I was watching the Giants-A's game tonight and they were talking about a balk that was called in last night's game that they didn't understand. Dave Flemming recounted his discussion with Bill Miller before the game and said that it was a point of emphasis this year.
I can't find a video online about it. Chris Bassitt is in the stretch, foot on rubber. Brings his hands together. Then, he steps back with his front foot (Lefty, he moved it towards 3B), then delivers the pitch. It's almost like he goes into a windup after he's come set.
Here's a video with Price, but he moves it forward, then goes into his delivery.
I can't recall ever seeing a pitcher do this in MLB.

1 review for 13 Gallon Flute Still Stainless 4″ Diameter – 4 Sections
After looking around for a distiller I decided on mile hi and very happy I did this still is bullet proof but also works as good as it looks. One thing great about this flute I can keep the flavors in or do a neutral and get 95% on the first run. The staff at mile hi was easy to work with and received the still in only 3 weeks. Looking at starting a small Micro distillery and will ordering the 6" copper flute soon.
Very happy with this still

Trade & TransportThis page gives a brief overview of the Trade and Transport theme with a comprehensive site map.
This theme will explore concepts and knowledge resources that are available to policy makers in the areas of:
TRADE and TRANSPORT FACILITATION: Increasingly, infrastructure projects include a facilitation component to ensure that the new infrastructure is most effective in fostering economic/ trade growth and mobility. One stop border posts are of particular interest on many corridors. There are many resources available to practitioners in supporting improved facilitation in their projects. TRANSPORT CORRIDORS as VEHICLES for ECONOMIC GROWTH and REGIONAL INTEGRATION: Development generally occurs along transport corridors. Regional corridors require two or more countries to agree to collaborate to improve performance and link regions. The private sector provides practical operational insights and a bottom-line impatience to achieve results. Corridor institutions seek to commit all parties to performance-related actions. The Trade and Transport theme web pages are under development. If you have suggestions and recommendations for knowledge gaps in this theme, please contact Lynn. Partners: |

Today is the 75th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor. Last month, I joined a group of WWII fiction authors and published the short stories anthology Pearl Harbor and More: Stories of December 1941. We were delighted that the Self-Publishing Roundtable Podcast elected to feature us in their episode this week and interviewed several of our authors including myself. You can tune in to hear what we have to say about our stories. My part of the interview starts at the 54 minute mark. This time, I shared a lot of tidbits and details about "Christmas Eve in the City of Dreams" and Rose of Anzio, plus the next novel I'm writing. Hope you all enjoy it. http://selfpublishingroundtable.com/sprt-171-pearl-harbor-and-more-stories-of-wwii-december-1941/ Today, I'm also the featured author interviewed on the website This is Writing.

WARNING: This blog post contains spoiler of Book 4 - Remembrance. Jesse Garland is no doubt the most memorable character in the Rose of Anzio. I know because many readers have written to me about him. I didn't plan for him to enter this story. When I write, I don't plot or outline. I let the muse take me where it wants me to go. Jesse materialized when I was writing Book 2-Jalousie, when I had in mind to create an 18-year old solider who would be akin to a (more…)
About PEARL HARBOR AND MORE
Stories of WWII: December 1941 On December 7th 1941, a pivotal event took place that changed the face of World War II. Hundreds of Japanese fighter planes carried out a devastating surprise attack on the American naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. By December 11th, the United States was at war with the Axis Powers in the Pacific and European theaters. World War II raged for almost another four years, but the entry of the world's greatest economy into the conflict profoundly influenced its course. (more…)
Rose of Anzio…Concluding Thoughts
The final book of Rose of Anzio will be released this week. I cannot believe it is all coming to an end. I've never been one to make new year's resolutions, but this year, I think I have completed a personal goal for 2016. The Rose of Anzio will be finished and published. As we come to the end, I want to share with you some of my experience behind the scene. (more…)

e-scribes Editorial Review of Rose of Anzio Book 3-Desire
e-scribe.com recently reviewed Rose of Anzio Book 3. I am thrilled that they liked it. Here is an excerpt: "Kang depicts both the horrors and fears of war alongside the softness and subtleties of romance as if they were born to marry—despite the obviously immense challenges of polarising imagery. We see the many facets of war, not just the battles but also the personal struggles and decisions faced by troops and commanders, and those they encounter along the way. Kang has the unusual skill to place the reader inside the characters' minds as if we are reading their thoughts and seeing through their eyes. Thus, it becomes, soon, not a tale, but our reality. Kang is unafraid, too, of weighty narrative; she does not shy from the depth required in order to depict the severity of the situation, nor does she once falter in recounting fine details. There is no hiding behind superficial froth; this is as incisive in its historical accuracy as it is heart-rending in its romantic themes."

