Isner vs. Mahut. You guys should check this out. The game is going over 9 hours now. One dude almost has triple digit aces. I don't know how these fuckers are still standing. This last set has over 100 games played!

Well, this match has been split over 2 days. But still, they've played 6 hours of tennis today. Nuts.

Fifth set tied at 58-58. They had to stop for a bathroom break and may have to be postponed until tomorrow due to darkness.

God damn what a good day for sports this has been.

59-58 and Isner looks totally gone even though he's got advantage. If he can break it'll be over.

Isner is 6'9"?

Even worse, Isner was scheduled to play in the first round of the Wimbledon Men's Doubles today at 7 am ET. I wonder if they had to forfeit or if they are pushing that match back, too.

So when do you think court #18 has seen this kind of attention?

Come on, Isner! Break him!

98 aces for Mahut now.

Never. This is a total Centre Court Crowd.

I think Isner and Mahut have rigged this thing. The tennis match that never ends

By the way, Drifter. Thanks for pointing this out to us. I probably wouldn't have known about it until it was over.

I wonder if they are burning through Wimbledon's supply of tennis balls.
