I really like the history behind the event, and the atmosphere in some
of the ties is like nothing else, but for me DC is synonomous with
Britain being humbled by Ecuador and other tennis minnows.
So while others get revved up by DC fever I'm usually slightly
disinterested.
But it's hard not to get excited about Spain V Argentina, even without
Rafa.
My (slightly rash?) prediction for the weekend was that Argentina
would win 4-1. It's still mathematically possible but Lopez downing
Del Potro in 3 today was a massive result which leaves the tie
delicately balanced.
I'm sticking with Argentina - still reckon they will be too strong -
but the dubs will be crucial...

The one thing I love about DC is that the doubles REALLY matters. Also it's five sets and no dumb super tie breakers. Even when the DC competition leaves something to be desired, I still look forward to the DUBs! Going to set my DVR device right now. . .
Hey freaky - hope you enjoyed the dubs
John - sorry about the result my friend.