Bombing on the 33rd Field Hospital
If you have been reading Rose of Anzio, you know that Tessa Graham, the heroine of the story, served as an army nurse for the U.S. 33rd Field Hospital during this fictional account of the Battle of Anzio. One of the true historical event which I had incorporated into the story was the February 10th bombing of the 33rd. The second piece of artwork that graphic artist Jeff Brown did for Book 3-Desire was an allegorical depiction of this bombing event. In the illustration, Tessa and Jesse Garland were (more…)
Rose of Anzio: A Graphic Novel?
Last year, I had the pleasure of working with the Altabe Studio on an anime and illustration project. When I began releasing the Rose of Anzio, I asked Altabe's lead designer, Christine Chong, if she might like to create a graphic novel depiction of a scene from Moonlight. She asked me to provide her a script of the scene. At first, I had wanted to choose a romance scene between Anthony and Tessa. However, one of the early readers of Rose of Anzio suggested that the scene of Tessa and her parents would be interesting. The more I thought more about it, the more I liked the idea. The result is this wonderful two-page illustrated version of the scene of Tessa's departure from England in Chapter 7 of Moonlight. I was absolutely thrilled to see the result. In creating this scene, Christine and I looked through many old photos of early 1940s fashion, as well as search for a real Bulova watch that was manufactured in that era. Afterwards, I shared this with the subscribers to this site. One of the subscribers, Nuria Marquez, the artist who did the lovely pencil sketched fan art of Tessa and Anthony, colored it. What she did was lovely! I'm delighted to be able to share these with you. Hope you enjoy it. You can follow the Altabe Studio on their Facebook page.

D&O Insurance: Though Specific Litigation Exclusion Does Not Apply, Subsequent Suits Related to Prior Claim Not Covered By Kevin LaCroix on September 15, 2014 Posted in D & O Insurance As the litigation wave arrived following the global financial crisis, many financial institutions were hit with multiple suits that arrived piecemeal and over time.

Aperture ending - blessing in disguise?
I'm not happy that Apple has decided to end Aperture without a clear commitment to higher level functions in the Photos app. It may be that Apple has developed a platform that will finally be able to integrate 3rd party software in a very useful way, but that is not certain at this point.
Upon testing Lightroom I now feel I may wind up being thankful for the opportunity that the lack of clarity from Apple has provided. In the last few years I have been using the video functions on my cameras more and more. Indeed that's partly what has driven me to mirrorless systems (m4/3 and Rx100) the last few years, but Aperture's support for newer video files such as AVCHD and now XAVC S has been sorely lacking. Almost all frame rates of AVCHD and all XAVC-S will not even be recognized by Aperture. Lightroom 5 however recognizes, plays and allows on the fly edits of both of those formats. That could be a very good reason for some (including me) to switch to Lightroom even if Aperture continued.
Now I only need to figure out how to keep/get icloud integration and I will be a Lightroom user . . . for now.

Now a revised Chicano Park Murals Documentation Project publication (2015) is available. This revised book includes images of all the restored murals, along with information on the original artists involved in the restoration. At the front of the book is an easy-to-read map of all the murals and their location in the park.

The five cultural expressions captured by this year's project are: Chicano Art as seen in the public and political biography of Victor Ochoa; Chicano Music as seen through the life of Ramon 'Chunky' Sanchez; Community Organizing (Chicano Park Steering Committee) as seen through the life of Tommie Camarillo; Danzantes (indigenous dance) as seen in the life of Rosa Olga Navarro; and Chicano Car Culture (low riders) as lived and experienced by Rigo Reyes.

Class: |

Debut: |
Cilan is a gym leader of the Trio Badge in Striaton City. He shares this duty with his brothers, Chili and Cress, who are triplets with him. Cilan specializes in grass-type Pokémon.
He debuts in Black's memory in the third chapter of the BW Arc.
He observes that Black has been arguing with their customers. They make Black tea as the precursor to the battle.[1]
He and his brothers purposely position themselves so that each has the type advantage over their challengers. For Cilan, that means he is across from Bianca. The battle's rules are that whoever has the most Pokémon standing at the end of 30 minutes wins.
During the triple battle, Pansage uses Vine Whip to knock over Bianca's Oshawott. Seeing that their opponents' teamwork is improving, the brothers use simultaneous Work Ups to power up, knocking out Snivy. When Oshawott knocks out Chili's Pansear, Cilan targets Oshawott's scalchop, destroying it, and then slams Oshawott into a wall with Vine Whip: KO. (Cilan remarks that Oshawott's scalchop will grow back.) Cress's Panpour seems to knock out Black's Tepig, and with half a minute left, the battle is all but won—except that their three enemies get to their feet, flushed with health from eating Pansage's berries, for a 3-2 loss for the gym leaders.
Cilan is sheepish when he realizes Black's plan. They give out badges to the three winners.[2]
He is good-tempered and friendly.

SALT LAKE CITY — On Friday and in conjunction with Zions Bank and the Utah Film Center, the Salt Lake Bees will welcome Academy Award-winning actor Geena Davis to Spring Mobile Ballpark for a 20th anniversary celebration of her hit film "A League of Their Own."
A free showing of the film, to be introduced by Davis, will take place on the outfield grass immediately following the game. In addition, Davis will participate in batting practice with the Bees, throw the ceremonial first pitch prior to the game and lead the crowd in singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" during the seventh-inning stretch.
The event will feature recognition of the Utah Shamrocks, one of the top women's fast-pitch softball teams in the country from 1935-78, while the current USA Baseball Women's National Team coaching staff will also take part in the celebration.

