What can I say to top that?

RG: Rafa's French Open Outfit Preview

Thanks to Down The Line, we Rafanatics are blessed with the preview of Rafa's Roland Garros getup.

His Devastatingness will be wearing the following combo: Nadal French Open Men's Tennis Polo Shirt, Nike Reversible Men's Tennis Hoody, with the Bold Open Men's Tennis Shorts.

Thoughts? Like the jacket. Pants looks comfy. Not feeling the shirt.

But we have this to think about: when Rafa sweats, that white shirt is gonna be blessedly see through. Well it better be! Yup, glass half full, that's me alright.

SEO Miami: Rafa Through To Third Round, Debuts Collar (again)

Suffice to say I didn't watch the match. I mean, who the hey wakes up at 7 AM? Not me.

Rafa smoked Gabashvili's ass, 62, 62. No news there right?

But wait:

Collar alert!!

Yeah. You know what, I'm over the whole "new wardrobe" thing. He wants to wear it. He looks good. I like the colors. Did Nike mitchy-matchy the yellow to his Babolat racquet? Hee.

When I see pictures like this, I could care less what he wears. Cos that's one hell of a good looking man, people. Collar, no collar, sleeves, no sleeves. Of course, no clothes is better, but alas, Benito is standing in our way.

Up next for Rafa, Frederico Gil who beat Ivo Karlovic 64, 64.

Rafa Is That Chu???

Sorry, just messing with y'all. Slow day. Can't wait til match.

But oh well. Any reason to put up some hottie pictures.

Doesn't he look deliciously pouty??

You know, considering I like a player because they play well, I have an unexplainable obsession for this one.

Probably because of his humps and lumps, ifyacatchmydrift.

SEO: Yet Another Rafa Interview (not as if we're complaining)

Another video of the interview Rafa did 2 days ago. Check it out.

The way he said "yeeaah is very interresting tourrnament" with that deadpan expression just cracked me up.



Oh, and for the record, if Nike is gonna sell those El Toro caps in pink, I am so making an homage to it. How? I will wallpaper my blog pink combined with that bull pattern. I will hurt your eyes and squeeee night and day. Why pink? My friends called me Bubblegum Princess in college. Explanation enough?

p.s: I'm not obsessed with pink, I swear, the color just fascinates me.

Frisky Friday: A Whole New Twist On VPL

What in this picture makes me frisky and ready for my Friday?

The posture, the movement, the trimness of his waist...

Oh yes, the VPL...

...and the bubble butt.

How can I ever resist?

Happy weekend, Rafanatics.

Rafa Answers For Once, And The World Shakes

So everyone's talking about this.

Q. Would you prefer to go out with a girl that is in tennis, that is a tennis player, or any other girl? Just has nothing to do with it.

RAFAEL NADAL: It is not -- I don't have any preference, you know. Prefer go out with nice and funny girl. Doesn't matter if is player or artist.

This is from the presser yesterday - and looks like it's shaking things up in the Rafanatics/Rafisca/Rafana obsessive world. Oh yes, there is a video recording the interview too!



The whole video is worth watching by itself - fully animated Rafaexpressions! The part of The Question (and The Answer) is at the very end. Frankly? I read and watched the video yesterday and didn't think much of it. But you tell me, Rafanatics!

I did wonder though.. Nice and fun? I can be nice. In fact, I can be verrrrry nice to you, Rafito. And I'm definitely funny, just ask my readers.

*points guns to readers' heads*

Just sayin'. In case. You know. Ahem.

Yep, definitely going out with her because she's nice and funny.

A Play On Rafa's Expressions

Forty Deuce finds a twist in the presser pics from yesterday. Cracked me up so good I have to share.

Pic This: Those Golfing Pictures Still Have Me In A Tizzy.

Pic This: Oh, Mowgli, How You Rule So Much

Miami: Conference Pictures, Is Rafa Getting A New Line From Nike?

Down The Line Tennis got me wondering. Rafa has been seen wearing this cap a few times. RiCh from DTL is working on a nagging suspicion if Nike is cutting El Toro a new line much like Roger's RF.

I don't know what to think about Rafa comandeering his own line, as we all know what people think of Roger and his RF.

On the other hand, his expression is always a laugh.

And just because this is my blog - The Ginge Hotness:

Okay, he looks 14. Now I feel guilty. No wait, not really.

Am I the only one who thinks he looks a little gaunt? Come to think of it, Rafa's cheekbones are quite evident. Lovers' quarrel? Aww.

And because it cracks me up (and some of you might like it):

Sydney Swans rugby team in training. (swans? seriously?)

Fantabulous!

Miami: Sony Ericsson Opening Party (UPDATED)

What does it say about me that I think it's adorable how he hasn't actually figured out this dressing up stuff?

Says I am GONE.

Love the shoes though. Or have I been hanging out too much with my best gay?

Yes, the hair is a bit rough, but we all know he doesn't give a fig.

Benito probably threatened to take away his cookies to make him attend this party.

UPDATE: found more pics!

Ah, Maria Sharapova and her fashion sense.

Don't like her, don't like what she's wearing, but damn she looks good.

Looks REALLY good. Almost can't believe it's her. Are we sure that's her eyes, her jawlines? But those are deffinitely her shoulders.

I like the curls James, why did you shave it off? A little overdressed, but I'll take him.

Serena Williams and her confidence! I'd kill for a sliver of that.

Truth? I think the dress is awesome on her. Suits her to a T.

"Yeah you know I put the D in D-I-V-A."

Venus is the coolest girl on the block!

I don't like the dress, but the hair makes me forgive everything. Doesn't she look fab with that pixie cut? I totally approve.

But is that all? Where's JJ? Ana? Ginge??

Found more pictures at Great Tennis Photos!

JJ's makeup/hair color is verra verra nice. "Opens" her eyes. Approval stamp.

She looks really good with a simple LBD donchathink? I'd burn the shoes though.

Dasco is.. agh. I can't believe I ever made a post of Nando vs Rafa. He's such a skanky manho.

The jeans. The perfectly calculated opening of the shirt. The tucked in shirt. THE SHIRT. The belt. The hair. The shoes.

AGH AGH AGH.

Moving on.

Dress is fine. Agi has a gorgeous bod. The shoes - burn baby burn.

May I ask, what is the point of kitten heels? I never did get it.

Nole's such a goof. The smile erases all his mistakes here, such as the black jacket with the black sneakers, the pants that are too long...

You know what? The smile doesn't erase. Fail.

And I'd actually wear this combination - with different hair and with my complexion, I'd look gorrrrrrge.

I know, I'm so humble. Or delusional. You must get used to it.

What is going on HERE?? Is Coyote Ugly making a sequel?? What's with the random LV bag? Combined with snake pants?? Is this some kinda twist of Cavalli??

I don't even know what's happening with the rest. It's too much for my sensibilities to handle so I'll let you judge for yourselves.
