why did he delete me on facebook

ok theres this guy that i play tennis with and at 1st he wuz really nice te me nd all. so i added him on facebook and he accepted like 2 minutes later. and then ikept beating him at tennis and he deleted me but he is still nice to me and all so im thinking maybe he deleted me by mistake r something. shud i add him again. or should i approach him about it or shud i just leave it. im so confused and i dont understand why he wud do this its so immature just cuz i bet him at a GAME he deletes me i mean hes like 15 for gods sake!! please answer

This is a personal question and cannot be backed up with facts, only opinions so there’s no official answer

However, In my opinion, Always loose to keep him happy

I understand you are upset about this, my guess is that he got angry/upset beacause you beated him in the game. Maybe as you said it was an mistake. If I where you i would try and add him again ( maybe it was just temporarly ) and see if he accepts. If not you might wanna ask him why he does not add you. There can be hundreds of reasons why he deleted you but only he knows the answer hopes this helps

Just casually talk to him next time and just bring up how he deleted you and laugh. then he might talk back and say why

I guess it hurts men’s egos to lose to a girl.

hm, yeah…
He could be just annoyed that you beat him at tennis because all guys get annoyed if girls (you are a girl right?) beat them at something and i suppose he’s probably just embarrassed about it.
But if its really starting to get on your nerves that he’s nice to you yet you’re not friends on facebook then you should like take a picture or something or just be casually taking pictures and say ‘ooh i’ll tag you in this!’ see if he replies with anything. If he doesnt then the next time you see him mention the picture and say that for some reason you couldn’t tag you in it! If he still doesnt own up to it and just plays along with it and acts suprised and says he doesnt know why its not working, then add him on facebook and see if he accepts… If he doesnt explain to him at tennis that the reason it wouldnt let you tag him was because you’re not friends with him on facebook, see what his answer is for that;)
You could also do the same thing but tagging him in a status etc.
Hope that helps;D

What good sites are there that allow you to online bet on sports

I am looking for the best sites to online bet on sports e.g. football, tennis and so on. Is there any sites that allow online sports betting. Also is there any sites that offer promotional bonus codes for these sites. I tried looking at a few but did not find any good ones for betting. I would appreciate any help, thank you.

• Try centsports.com
  You start off with a dime and work yourself up
• I find http://www.Unibet.com is the best as they stream lots of the sports live. 888 sport, paddy power, and gamebookers are also good. http://www.Sportsride.com and http://sosopoker.com are good for the sports betting bonus codes nad also casino and poker bonus codes.
• You dont need promotional codes unless its said so, all the sites have promos, like 20$ when you deposit. You can find reviews of online bookmakers here http://www.gamblingsafe.net/online-bookmaker-reviews.html
  Bet365 is one of the worlds biggest if not the biggest…
• You can check this optimal guide to bet online bookmakers and betting exchanges

  Over 30 of them

• Hello, you will find certified independent reviews of the best sites for sports betting at http://www.Sportsbook-Ratings.net Some offer bonus codes, but all of them are very reputable and PAY with you win! That is the key. Many sites offer you great sounding bonus packages, but never intend to actually pay you if you win.
• In my opinion the best are bodog and betonline. Since Bodog will leave the US market in december I probably choose betonline. I have reviews of the best sport sites here

I placed a bet on a tennis player in a match but my player retired, do i get my money back for the bet

No, it isn’t Murray’s fault that Djokovic either ran out of gas or got injured and retired at 3-0 in the second set.

If you go to the horse races and your horse pulls up lame, do you think the track would refund your bet? I have a feeling you lost the money. Bad luck.

However, Djokovic has a full week to recover from this, so I would still believe that he has a good shot at winning the US Open. Just don’t bet your car or your house on him, OK?

EDIT: Found out that Novak has a shoulder injury. That might be “fixable” in a week, or he could be out for a few months. Don’t know the details yet.

I see another Answerer who says you *can* get a refund with some bookies, so maybe I shouldn’t have responded to a question about betting, when tennis is more of what I know about. Guess we learn something new every day

I dont think so, If the player you put the bet on, retires, then he is the loser – i dont think you will get your money back, sometimes om william hill, they offer refunds if a horse doesn’t run…

But i dont think it is the same in tennis.