BRIEF-Moody's says Kazakhstan more resilient than Azerbaijan in adjustment to lower oil prices
* Moody's: Kazakhstan more resilient than Azerbaijan in adjustment to lower oil prices
BOGOTA Nov 15 Colombia's coal production from January to September fell to 60 million tonnes, down 11.2 percent from the same period of 2012, the National Mining Agency said on Friday, a drop attributed to strikes at the biggest miners and guerrilla attacks on railways.
The world's No. 4 coal exporter has a nationwide target to produce 94 million tonnes of coal this year, up from 89.2 million tonnes for all of last year, but it will now take a surge in output to achieve it in the final quarter of 2013.
Colombia produced a higher 67.6 million tonnes in the first nine months of last year but disruption in the coal sector has been rife this year with strikes at its top two miners, Cerrejon and Drummond, lasting a month and seven weeks respectively.
Cerrejon, Colombia's top coal miner, is a joint venture Cerrejon between Anglo American Plc, BHP Billiton and Glencore Xstrata Plc. It said this week that hitting its 2013 production was growing more difficult.
U.S.-based Drummond is the No. 2 coal miner.
The government's royalty income from coal fell 28 percent in the first nine months of the year from that period of 2012, to 813 billion pesos ($423 million), compounded by a drop in international coal prices on top of less production.
The performance of Colombia's coal sector, which exports mainly to Europe, is important to the Andean country's economy as its second-biggest source of foreign currency.

Cherries in Winter: My Family's Recipe for Hope in Hard Times
by Suzan ColonWhat is the secret to finding hope in hard times?
When Suzan Colón was laid off from her dream job at a magazine during the economic downturn of 2008, she needed to cut her budget way, way back, and that meant home cooking. Her mother suggested, "Why don't you look in Nana's recipe folder?" In the basement, Suzan found the

Read an Excerpt
Suzan's Rigatoni Disoccupati
[Pasta of the Unemployed]
1/2 lb. pasta
1 small jar prepared spaghetti sauce
Heat a large pot of water until boiling and add half a box of rigatoni or whatever pasta you have. Take lid off jar of sauce and microwave for a few minutes, stirring after each minute to check temperature. Test pasta frequently so it doesn't get overcooked because you're a little distracted. Drain. Put large, comforting amounts on plates. Top just-this-side-of-mushy pasta with nuclear-hot spaghetti sauce. Serve with Italian bread and an explanation of why you're home so early.
"I got laid off today," I tell Nathan.
"Oh," he says, looking to me for a sign of how he should react—How bad is this?
"It's fine," I say. "I'm fine. We're going to be fine."
After all, it's not as though I didn't see this coming. I've written for magazines for twenty-four years now, and there have been two recessions during that time. When the economy starts tanking, people cut back, and if they have to make a choice between food and a magazine, I go from being employed full-time to starting another stint as a freelance writer.
So, months before I got the call from Human Resources at 4:30 on a Friday afternoon (a meeting, I guessed on my way downstairs, that was probably not about a raise and a promotion; I was right), I had begun economizing. I kept a record of my expenses and was surprised to find that I was spending upward of ten dollars a day on lunch—nearly twenty if it was a bad day and I treated myself to sushi.
I stopped eating in the fancy company cafeteria and started brown-bagging it. My lunches were simple: tuna sandwiches, salads, last night's chicken. I asked Nathan what he spent on food in a week. The amount was so startling it led me not only to make his lunches but to bake muffins and put coffee in a thermos for him to take to work as well.
Every morning, once I got from New Jersey to New York, I skipped the subway and walked the remaining mile to the office, weaving through crowds of European tourists buying Levi's jeans and tickets to The Lion King. The summer went by quickly, and the walk became easier when the hordes in Times Square thinned out; as markets all over the world fell with ours, I heard fewer exotic accents.
The closer I got to the glass tower where I worked, the faster I walked, like a woman hurrying to an affair so good she knows it can't last. Oh, did I love that job, and everything that went with it. I loved saying good morning to the dignified security guards who wore not uniforms but suits and ties, and I got a thrill from going up the long escalator that was built into an indoor waterfall. I'd give myself a once-over in the mirrored elevator before stepping out onto my floor, wanting to look good when I walked past the fashion editors at their morning meeting in the conference room. I felt important as I settled down in my office—my own office, with my name on the door and a partial view: a chunk of Central Park and a sliver of East River. In between going to meetings with my bosses and editing features, I'd write about subjects that our readers, and I, found rich and meaningful. I'd always hoped to do this kind of work, and I was proud to be a part of this prestigious team. (Both staff and content were of such high caliber that a friend nicknamed the magazine "Harvard.") My job was so busy and exciting I'd almost forget about the plastic-wrapped sandwich in my bag, and why I'd felt the need to bring one instead of getting the chef's plat du jour in the cafeteria.
Between the two of us, Nathan and I saved about a hundred bucks a week, and I lost around five pounds with those mile sprints. I even wrote an article about my lunch savings for the magazine. (When it was published, the tuna sandwiches and leftover chicken I'd described were accompanied by recipes for Pan Bagnat and Brown Rice Salad with Salmon.) I baked on Sundays and ate a little less at night, the better to have enough for lunch the next day. At work, one of the company chiefs held a special meeting to assure us that there were no plans for salary freezes or layoffs. I kept baking.
Every little bit I did, every dollar I saved, helped me stay calm, as did rehearsing on the walk to work what I would and would not say the day the layoff came. And when it did, I was able to take the news gracefully, accept a hug from a boss relieved that I wasn't throwing a stapler at her, and pack my personal effects quickly.
Normally, eating two bowls of pasta would put me in a carb-induced coma. Tonight, after getting a six-figure pay cut, it's calmed me down enough so that I can begin to take stock.
My family's history of rainy days gave me more than enough incentive to put part of each paycheck into a savings account. It also made me frugal-to a fault, in my mother's eyes. "You need this coat," she said when we were in a department store one afternoon.
"But Mom, it costs six hundred dollars . . ."
"And it looks like it cost a thousand! Buy it, or I'm buying it for you!"
Her rationale betrayed our humble background: "In order to make money," she said as I reluctantly handed over my credit card, "you have to look like you already have it."
Fortunately, I wasn't wearing that coat when I negotiated a freelance contract with my now former company. The monthly stipend won't be enough to retire on, but between that and my unemployment benefits, I can put my bag lady nightmares aside for a while. Another relief is that I'm not doing this alone anymore—now I have a husband who says things like "Don't worry. I've got my job. Have another cookie and relax." Together, we have enough to pay our rent and bills and to buy groceries (less expensive ones, anyway; I may need persuasion to buy fine clothes, but not fine food).
All in all, I feel relatively safe, especially when Mom tells me about what Nana went through during her childhood and the Depression. By those standards, I'm nowhere near trouble.

