I thought I would catch this epic Australian Open match after a UK win tonight..but oh well..I'm still going to drink a lot of coffee and catch it on ESPN at 3:30 AM. Two of the best to ever play the game are going head to head again..we may never see it again. I think Federer is the all time best but Nadal is a matchup nightmare for him..I'll take Nadal in 4..maybe 5 sets.
Anyone here Nadal or Federer fans ?

Hell yeah, man. I'm excited and pumped up for it. Federer is 35 years old..Nadal 31 years old..my God..they are both beasts. I'm with you, man..I never thought I'd see this matchup again..at least not in a Major Final. Unreal !! But it's awesome.
I'm torn on who I want to win, but I think I'll lean just a little bit towards Nadal.. Thinking about risking a hundy on Nadal at -120 to be honest, that way I definitely know who I'll be rooting for haha. Anyways, can't wait!
My only worry is that instead of drinking coffee, I have been drinking booze most of the night and continuing to do so. Hope I can make it through the whole match but it could be a tough goal to complete. I will tape it just in case tho

I'm rooting for Federer..because I know he doesn't have much time left before he retires. I'm not saying do it, but if I was betting, my money would be on Nadal..given his all time record vs. Federer but Federer is capable of beating Nadal and you never if Federer is going to pull some Superman stuff or not..lol It's tough.
Sleeping sucks. C'mon, man..what else you going to do on a early early Sunday morning ?
Absolutely, I hear what you're saying man. A tough one to predict and that's what makes it so great. I might bet something small on Nadal, but should probably just enjoy a great match for what it is. Something we will probably never see again! I agree with Federer having the more narrow window tho, so I will be thrilled for him to get another major. Crazy how the main case against federer being the greatest of all time is his record against nadal in finals(who is tied for 2nd In majors I think). Now they meet again. Can't write it up any better
