I can't remember who was calling JWT's match today, but he made a good point: that Tsonga simply doesn't have the all-around skills (particularly defensive) as the top four guys. The top four really are exceptional in their ability to play both defense and offense with power and agility. Yes, they have great mental skills, but athletically they're also in another league. I think Nishikori, with his extraordinary Agassi-like ball-striking, has/had the best combination of skills to compete, but he can't stay healthy. I also think Dimitrov may come through (although I do NOT see particular similarities to Fed). I'm not convinced Raonic can ever break through unless he lucks into a really thin field in the coming years, a la Krajicek, Stich or Ivanisevic. Yes, he's got the great serve, but from the ground he's no Juan Martin del Potro.

Mr. Met is clearly the star of that ad. I'm a Yankee fan, but the Jeter overkill is making me almost dislike the guy, just the way it did in anticipation of his 3000th a few years ago. On another topic, does anyone else think Adrian Beltré looks a LOT like Willie Mays?

Spotted Wyatt Cenac at tonight's (actually last night's) endless and incredibly boring Yankees game with the Rangers. He was with Questlove, and they stayed through the 13th inning. The announcers ID'd Questlove but didn't mention Wyatt, but I squealed "Wyatt!!!" Questlove apparently tweeted that he had to leave because he was due on stage at 1am. Still, it was so nice to see Wyatt on my TV again.

Carla would be delightful, but I'd be even more excited to see Clinton Kelly on DWTS.