Take one out of work writer with a rich history of strong women in her past who've overcome difficult financial times and mix generously with frugal recipes from her mother and grandmother and you have Cherries in Winter.
Cherries in Winter is an easy read that's dotted with healthy, home cooked recipes that your Grandmother would be proud to serve and probably has. I loved the easy writing style and heart felt memories of growing up in the depression and other hard financial times that the author shares.
It's particularly comforting during the tough financial times we're facing now to know that other women are in the same boat we are. Suzan Coron writes in a way that lets you laugh at your situation and smile with the hope of a better tomorrow.
This slim book, a mere two hundred pages, is filled with tasty slice of life vignettes, interspersed with delectable recipes. The story recounts snippets of the history of five generations of the writer's family. Recipes for life are found while recalling the lessons learned through cooking and sharing love through the generations. Good times and some very lean times are measured by the recipes, from the Great Depression to the current economic recession. This would make a great holiday gift for any member of the family.
This book is a delight from start to finish. Equating current economic times, and a newly unemployed woman's sudden fear of the future, with her grandmother's experiences going through the depression is, surprisingly, both refreshing and inspiring. There are old-time recipes in this little book that anyone of a certain age will remember and younger readers will find themselves wanting to try. For a small book, this one presents a whole range of interest from humor, to history, to an interest in uncovering your own personal families memories. What a charming book!
I picked this book up out of desperation because I really needed a book to read. I too am unemployed, though the author came from a much more lucrative employment than I had! She writes well & easily & the reader is caught up in her story & her family's story, which is very compelling. We've all had the same issues & possibly thought we could write about them, Ms. Colon does it better than we could. Not sappy, just invites you in & you finish the book thinking "wait, there should be more...what happened next." Worthwhile
Punished by an economy in turmoil, the newly jobless Suzan Colón turns to a swath of family recipes, long buried in her basement, hoping to find some comfort in hard financial times. She quickly realizes how closely her current challenges parallel those of her predecessors.
Childhood tales seam pleasingly into past, future and recipes, a family history powered by food. Already highly relatable in content, Cherries in Winter feels like a worn-in leather armchair, its comfortable manner ensures a steady friendship with any reader who happens along. Her gracefully wrought 'lessons' of economy and cookery, things she learns from her mother and the sheath of unearthed recipes, brim with honest disclosures, both moving and humorous by turn.
And the recipes, country cooking polished by necessary economy, glow heartily as only family fare can, from Aunt Nettie's Clam Chowder to Nana's Lemon Meringue Pie, some reprinted in spidery, early-century handwriting and some typed in 50s secretarial style. What Colón uncovers as she endeavors to survive a layoff with grim prospects is that economizing has always been part of her family's heritage.
Her message? With strengthened family ties and a few good recipes, anything's possible after you've put up soup. A warm tale of hope and family, Cherries in Winter satisfies.
Growing up my mother used to occasionally make "Gravy Bread" which is comprised of day old bread scraps, bacon fat, flour, and water. While the ingredients sound terrible, the dish itself is quite tasty. This Depression era recipe was handed down from my great-grandmother to my grandmother to my mother to me. Many families have similar hardship recipes that have been passed down for generations.
When Suzan Colón, author of Cherries in Winter, is let go from her six figure publishing job she decides to "put up soup." According to Colón "to put up soup" means to do "whatever will sustain you through rough going until things get better." The phrase also literally means to make soup. When Colón decides to "put up soup" she reaches for her Nana's Depression era recipe file of cheap and hearty fare such as: Chicken Pie a la Mississippi; German Potato Salad; Aunt Nettie's Clam Chowder; Quick Apple Cake; Butter Cookies; and Beef Stew with Yeast Dumplings.
Colón discovers that her Nana's recipes fill more than just literal hunger, but also nourish the spirit. As Colón reflects,
"The recipes Nana wrote and saved offer more than directions for making comfort food that sustained my family for four generations. They're artifacts from times good and bad - not vague references, but proof that we've been through worse than this and have come out okay. And right now, that's something I need to know."
Each chapter begins with a recipe that Colón deftly weaves into a poignant lesson for weathering life's storms. Particularly touching is the chapter, "Fine Vases, Cherries in Winter, and Other Lifesaving Devices" in which Colón explains that poverty of the soul is far more crippling than a zero bank account balance. As Colón muses, the little extra spent when there isn't any extra is important because it reminds "us not to become miserly in spirit. We may be broke, but we're not poor."
Cherries in Winter is a literary hot bowl of chowder for a weary reader's soul.

