Live From North Carolina

They clean up well, don't they? Bob Bryan (or is that Mike?), Andy Roddick, James Blake, Mike Bryan (or is that Bob?), and captain Patrick McEnroe will take another step to defend the Cup against France in the Davis Cup quarterfinals in Winston-Salem this weekend. I was looking forward to the blockbuster match-ups Richard Gasquet and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, but alas, both are out with injury. Andy will play Michael Llodra and James will take on Paul-Henri Mathieu in tomorrow's singles rubbers.

Still, I'm happy to be here and will be loudly cheering for our boys.
