into a tailspin. We tried again with Venus has stood up to punch the first set 4-4, then the forces are lacking or has failed a little human jitters or simply (as stated inguenua herself with sincerity in the 'final interview) the other is the world's No. 1 on the grass and we are losing. It 'was very nice and funny with Pierce Brosnan (as indicated by her real reason for his comeback on the Belgian's note) and also in the ceremony when he tried to "snatch" the dish of the Queen of Venus during the final photo. It's enough to be proud of and I think he has finally realized that even his father too hard when he burst into tears getting the sporting congratulations to Richard Williams. Maybe the story of Marion's more, boh ... I really do not matter. This sport offers wonderful stories, like that of Williams, who need to slam 4 ... sorry 4 chapters to be told and there are also tales of extraordinary, even if written in only seven matches ... 7 pages pardon. The tale of Marion, with all its faults, so that's fine. Allez Marion and Venus too good.