Advance Review Copy Provided Courtesy of the Publisher.
As many of us do, I well remember my grandparents talking about the Great Depression. Little did I dream that some day I might be having a similar experience, so I recall what they told me and the stories of how they coped. Thus, I feel an affinity for Suzan Colon and what she learned when she went down to the basement and found her grandmother's cookbook.
Matilda was her grandmother's name and she had left not only a collection of favorite recipes but also commentary, wise words from the past. At this point in her life Colon needed all the help she could get. It was 2008 and she'd just been laid off from her magazine editor's job in the downturn that left so many out of work. (She's now a contributing editor with O (the Oprah magazine).
Nonetheless, more than the tried and true recipes from Grandmother Matilda she found a chronicle of how her family had gotten through some very tough times. Thus, what we have in CHERRIES IN WINTER is not only menu suggestions but examples to buoy our spirits.
Hearing Colon read her story is a large plus as she brings a timbre and feeling to it which would be very hard for a professional narrator to duplicate. For those who are feeling a bit down, CHERRIES IN WINTER is a viable tonic.

It's not that I miss the "glory days" at all, but that while the media world of skiing has changed dramatically, the world of the typical resort skier has not. Moguls are still there, as they've always been, and as much as we'd like to ignore them, they're still the biggest challege facing your average skier.
Well that and powder, but obviously less of a concern at some mountains, and in some years.
People tell me Killington is nothing like it was 10 years ago when I left, which I guess is a little disappointing, but whatever. I don't ignore bumps as a rule, I just don't make them my central focus. If I did, I'd probably still be at Killington harassing mountain management.
Anyway, back to the average skier. I don't think a lot of average skiers really appreciate being challenged, and by average, I mean the terminal advanced intermediate (can't ski moguls, steeps, technical, or powder). They're usually the first ones bitching at mountain ops to flatten everything, and seemingly are the only customers whose opinion matters to the resorts who wish to stay in business, and not be sued.
The extreme marketing seems to come more from the non-resort side, but I don't think it's changed all that much over the years. Attention has always been given to skiers and feats that are most likely not within the realm of possibility for most aspiring skiers, it's just the realm of possibility that's expanded.