Depends which company you bet with. I bet with WilliamHill and Bet365 and when a retirement occurs I get the money back.

i dont think so

How I am I supposed to tell my stubborn dad I don’t want to join tennis club

I was in the Tennis Club and Tennis Varsity for the past 2 school years. But lately my coach has been really annoying and I hate him now. So, I asked him if I can still join the varsity without joining the club (to decrease time with him) but he said the club is priority to be able to join the varsity. I don’t know if he said that just to get money out of me (club and varsity both cost money) or it’s the truth, but either or, I really don’t want to be in the same club this school year. It’s because I’m gonna be learning the same thing anyways, so why waste the money (I can use the money for other things)? Plus, I bet my coach is going to make me president of the club, which is really great, but a bad thing if it’s in his club because he’s going to order you around and then sometimes he’ll get mad for no reason… I also want to focus on my studies, and not sports, this school year. Don’t get me wrong but I love tennis but how am I suppose to tell my stubborn dad (he plays the same sport and the idea of me playing tennis came from him) that I don’t want to be in the same club? I don’t want him getting the wrong idea and I also don’t want to hurt his feelings. I want him to know that I’ll gladly join the varsity only if club wasn’t a priority. What am I suppose to do? Please help. I want your honest opinions. One more thing, when it comes to decisions, he always want it his way, I want to tell him, respectively, that this time, I want it my way…

• Tell him it is your life and that you aren’t cut out for this. You have no desire to do it.
• I quit soccer after my 9th grade year because of my coach and it was the largest regret i have of my life. But if your Truly willing to do it, i’ve found that being straight forward is the best way to do it. If he argues just say dad, your supposed to support me, i understand your looking out for my best interest and for fun but i just dont want to deal with my coach as much.

  Just tell him the truth and thats all you can do.

  Tennis is great because it takes alot of school stress away because your doing something, and as i said if you like the sport then you may regret it later. But honesty is the best thing to always have.

Novak Djokovic level of play, what is the point of watching the US Open

How long will Djokovic be able to keep up this level of play. This has been for me (a Nadal fan) the most sickening, frustrating, awful year of tennis. It does not help that I feel Djoker has the least class of any of the top ten players on tour. He is the only male player I do not like. I hate how he is so predictable with what he will do. It ALWAYS goes to 4-4 first set, then he wins the final two games, and blows away the second set. He ALWAYS serves first, every set! I hate it. So much. When will he dip in play. Idc if he remains number one, I just want him to lose. Is there any point in watching the US Open? He’s going to win, I’ll bet my car.

OMG, I just wrote the same exact question!!!!!! I’m a Rafa fan, too but I don’t want him to lose for Rafa’s sake, I just want to see more players having confidence against him and being able to play better vs him. Nadal hasn’t had such a bad year, 5 masters finals before Rogers Cup, 2 GS Finals, and Barca but Djokovic has been killing him. I like him and his personality, but sometimes he can be annoying in a way. I just want other players to step up, and Rafa could really do that with his confidence. Roger has a great chance at Cincy provided he gets past JMDP, and I think he could be able to beat Djokovic. Rafa has an easy draw, too, so hopefully he bounces back:) And I agree with the whole 6-4 7-5 thing in the 1st set. Always happens. And he always wins because he’s 101-1 when winning the first set since last year. Duh. It sucks yeah, and I really see no point now in watching tennis like you said, unless something happens that brings life into the other players. They just need confidence. As a Nadal fan, I fully believe Rafa has a better chance vs Novak on HC, and his backhand is better there. It’s just the whole confidence issues. I think Rafa will bounce back though:) But If Djokovic wins Cincy,too. I’m done for the year. No point

As the saying goes: “Past performance is no guarantee of future success.”

Sure, Djokovic is the favorite at the moment. But actually putting it all together on the court is what people pay money to see. As Yogi Berra said: “It ain’t over ’til it’s over.”

We used to get tired of seeing Borg win every time he played [uh-oh, dating myself], and then, almost suddenly, he quit. Injuries happen. Guys play brilliantly and upset players you’d never expect them to. You never really know when big changes will come along.

The point of watching would be to see great tennis and to see who wins. Djokovic has won 1 grand slam this year out of 3. That doesn’t sound like he’s a slam dunk to win the US Open.

1. Yes Novak used to be quite arrogant but for the past 2 years or so he has been nothing but class. Gracious in winning and defeat, as hard as it is to remember what he’s like when he loses because he hasn’t been doing much of it lately =-).
2. Lol. A Rafa fan calling another player predictable. As much as i like Rafa as a person and a player, he is much more predictable than Novak is. His game his basically defend until he gets the chance to hit a big forehand down the line or crosscourt.
3. So what if he always serves first? He has that much confidence in his serve when he wins the coin toss that of course he is going to choose to serve first. And if that is the case then other players must always choose to receive against him right?
4. Nadal isn’t having a bad year at all. He can and has beat everyone else, except Djokovic. Now you know how Djokovic fans felt every time Nadal beat him. Can you believe that Nadal used to lead their H2H 14-4?
5. Of course you should watch. Even though Novak is the heavy favourite, nothing is set in stone. Maybe Nadal can repeat and salvage whats left of his “sickening, frustrating, awful” year..lol? Or maybe Federer can prove all the doubters wrong? Just don’t bet your car..

