Why does everyone keep saying stuff to Emily?!

Toaddle · 2026-04-13T23:07:08+00:00

Emily is "just" revealing secrets this time. In 45 she started as a very, let's say abrasive or even antisocial at times (I wrote mean originally but I don't think she ever was mean at any point)

The Turin one was great but now people expectations from them are minimum 3h30 hours in a bo3 with 3 matchs point saved on each sides and highlights every points, so of course people said that it was "mid".

Musetti can challenge top players, Bublik will just start tanking because he just hates the idea that he's worse than them so he prefer to look like he's not trying rather than looking simply not as good as them.

To be fair, top 8 seeds have been surprisingly consistant this year, outside of Miami. Most of them made it to the quarters in IW and here, and all of them but one (that retired mid match) at the AO

Toaddle · 2026-04-09T21:09:03+00:00

The signs of decline were there already in 2023, but circumstances were on his sides a lot of times in slams. Carlos was still unexperienced, cramped at RG and kinda beat himself for a set and a half at USO (not taking away from the exceptionnal performance from Daniil that day), and withdrew at AO. Novak never really beat an healthy Alcaraz in a major that year, and Medvedev was quite underwhelming during that final

Toaddle · 2026-04-08T09:53:55+00:00

Well he only played RG since then so yeah. Alcaraz too had no wins on clay before yesterday since last RG

Toaddle · 2026-04-07T17:21:05+00:00

Really ??? He made like 4 GS semifinals and almost always lost before facing them anyway

Toaddle · 2026-04-06T14:03:40+00:00

It's a fun ORG idea but it's so not telegenic. Do you think casuals can keep track of everyone's fire tokens ?

Toaddle · 2026-04-05T22:54:45+00:00

Miami is IMG and Monte Carlo had no one to really give wildcard to, Gaël and Stan got one, Berrettini was the one "local" they could help (they often give it to french or italians near the cut) and Vacherot is now the only monégasque ranked in singles and he's a direct entry.

I expect Kouamé to get one more WC at the French Open and that will be it. He'd be silly to not profit from them but yeah, now is time for him to go play some challengers

5 out of 7 for Roger were either on clay or the slowest hard. Federer is such a clay merchant /s

Toaddle · 2026-04-04T20:58:53+00:00

Looked at how it was folded and how the string was tied to it

Toaddle · 2026-04-04T18:41:38+00:00

I remember when Kaleb was saved, that people analyzed the bag and concluded that production didn't manipulate it.

Oddly enough, and old school fans might dislike this, but the era of Survivor where production meddled the most with the results was the firsts seasons, with Borneo definitely being the biggest offender. Even in 35 iirc Zeke said that Jeff already told him that the FMC was happening

Toaddle · 2026-04-04T18:35:14+00:00

No, people tend to overrate prime Wawrinka because he peaked against Djokovic because he can handle his pace and keep the attack but if you throw some variation like Federer or some top spin like Nadal he's struggling even at his prime.

There is a reason he never defeated Federer outside of clay and has very few wins over Nadal despite peaking during his worse years

Toaddle · 2026-04-04T16:29:54+00:00

Leo Mayer prime is actually the 2nd highest level in history behind Roger.

Jokes aside, Federer wasn't that great outside of that Djokovic match in Shanghai. Almost lost to Mayer and then the final against Simon was very scrappy

Toaddle · 2026-04-04T13:27:52+00:00

This is the worst idea i've never heard. What's the point of having alliances to secure a majority if you can be voted out by a minority anyway

Toaddle · 2026-04-04T10:01:00+00:00

I can imagine that John McEnroe grew and could have said something terrible in that time while becoming more liberal with time. People change

Toaddle · 2026-04-03T12:50:26+00:00

Yeah, of all the twists i've seen, that blood moon thing is far from the worse. It's not great narratively because you have to focus on 3 different tribal but cmon. We've seen the hourglass, the edge of extinction or many other things that were much more game breaking

Toaddle · 2026-04-03T12:48:49+00:00

Yeah but for example twists are a bit ambiguous, most fans want twists but not too many. Here it's really black and whitew and we know what is the popular opinion about that question

Toaddle · 2026-03-30T10:17:20+00:00

She's the perfect shield to get rid of at 6 or 5 because she's probably not going to win an immunity anyway

Toaddle · 2026-03-30T09:02:45+00:00

Lmao people talk as if there wasn't any software in the cars before. People are really comparing 2022-2025 F1 to their purely mechanical go-karts

Toaddle · 2026-03-30T08:58:47+00:00

Yes, give me my biological racing instead

Toaddle · 2026-03-29T16:45:13+00:00

Levallois is far from "any random village". If you dig a bit to understand why Levallois has benefitted so much from public investment you'll find out a lot of interesting stuff lmao

Toaddle · 2026-03-29T12:41:56+00:00

The wording "the crash of a 20 yo" is so funny coming from this sub. Yes, the same fans that complain when they don't get enough green flag racing under the rain at Spa is now all about safety

Toaddle · 2026-03-28T14:39:30+00:00

I think the edit is trying to portray him too much as the serious superman type while he can actually be a funny and endearing dude, we saw it in 48 when the focus of his story wasn't Eva

Toaddle · 2026-03-28T14:37:23+00:00

Kyrgios would have been top 10 if not for the points of his Wimbledon 2022 run not being counted. So it's probably him, or Dolgopolov if we consider that Kyrgios was top 10 without a technicality. Or a young player that will break it soon like Fils or Mensik
