I had lost interest in this year's French Open when Jennifer Capriati lost to Russian Anastasia Myskina (who went on to win the title), but by chance I had the set on with Gaston Gaudio losing to Guillermo Coria (both of Argentina). The unseeded Gaudio was down 0-6, 4-6, looking outmatched and dispirited, when the stadium crowd did the Wave. Both players smiled, and the tension lifted.
From there it was a seesaw match, with Gaudio coming back from match point down to take the fifth set 8-6. Gotta love when a sport encompasses the range of human emotion.

And speaking of sports, I'm guessing you saw the Pistons spank the Lakers a few minutes ago. L.A. looked old and slow. Outside of Shaq and Kobe, their highest scoring player had 5 points.
The Lakers are a great team, and probably won't play like this again, but there's no denying this was a first-rate butt kicking. Boo-yeah!
