Juan Martin del Potro is on a roll folks, gunning today to record his 29th win in his last 30 matches (his only loss in that streak was to Andy Murray, at the US Open. A win in Tokyo, where on a collision course with a resurgent Andy Roddick. In his last match, del Potro notched up another impressive win over a Top 10 player, hammering David Ferrer into submission. I'm auto-posting this late Friday night, because I have to be down at County Tire by 8 a.m. tomorrow in Delhi, our county seat and the town adjacent to game-rich Andes. How international am I? I hope you enjoy the tennis today - as well as this great fall weather. I have a question for y'all. Do you like the single-image (or, should I say, iconic image) we use here to identify Your Call posts, or should we mix it up with actual player photos, perhaps using this couch potato photo as a thumbnail (kind of like the now forgotten watercooler image?). Just wondering. . .
