USO: I want to like you.

 

 

 

 

I really want to like you. So I'm going to make the rules very simple:

 

1) Don’t knock out members of my stable.

 

Alas, Boudica…

(Capra d. Rezai 7-5 2-6 6-3)

 

 

2) Don’t ever knock out members of my stable.

 

 

Wudja just look at who’s next.

(Masha d. Benny 6-1 6-2)

 

3) If you really must, then please make it count.

 

 

You know what you must  do.

(Woz d. Chang 6-0 6-0)

 

 

In all seriousness, I think I’m going to like this kid. In fact, I’m going to try very hard to like this kid.

 

Comparing her to Melanie Oudin would be a good way to wreck all of that.

 

Please stop it.
