I had dim sum with the family yesterday at Crown Palace in Marlborough, NJ to celebrate a pair of birthdays, and on the way home my cousin Alan flipped around the radio listening to the Giants and Jets games--in which he has fantasy investments this year.
Early on, Alan was taking it on the chin, losing to an opponent who had drafted both Donovan McNabb and Terrell Owens. (McNabb's four TD passes and Owens's three catches totaled 42 fantasy points.) Alan's day was somewhat redeemed by Tiki Barber's late-game 75-yard TD run, making the score 31-14.
I got home in time to watch Roger Federer finish off Lleyton Hewitt 6-0, 7-6, 6-0. And going in, I thought the Aussie counterpuncher would have a chance if Federer's serve was less than perfect. It turned out all of Federer's shots were cleaner, just that much more accurate. Following wins at the Australian Open and Wimbledon, Federer became the first man since Mats Wilander to win at least three Grand Slams in the same year.