Who wins? On clay it is obvious. On grass it is obvious (probably). Probably the fairest matchup would be a slow HC, no? I think the result might have looked a bit like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO6lalt5f6M
Sampras on fast grass or faster indoor, especially if both limited to full sets of gut only, otherwise, anything slower and Nadal has the edge. Clay would be ugly.
Sampras would win on fast courts but lose on slow ones, not consistant enough off the ground to beat Nadal. Sampras' backhand would be torn up by the Nadal forehand.
If Sampras/Nadal played in Sampras' time, then Sampras would win his usual suspects: Wimbledon Queens/Halle US Open WTF Madrid/Hamburg Sampras would get raped everywhere else without a doubt. Sampras' backhand was nowhere near as good as Federer's. If Sampras/Nadal played on today's surfaces, I think Sampras maybe wins on grass and nowhere else. I just don't see S&V working anywhere else. Not even indoor hard. Nadal's passing is way too good.
So you think the US Open has slowed down then? How do you think Agassi would far against Nadal? Do you think it would be a matchup issue?
Tough to predict, really. Sampras just didnt play a player of the calibre of nadal. Whereas nadal has played federer and djokovic. Both of whom were at least as dominant during a year as pete sampras. They have each played a player of a similar gamestyle - for sampras - muster, bruguera, corretja etc. for nadal - tsonga, federer. Sampras beat and lost to all those guys on his favorite surfaces. Nadal can beat tsonga but not federer indoors, but he can still challenge him.
The US Open has slowed a little, but Sampras' serve is far superior to Federer's. Sampras could merely serve his way to victory there against Nadal. As far as Agassi, I strongly believe he had the best (baseline) forehand and backhand in the history of the game. If Nadal were in Agassi's era, I think Nadal would have been reduced to a clay specialist who may not have even entered the big hardcourt or grass events. At an old age, Agassi gave Nadal fits being able to hit clean winners off of both wings. I honestly think prime Agassi would have destroyed Nadal anywhere else but clay.
Nadal is a much better mover than Agassi ever was. I think it would be a fun match up as both can belt it off both wings.
What a ridiculous post, Agassi lost both matches he played against Nadal relatively decisively. His 2006 loss at Wimbledon can be excused but the 2005 Montreal match was a final and Agassi would go on to make the USO final that year; he was certainly in decent form. Nadal himself was still not even close to the hard court or grass player he would eventually become in 2008-present, and he still handled Agassi pretty easily at age 19. They would have competitive matches on HC IMO, with Nadal cleaning up on clay and leading clearly on grass. The players who can dominate Nadal on hard court (basically only Djokovic and Davydenko) have MUCH better movement than Agassi, Andre wouldn't be able to do what these guys did to Nadal because he simply doesn't cover the court as well.
Um, you realize that Agassi was 35 AND 36 YEARS OLD, right? He was so far past prime (and from decent form) that it wasn't funny. For goodness sakes, he retired in the US Open 2006. I watched Agassi during his entire career. I've watched Nadal his entire career. During Agassi's prime, he would have eaten Nadal alive. Nadal has no S&V game. The only style of game that beat prime-Agassi was S&V. The absolutely only reason that Federer has not been able to dominate Nadal is because Roger's backhand is not up to the task. Agassi, with probably the best backhand in the history of the game, did not have that weakness.
What Tsonga did to Nadal en route to the AO final, that's what Pete would do to Nadal routinely on faster courts.
Yes, and Agassi was playing good tennis (he reached the FINAL of the tournament) and would reach the final of the US Open a few weeks later (giving a prime Federer a tough match). It wasn't until 2006 that Agassi's form really went down the toilet. I'm not suggesting that 2005 was prime Agassi, but he was playing some great ball and was certainly not in horrible form. Not saying Nadal would beat Agassi every time, but that match leads me to say that Agassi wouldn't dominate Nadal by any means. Nadal was FAR off his best hard court form in that match as well (only 19 years old, wouldn't reach a HC slam semifinal for 3 more years), he would only reach it in 2009-present. Like I said, players who have given Nadal fits on hard court have all had one attribute in common, great movement. There are plenty of players with great backhands who Nadal dominates because they cannot keep up with him athletically. Agassi didn't even have a great serve, which could somewhat compensate for the movement disadvantage he had against Nadal. I think Nadal would solidly lead the H2H when accounting for all surfaces, Agassi may have a slight edge on HC but Nadal's edge on clay and grass (modern grass, at least) would be a lot bigger.
I'm sorry, but these statements are extremely inaccurate. And his form was very sub-standard. He had some moments of brilliance, but nothing like his prime. To say otherwise is absolutely inaccurate. The guy was a walking cortisone injection by 2005. He could hardly move and was only relying on his sheer power on both flanks to beat people. The only reason he made it into the finals of the USO in 2005 was because the draw opened up for him and gave him some cakewalk opponents. BTW, Agassi was my idol. I'm not dissing him at all. It was incredible that he was able to do what he did at a late age.
You are right. How ether, Agassi moments of brilliance where shiner during his prime, but he wasn't the most consistent player either. I don't know what would be the outcome of peak Agassi vs peak Nadal, but tennis is not about who is better when he is at his best against another who is at his best too, it's about who is more able to often bring a great level to the court. And Nadal is better at that. On a different matter, how do you know the total number of points available each year for your percentage of points won by the top 10 calculation?
ah chopin..I think you're the one with the cool story bro. the real question is...put nadal in the nineties..would he even make far enough thru the draw to reach agassi. heck, we're talking about aguy...already a double grand salm winnner..who could barely make it past a guy ranked 300 in the world s&v(kendrick) ...pretty pathetic really...and you really think nadal would hae no problem getting past scud, krajicek,goran etc so he could even get to dre? How do we know this? because muster was right up there with dre and pete in the rankings in the mid nineties..and NEVER made it far enough thru the draw to get to pete or dre....he was ALWAYS tripped up by a stich or a rafter like figure who thrashed him. overall I think nadal would give agassi a hard time on clay..but on hc's, especially hard like US..dre would be running nadal around.
