You know it's summer when...

BBC SPORT: Play has been delayed by at least half an hour on the opening day of this year's Wimbledon Championships.

 

[Napper]

wish it would be delayed forever .

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Looking forward to this tournament. Always good entertainment and some dazzling tennis.

Henman vs Federer round two?

 

[Parson Henry]

wish it would be delayed forever .

I always try and arouse passion for the sporting event of the year. but I don't mean the tennis, come on who is going to join me in giving those knobs (who sit on the grass bank and shout for little Tim) a damn good thrashing.

 

[Captain Pugwash]

have to laugh.

looking forward to it this year, i dont no why

Its such a contrast today compared to Saturday. I went to the Ladies final at Eastbourne Saturday and got very burst in the sun.

 

[Trufflehound]

They've only delayed the start to give Henman an outside chance of staying in it until tea time.

Blimey Gaz sounds a bit 'beckhamesque' bursting!!!

So he has been drawn against someone with two arms and two legs has he?

[BHenman vs Federer round two? [/B]

Only if he manages to get through round one which is never certain for the limp wristed also ran.

Why they don't invest in retractable roofs is beyond me. It makes a mockery of the tennis world's most prestigious (allegedly) tournament when a single match can have numerous rain delays and on top of that then be carried over until the next day!

Yes, but I believe new LTA rules stipulate that all foreigners have to have one arm duct-taped to their sides when playing British opponents, just to give our boys more of a chance.

Good rule send a copy to the World Cup Rules Committee!

Were the ladies that good looking then? Or did you take some, ahem, "reading matter" with you to help you burst?

Tennis = not really a proper 'sport'

Unlike Darts that is.
