I think it is just as well we don’t understand Spanish! Towards the end of the first clip she is writhing around as if she was a pole dancer and they the poles.
For those of you who want to watch today’s match, here’s a link to the stream. If you scroll down, it says “Ver Rafael Nadal vs Novak Djokovic aqui” (See Rafa vs Novak here). Click on that for the stream. It’s 8 pm local Santiago time. http://bit.ly/1fQUBlT
^^^Also, according to the Movistar arena website and a woman who posts on another site and has tickets, Rafa vs Novak is the last event and doesn’t start until 10:30 pm local time. Nalbandian’s exo is first.
Rafa (and N.Djokovic, D.Nalbandian, N.Massu) visited Chilean President.
Rafa has got a good haircut. I like that he hasn’t put hair gel on his hair. http://tinyurl.com/o9wbqwu
Rafa is going to start his next season in Doha, Qatar. The Qatar Open 2014 (ATP-250) will begin on Dec.30. Other participants: David Ferrer, Andy Murray, Tomas Berdych, Richard Gasquet, ….
i am just getting a blank screen for the first link. The link you have just put up, appears you need to be be signed upfor but I cant fathom out how to do that. I might give up because the Rafa match is scheduled for 4a.m. not sure I have the stamina to stay up/or get up for an exhibition match at that time.
http://www.movistarchile.tv/tenis This is one of the better links to the exho. Just ceremonies at the moment. You have to expand it to full screen for the black bar and other screen annoyances to go away.
The http://www.movistarchile.tv/tenis link will take you directly there. When it first appears, you’ll have sound and the screen but a black bar and other stuff will be there. If you expand, all of that will go away. Nalbandian is warming up now.
See above. It was ok with both players playing at about half-speed interspersed with a few great shots but not my cup of tea. A few smiles. Nole’s post-match spanish was pretty impressive!
Rafa started to wear well-tailored & well-fitted suits after he became a model for Armani underwear and jeans. I think, he wears custom-made Armani suits.
Does anyone know what the presenter said to Rafa and Nalby? I just love Nalby’s matching shoes and belt.

Has Djokovic played many (any?) exhibition matches? Don’t recall. Be interesting to see how the Rafole exho plays out compared to say Raferer exhos.
Here’s a pic of Rafa and Novak arriving for a dinner in Chile. What’s the deal with those cars in the background that are pointed downward? Is that some kind of art display? https://scontent-a-sea.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/1453430_668587496508576_982079170_n.jpg

—Is that some kind of art display?—
Probably. It’s a fashion museum.

Best ATP points of 2013 (chosen by ATP). Plenty of Rafa 😉
Looks like movistar is only going to show the Nalbandian match. Rafa and Novak can be seen here right now. http://www.rojadirecta.me/goto/yafecedepor1.blogspot.com/
Nalbandian lost to Massu
Choose watching rojadirecta at your own risk. My anti-virus tells me it has reported problems, so I won’t be watching it.
I’m watching. I think that’s Rafa’s brother.
6-5 Nole in the 1st. Both players playing half-speed being careful not to break the other’s serve. The odd awkward smile from thine to time.
A few nice shots but I don’t understand the attraction to these types of exhos TBH.
1st set tiebreak.
#NID
I think Rafa will “lose” this TB.
Speaking of TB…
DO YOUUUUUU???????
Nole “wins” the TB 7-3.
I think Rafa will “win” the 2nd set.
#NID
#Yawn
Rafa just hit an absolutely amazing backhand lob.
Nole “wins” in two sets. Would have been bad form for Rafa to end Nole’s winning streak so should’ve known!
how was the match?

Someone get Rafa a stylist…………fast! Those socks………..

Men should never be allowed to choose their own socks or ties.
However he has got himself a new tailor – those suits he’s been wearing recently are the bee’s knees.
Quite agree ed251137, Rafa really has improved as far as the quality of his suits is concerned, and he does wear them well.
Now for the socks…………………..
Rafa started to wear well-tailored & well-fitted suits after he became a model for Armani underwear and jeans. I think, he wears custom-made Armani suits.

Ah RITB, there’s your answer to your previous q: “Who wears socks these days?”……;)