It is flawless logic. You can't transport this version of Nadal vs 95 version of Sampras. Of course Nadal wins probably. Evolution of tennis. But consider this. Annacone said this. That greats will be greats no matter what era you put them in. They have this something special. They all would've adapted to different conditions. If you put Nadal in 95 he doesn't have the strokes and technique of today. Nor the same fitness levels.Nor the knowledge of the game from previous eras. Of tactics, mentality... So if you put Nadal in the past his level wouldn't be as good. But also level of his competition wouldn't be as good. Evolution of tennis. New era is stronger not greater or better. So at the end if you put two greats in the same era, they would have taken titles from each other. You can extrapolate from their results. For fun but it is pointless. 5 years Nadal vs Sampras. There are 20 slams. 5 each. So extrapolating from their results. Sampras Nadal RG : 0 3 W: 3 1 USO: 4 1 AO: 2 1 9-6 in slams. Other 5 slams for the opposition.
I looked up the end-of-year standings of the Top-100 on the ATP world tour website and imported each year's list into separate Excel worksheets. Then, on the main worksheet, I have the overall formulas and graphs which will build from the data on the underlying worksheets.
WHAT? Sampras isnt winning on clay against nadal regardless what color, altitude or if there is a roof. Have you seen him move on the stuff?
Sampras would have the decisive advantage overall on every surface but clay. His serve and attack and nerves of steel holding Serve would be the x-factor Slow or fast grass-Sampras Slow-Medium HC- Sampras Indoors of any type (Hardcourt or Carpet) Sampras Fast HC- Sampras Clay-Nadal
Madrid is a fast-rated court. That is why Nadal hasn't been so successful there and other fast HC players (like Federer) have been successful there. It really is the exception to all of the rest of the clay courts. They say that Madrid is as fast (or faster) than the US Open.
People are thinking I'm trying to diss Nadal. Not at all. I'm just saying that in Sampras' generation, the HC and grass competition was insanely good. Not only that, but the clay competition was also very good. Certainly the clay field back then was better than the mugs and cupcakes (outside of Federer) that Nadal has had to face. The same goes for Federer on grass. Nadal still would have been awesome, but he has far less of a chance of winning 7 FO. He *definitely* has far less chance of winning two Wimbledons. It shocks me that people disagree with me on this. I mean, that field was awesome.
LMAO. faster than the usopen? No. Who is they? Yes, federer wins there. Therefore sampras wins there? Uh no. Federer is dominant on fast HC. But he is an excellent clay court player. Sampras? Lets not talk about pete on clay. Speed is not the only factor. Pete didnt know how to move on clay regardless of speed and bounce. Pete has virtually no chance on clay in madrid against nadal. And Nadal's record isnt bad in madrid anyways. Having won there twice and gone to the final twice. He only lost on blue clay early, which happened once. He also had won hamburg, which is very slow. Pete on a slow hamburg clay court? LOL. Federer is a far superior player to sampras on clay. Just because fed does well on clay, doesnt mean pete would do well. One guy grew up moving on the surface, the other gets stuck in the sand. What has pete done on clay? Win a grand total of one Rome masters series. Somehow that translated into him beating nadal in madrid where nadal has had very good success losing to only two other excellent clay courters on red clay - djokovic and federer.
Pete did alright on clay from 92-96. Beat Muster, Agassi, Bruguera, Courier. Won Rome,Davis Cup, got deep at the French. He did alright. Not a MUG on clay in his prime
The clay field was much tougher back then. Clearly Pete decided to save himself for non-clay events quite often... and just not enter clay events. But when you look at H2H and his record, it isn't that bad. Of the matches he played, he was 63% win for his career. I'm not sure why he didn't try to get better on clay. His S&V ability was unreal. I know his backhand wasn't anything special, but I don't think it was as much of a liability as people make it out to be.
Yea it was more deep back then. In fact, the clay field overall has SUCKED since then. Muster, Agassi, Kafelnikov, Medvedev, Bruguera, Courier, then Guga later on. There hasn't been a time since where you had depth of a clay field like that. Since the 00's its been pretty good as far as hardcourt goes. Grass, clay and indoors? Heehh. A different story. Thats why I always said it was more difficult to dominate back then. EACH SURFACE had depth to do it because of the specialists who excelled on a surface. Now you only have depth on one surface (hard courts). With no depth on any other. And there hasn't been depth of competition on all surface since the 90s
lol wut ? nadal has won madrid twice on red clay and made two other finals .. only on blue clay in 2012, where courts were under-prepared it was fast ...
63% record IS bad for an all time great. He didn't get better on clay because he wasn't good enough , the movement wasn't there , he lacked patience and of course was susceptible to the high ball especially on the BH side ...
on slow HC, nadal ripping apart sampras' BH could be the x-factor. its pretty close b/w them on slow HC ..
I hear what you're saying, but I just don't know if it is accurate. I always wanted to read his book "A Champions Mind" to see if he talks about his efforts on clay. I'd love to read in his own words what issues he faced. Why he chose to play the events he did. Why he bowed out of others.
yes, so awesome that pioline, martin etc were making multiple finals and getting crushed. so awesome that washington made a wimbledon final. so awesome that kafelnikov could become #1 after 7 defeats in a row. so awesome that moya could become #1. spare me the bunch of baloney. the 90s was no stronger than the 2000s. It was more diverse, but less consistent. sampras' greatest competition on grass was the headcase goran, a weaker player on 90s grass than federer's greatest competition on grass of today, nadal. Agassi was MIA in majors from 93-mid 94 and then again from 96-1998 courier burnt out after 93 though he did ok till 96. edberg was done by mid-93 becker was only consistently threatening in indoor conditions in the mid-90s, only occasional good performances elsewhere krajicek was perennially injured ... stich had his focus problems. if any of these 2 or both got their head/body together, it would've been big time trouble for sampras. for instance , goran barely got through krajicek in 98 wimbledon semi, but choked vs sampras in the final. If krajicek had got through instead, we could very well be talking about 6 time wimbledon champion sampras, not 7 time .. similarly the case with stich/pioline in 97 wimby. pioline played well to take out stich in the semi, but surrendered meekly in the final. If it was stich in the final instead, it could very well have been a different story.
Grass: Sampras HC:Sampras Clay: Ralph Don't wanna talk about slow HC because HC shouldn't be slow in the first place.
When there is a lot of ups and downs, surface specialists, real differences in surfaces, and half the amount of seeds in the majors (first round upsets were a norm), and different styles of play.....your going to have inconsistant results in the slams because of the depth. The next thing you know there are a whole bunch of guys with majors. There late-early 90s and the late90s-early 2000s is the most depth tennis has ever seen. In those times there were 8-10 different guys who could come through at the majors be it they already had titles or were just getting started. Top players now have it easy. They are well insulated from upsets early in the tournamnet if they do their part. Everyone basically plays the same game on every surface. In the 90s you could not stay back at wimbledon, you could not play all defence at the Open. You should watch some old matches from those eras I meantioned....hell....watch Conners 91 US Open run.....hes at the net all the time...that was Conners! Lendl had to change his entire game to serve and volley to do well at Wimbledon and even skip the French. Can you Imagine Djokavik having to completely change his game and skip a major? Thats the difference between then and now. Lendl would have won Wimbledon a couple of time in this era. Chang would have a US Open title.
