OH NO YOU D'NT

LET THE (MIND) GAMES BEGIN:

The New York Times (Friday's) puts Nole Cakes' incessant and time-consuming ball bouncing before a serve on blast.

That's okay, BeeBoo. Take your time. You're World #1 NOW!!!! Fuck 'em. Ehhhhhhhhhh

The paper brings up the discussion of a time clock placed some where on the court.

Patrick McEnroe counters the argument stating why don't umpires enforce the rules that are already in place: "Imagine that!"

Nole wasn't the only one called OUT in the article: Rafael Nadal; Mardy Fish.

Ivan Ljubucic opines about Nadal and his slowness, the paper details:

Ljubicic, who favors a clock, said he was not concerned solely with Nadal’s pace of play between points as he goes through his pre-serve ritual, which includes cleaning the line with his foot, arranging his hair and adjusting the seat of his pants. He also has a problem, he said, with prematch delays as Nadal arrives on court and organizes his gear and water bottles, making his opponent wait at the net for the coin toss.

“It takes him forever,” Ljubicic said. “I know that’s his routine, and I know it’s what he does all the time. I personally feel offended when he does it.”

Ljubicic said chair umpires have sometimes told him to speed up his own play, most recently at the French Open.

“You kind of are a little bit out of your rhythm and you try to follow the rules; with him, he just doesn’t care,” Ljubicic said of Nadal. “He’s just way too slow, but again, it’s not his problem. I always say it’s the umpire’s problem. He has to be the one who enforces the rule.”
