I hate TennisForum, I don't think I'll follow at that website from now on. So many people on there bash all the players, it takes away the fun of the sport. I do like the fact that they seem to be clued up all the time on entry lists, withdrawals, news etc...but some of the posters are just so :twisted:

Sofia Blog: Friday

2012-11-02
Well it was a long match again today, and in the end the same thing as yesterday - I just couldn't finish it off when I had my chances. But overall I have to say I was happy about this week. Other than my first match I felt like I was playing well, the match with Caroline being the highlight. And I was very impressed by the tournament in general - they did a terrific job and treated us awesome. The crowds were great too. I always felt they were behind me.

And the shops here are really cute too. One day I went for a walk in the city - the hotel is right in the center, so it's close to everything - and right near the hotel was a Lindt shop! I was there almost every day picking up sweets for family and friends. They already had their Christmas stuff out so I really had to force myself not to go all the time! I love Lindt - the red ones are my favorite.

I really hope to be back in Sofia one day :)

I'm leaving tomorrow - well, in a few hours actually! I won't get much sleep, but I have holidays in front of me where I can catch up on sleep. It has been a great week. It was fun having my mom and the rest of my family here as well - and my coach - and just everyone who organized the event. The level was so high.

Before I do some more of your questions I want to say thank you for reading my blog this week - it was a pleasure to do it and as always I have to thank all of you for all the support you give me, not just this week but all year.

I appreciate every single one of you!! I'll talk to you all again soon :)

Dani




Daniela Hantuchova is right about everything.

I had no chance to advance the semi-finals, but I wanted to say goodbye to the season victorious. fled me start duel, too, I adapted the game Hsieh and I was not aggressive enough. defeat that I have to throw as soon as your head. Participation in Sofia are generally positive, it was very well organized tournament and the audience were great. however I regret that I am leaving Bulgaria without a victory.

Everything was on track, but to me it was complicated fatigue fracture. I missed the biggest red clay tournaments, including Roland Garros, which affected my position in the world rankings. deployed I was not and I had a hard tickets. greatest experience for me last season was the London Olympics. I put everything into it, even though I was not healthy and I had natrénované. first two matches against Na Li and Cornet were great, shame osemfinálového lost to Wozniacki. wimbledonskej Olympic Games on the grass were in any case highlights of the year. Appreciate the victory in the Fed Cup barrage Marbella in Spain, thanks to which we will return to of the world," said Hantuchova.

I hate TennisForum, I don't think I'll follow at that website from now on.

When I decided that I had enough time and wanted to share thoughts on Daniela with some true fans of hers, I Googled and the 1st thing it directed me to was Tennis Forum, where I soon discovered the Cocktail Party thread. For 25 seconds or so I was elated. Then, I started to read it. There are a select few that are good Dani fans and wrote intelligently. But the rest of them were (Still are?) imbecilic !%$!)~*%#$. When they weren't slobbering over, or making bad jokes about, swimsuit pictures and that sort of thing, it was almost like they preferred Daniela to lose so they could rip her, Most preferred were matches where she let a potential win slip away, so they could make merry with their choker-and-such commentary. Like I used to say to my daughters when they were little and being naughty...Enough! Thank the Good Lord that the next place I found was the Forum. You all are Dani-to-the-max fans and are so knowledgable...I have learned a lot about her here. Can't wait till next year, and as many years as Daniela plays and the Forum lasts, I'll be happy to be a part of it! :)



Let's Go, Daniela!

Nice words Alex, and so true, the people on this forum are the best tennis fans in the world, not only the way we support Daniela but in general we praise the other players and are honest and true, I'd like to think that Daniela sometimes reads some of our posts!

Really pleased that you got the responses from Daniela in the blog and great questions too!

I have a question for you Alex - does your whole family support Daniela?

Thanks, Eddy. My kids think I'm nuts (for this and a lot of other reasons :!: ). As for my wife, Stormy....I kept my calendars hidden from her for awhile, because I thought she might have believed it was my mid-life crisis! However, she is in the fold. It was Stormy that got Daniela's attention at the end of the doubles match in Miami, which led to an autograph and the infamous photo!



Let's Go, Daniela!

Everyone: If you are in need of a good laugh, check Dani's FB page under her Friday Sofia blog and head to the 14th comment under it. You can't miss it...the thing is longer than War and Peace, the Iliad and the Odyssey put together. It will require an hour and a half to digest it. He gets every Danilelian stereotype in there, plus a shot at coaches of a certain country. The loud noise you may hear soon from Monte Carlo is Daniela reading this and lhao (laughing her :?: :mrgreen: :arrow: off). After you get done laughing along with her, spam him, like I did.



Let's Go, Daniela!

Tennis forum can be a dreadful place, I enjoy it because I do not take it seriously, especially GM since there are quite a few reasonable people. But the Daniela forum is not good at all, whenever she loses they rip her apart and wish her to retire, etc. It is childish for the most part.

Anyways, I hope Danka has a great offseason, gets some rest and starts with Nicolas where they left off in 2008.

ps: oh wow, hahaha, that comment in her blogpost! Hilarious. I guess it was done with good intention, but it borders on creepy. The last line killed me: "this account was used only to post this comment and does not belong to that person".
OMG, and I hadn't seen the profile picture properly! hahahahahahahahaha.

I hardly ever go to tennis forums, maybe about once or twice a year, if that. It tends to be full of wankers, in both senses of the word.

That facebook dude's a mentalist.


Daniela's still got the exhibitions in Singapore and Bogota so hopefully she has some fun there.