lendl would have won a couple of wimbledons in this era ( given no federer) . But chang winning a USO ? nah, doubt it . the 70s and 80s had lot of variety as well, but there were far more consistent contenders than in the 90s. which is why I think while it being more varied was part of less consistency in the 90s when compared to the 2000s , it isn't the whole story at all. Its just being used an excuse for the inconsistency in the 90s was agassi not making a slam final in 93-mid 94 and 96-98 because of the variety ? no, it was just because he was inconsistent, 'headcasey', injured ...he was certainly the most surface-versatile player in that time . was courier's burn out because of variety ? no, it was just his style .. were stich/krajicek's injury/consistency problems because of variety ? no , that's who they were ...
You dont seem to understand the complexities of the issues I bring up. These players in this era are for the most part one dimensional players. The willingness to come to the net is rare. It was just not possible to dominate with one dimensional games in those eras. Add to that the fact that because the field is one dimensional court positioning is very much neglected. Modern players move great but court positioning is not as good as it once was because nobody is looking to come to the net given the chance. I would like to see a player on todays tour exploit this. Edberg was the best I have ever seen at this. One wrong shot and he was making you pay for it...not with power or spin but with good positioning and a desire to take the court awat from you. I will give you another one....the challange system. It protects the top players where one bad call can turn a match around. There were many an upset in the pre challenge system days when a line call was close and a player freaked out. Plus...like I said....half as many seeds meant dangerous players could pull off an upset. I have been watching tennis for a long time and the last ten years have really screwed up how awesome the sport once was to witness. What we see now is very similar to how the juniors were played out in those years. In short its become the WTA. Where it goes from here is only down if they dont get the surfaces straightened out. The sad part is the game will have to completely die off for it to happen....if ever. I dont see a day when this sport truelly gets exciting again without different styles of play on different surface speeds. Variety is the spice of life afterall and the way they are going now they should just be done with it and make it all one surface. It aint the string....it aint the racquets....polyester and widebodies have been around for a looooong time. Rafter played against both and did just fine.
Fragile bodied shotmakers that could get hot in a tournamnet and blow guys off the court. Their bodiers would never hold up in this era. They were extremley dangerous though and could take out top seeds when healthy Also...because of the surfaces and different styles of play you had some truely great servers that would mix things up far more than today. Todays servers are very predictable. This was not the case with the great servers of the 90s.
based on what ? I said he'd win a couple of wimbledons, if there was no federer, because the wimbledon of today suits his play better than it did in his generation . But I just don't see him getting past federer in a best of 5 on grass not even close to reality , plenty of players in this era could blow chang off court : federer, older agassi, safin, nalbandian, roddick, soderling, berdych, tsonga, ljubicic, gonzalez, blake, djokovic, del potro, cilic, fish, raonic, gulbis, janowicz etc. even nadal, murray, hewitt have easily more power than chang did they were simply better and more consistent than the 90s, though the conditions in the 70s and 80s were varied widely. Hence the point about major part of 90s being inconsistent because that's how the players were, rather than only putting the focus on the more varied conditions. that was my point. mid and late 90s ..... which was mainly the part where sampras dominated. so his competition was not tough. yeah, so if the 2nd best player of that decade was so hot and cold, what does it say about consistency in that decade . exactly. But they were hugely inconsistent. Hence though the names are mentioned frequently, they were less of a force on a consistent basis than what it is made out to be. it was both physical and mental. he had dead arm problem by 93 . no one in the spanish armada in the 90s had anywhere close to the success that courier did. that is total BS IMO. I find it ridiculous how much the serving of this generation is under-rated. The servers of today are just as good and vary their serve just as well as did the 90s generation roddick, karlovic, isner, ljubicic, federer, johansson, safin, raonic, janowicz, gulbis, soderling, lopez, fish, ancic, dent
I don't under-rate this at all. I do think nadal, djokovic have benefited the most out of this. federer has better all-court and varied skills to deal with the varied conditions and would've done almost as well in any other era. Probably more upsets in best of 3 matches, but best of 5, I really don't see that much of a difference. even the likes of murray, hewitt etc. would've benefited from faster conditions totally lopsided and biased. How about in the olden times if a wrong call went against the lesser player. The lesser player is more likely to lose to it than the better player, don't you think ? agree with this. But again this only difference b/w the 2000s and 90s. doesn't explain why the drop off in consistency in 90s from 70s and 80s ....
Maybe the drop off in consistency is psychological or motivational. Maybe it was popular being a specialist. Or maybe we have placebo effect. I mean beliefs are contagious. Maybe ppl for some reason believed it is impossible to be consistent therefore didn't even try. Psychological limits. Just my two cents.
It should be a 5 set match each set played on different courts. Grass-Sampras Clay-Nadal Fast HC-Sampras Slow HC-Nadal Indoor HC-Sampras Sampras wins in a 5 Setter classic
http://www.stevegtennis.com/head-to-head/men/Andre_Agassi/Thomas_Muster/ Referring you to Agassi's record against another lefty baseliner known for his endurance and topspin. Is Nadal not better than Muster? I recognize that you cannot transplant matchups directly, however to assert that Nadal would have no chance against Andre because of how he plays just doesn't hold water. Nadal's level of baseline play is higher than virtually everybody that Andre ever played against.
This is not necessarily true. Courier did very well against Agassi and Nadal plays a very similar style, if not arguably better. I modeled my forehand after Agassi and he was my favorite player but I don't pretend he's unbeatable.
