Roger Federer, a Vision in..........Pink?

Roger Federer defeated Juan Ignacio Chela 7-6, 6-3 in the 2nd round of the Rogers Cup.  Roger looked just a bit rusty, but, rusty for Fed is still better than most player's best.  The real story was Roger's outfit, a pink shirt with brown shorts.  It was......interesting.  I don't think he can pull of pink as well as Rafa, (I might be biased on that topic), and the shorts kept making me think of the song "Doo Doo Brown" (I think I just dated myself).  Click here for the the song.  Roger is so classy, that he almost pulls it off.  Almost. Rafa's up tomorrow, let's hope he does better than the much anticipated, but ultimate flop.....Rafole.

I realize now, after watching Roger on the TV instead of live-streaming on the computer, that his shorts are in fact olive green and not brown.  I still don't love the outfit, but, I can no longer continue to call his short color Doo Doo Brown *sigh*

Andre Agassi was interviewed today by Katie Couric about his new autobiography "Open" where he details his life in tennis, including his abuse of crystal meth, his failed marriage to Brooke Sheilds, and his obsession with his image, (so much so that he wore a weave when he was going bald prematurely).

He addresses all these topics in the interview, and in addition he addresses the criticism he has received for opening up about his crystal meth use.  The most emotional part of the interview is when he responds to Martina Navratilova's harsh statements about his drug abuse.
