    Of course you can, just ask Nick Krygios. Immensely talented, but couldn't give a covfefe most of the time.

    Oh sweetie I haven't given up on him! He is ENORMOUSLY talented which I do not have to tell you and just has to grow up. He has to figure it out. I still have hope that he will appreciate his gifts and once he does that the rest will fill in automatically. In fact I hope one day I can say to you "I told you so". Thank you for your reply and Happy Saturday Sbf! )

    Bernard Tomic's attitude is even harder to take - he's actually smug about how little he cares. If that's really the way you feel, Charlie, then bugger off and do something else.

    That is seriously sick. I don't like smug no matter how it's wrapped or presented.  I just bounced  Tomic's name off Jim and he said "his attitude doesn't draw me to him particularly".  I just don't understand  WHY anyone would be disdainful about any talent/ability he or she  has. It's like a slap in the face to those other players who work so hard and care so much..not to mention a slap in the face to tennis fans. It's kinda like complimenting someone on a sweater and being told "oh this old thing?"Makes you wish you had stifled it. Anyway I have the Australian Open dates on our Bulletin Board. We don't have the 2018 calendar yet. It goes from Jan 15-28 which I know you know! I can hardly wait! Thank you for your reply Sbf and Happy Sunday! :)
