why is Andy Roddick a +310 underdog or so?? That seems big for a possible toss up type of match.

seems the big serves will hold serve 90% plus either way so its a fluke game, bad bounce, missed line call, here or there that will decide it. Sort of like a coin flip where you are getting +310 or so.

Federer beat Roddick badly in 3 sets last year. Also he is 5-1 L6. None of those wins were flukes. Line is just about right...Best Wishes...OF

Federer has won 23 straight matches on grass. Which makes him big favorite to win #24.

Federer is too much for him in my opinion. I am a tennis junkie myself.

Federer has won something like 23 straight on grass...he is a savage. I think he can break Roderick, but I don't think Roderick will break him. The guy has only lost serve 2 times in the whole tourney. He has only lost 1 set. He is on a roll.

But then again...look what happened to Serena Williams. Like you say...anything can happen.

One of the few times the Men's Final will be as fun and good as the Women's Final at Wimbledon.....

The match streak, the grass streak, the current form, and better ability to break serve make the number about right, but I am primarily a follower at tennis, and will go with Rail's calls once again..the ESPN crew thinks Federer is too strong in the end.

Ancic looked in it vs Roddick until choking up near the net late 2nd set.

The men's game needs a new Borg-McEnroe, I hope it's a good one Sunday, as women's tennis has been much more enjoyable viewing these past few years on average.

interesting discussion.

I just see 2 or 3 breaks total in this match and could see them going for Roddick just as easy as Federer. a fluke here a net court winner there. A tie breaker would be a total 50-50 toss up with the way these two guys serve.

do you all have your strawberries strawberries strawberries ready?

I am sorry but these guys are boring to watch in Wimbledon. You can count the exciting points on one hand. How exciting can it be when every single point is serve and volley?

red007 · Jul 3, 2004

its not boring if you have money riding on the matches.
btw, federer in 3

Federer easily

Railbird sighting. As much as I hate chalk, this looks like one of those times to lay it.

Thanks, wil.

2 or 3 breaks????? yeah at least but for ROGER alone....he is too good for roddick...roddick wont be able to do shit to roger's serve.....any roger reads roddick like a book.....federer will win 3-0....+146 seems the best bet for this match cuz laying -350 is just insane
