    Ricky,
    I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question.

      like how did you get the picture so big? or did you just find the full size picture on the internet and then paste it separately?

    I copied the small picture and “Searched Google for this image”.
    I found the big picture here (see the gallery):

Soooooo much greatness. Including “Honey Nut Kyrgios” (my favorite BG nickname ever) and all the speculation about what was wrong with Novak at the beginning of the third set. And of course the ode to our dearly departed (from journalism) Neil Harman. 😀

Another one for the books Ricky! Great job. Questions re: the avatars:
1) Why is Kyrgios’s a picture of Kim Sears with the ‘Parental Advisory’ shirt on?
2) Federer’s avatar??

  1) because Kyrgios also has a swearing problem (remember the guy with the phone during his match vs. Seppi)
  
  2) Federer got stung by a bee during the Australian Open (this is a Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket logo)

Some sorry comments for a sorry tournament. Feel bad for AO 2015, but then was it their fault in part? Everyone trying to be too witty….doesn’t work

Loved all the inside jokes and references….and am sure I only got 50-60% of them…very clever and funny!

Brilliant as always. Favorite avatars: Delpo (is that Barbaro?) Nalby, Alexandra Panova (Tommy!!) and Gaudio (I’ve missed you Gaston). Am I correct to interpret Gaudio’s avatar as a 1-hit-wonder?
I would have used the bent-over ball boy for Feli 🙂

  Nice work Jeu. You are correct on Gaudio and Barbaro.

  ball boy was referenced in Feli’s comment, so would have been overkill to use in avatar. Otherwise yes!

The internet keeps waiting patiently for the Rolland Garros installment. Where is it?! The internet is getting all cold turkey. Wimbledon is already on its way. Please the internet. Please.