OMG I knowww!!! I totally agree with you. I am sick of him winning every single tournament he plays. I am also extremely annoyed with his on court behavior- screaming and shouting really loud whenever things go his way and he is really arrogant. It’s so hard to watch. And just to see im all happy on facebook & twitter all the time and having fun makes it even worse(lol, weird I know…).

He screwed Rafa’s head big time and I wonder how long will it take Rafa to recover from all of this, it’s really too much for anyone to handle.
I am also a Rafa fan and I am really disappointed with this year. Overall it’s a really great year if you look at it I mean he has reached 8 finals(all in very important tournaments) and I’m sure he would have won more titles if it hadn’t been for Novak…It was really frustrating to watch him lose 5 times in 5 finals :’(
I cannot remember I was ever THIS frustrated about tennis since I started watching it. I obviously still have a lot of hope and expectations, but none of them will come true if Novak keeps playing like this.

I really have high hopes for 2012, but I am definitely worried. If Novak wins the AO he will gain momentum again and that’s the last thing that I want. I don’t care anymore about the No.1 spot, I just want rafa to be happy & healthy and to win Slams(the French Open, Wimbledon and the Olympics are my priorities, I think you agree).
So fingers crossed, I hope 2012 will be a good year. If the same thing happens next year I will stop watching mens tennis.

he looks quite fit , so i hope it lasts for long

All of you idiots saying aww poor Rafa being beaten everytime by Djokovic. THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT NADAL IS DOING TO FEDERER FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS!
You guys can’t even take it for less than a year. Nadal even won a friggin Grand Slam title this year ( Thank Fed for taking Djokovic out
Geez.

I’m enjoying every second of it. I love Nole more than anything and it’s so nice to see him win all the time. I have a lot of belief in him and I know he will win the US Open. Ajde Noleee!

Do you think a year is long enough to make your dog loose weight

Well in March I saw my vet and he told me that both of my dogs had to loose weight, I told him that I wasn’t really able to take them out for walks since I got hurt at work and had Plantar Fasciitis, he said I bet that hurts. I told him yup, well he then told me I had a year to get the weight off my dogs because of my foot. My Lab had to loose at least 2 pounds because she can’t be over 60 pounds her body can’t carry the weight. And then my Mix had to loose 3.5 pounds because he has hip displysa and a knee that keeps popping in and out. The Vet said my mix’s whole life he can’t be over 55 pounds at all. And the reason why he had me have my mix loose weight is because he said that way when he gets old he has a little bit of weight to gain. So do you think it is enough time to get dogs to loose weight in a year. My husband and I are very active in the summer, when my foot is better I am going to be playing Tennis, playing base ball, walking 1 hour to 3 hours every day and going back to work. My husband will be playing tennis, base ball, riding his bike and roller blading with me.
I am not a bike person but a good half hour is good for me lol.
Some info the base ball is only my husband, the dogs and I. The dogs love to go after the balls but the ones they don’t get I go get and bring them back. We love the base ball fields.
We also play tennis with the dogs on the court, they get the balls I send out in left field lol. Some info I have been trying to walk and I can only walk 3/4 of a block right now but my dogs are loosing weight since the vet also told me to cut their food down by a half a cup. And my husband has been running them with the bike. I am trying to get myself up for roller blades so my dogs will have another way to get their engery out. Thanks for the answers:D
My lab plays fetch and Frisbee and comes back with both of them. Training a dog to fetch for me is the easiest thing to do. My mix loves to play fetch just he likes to chew on the ball on the way back to me lol. But he is learning Frisbee. I do have several things to throw balls with but my mix loves to chew up tennis balls, so we use soft balls. I walk every day for 3/4 of a block I am every 3 to 4 day adding a 1/4 of a block to my walk so I can be back to what I was

I think a year is definitely plenty of time. As for food, make sure you’re feeding them the best stuff you can afford, as you can usually feed them a bit less volume of food if the food you give them is full of more nutrients than fillers. You could hire a dogwalker to do regular walks every day? I’m sure some neighbourhood kid would be happy to do it for cheap, and this would get the dogs doing very regular exercise (instead of kind of random exercise depending on the season, your schedule and your foot.) If you can train them to fetch all the time then that’s great for getting them running without having to move around much yourself, especially if you buy a chuckit and take the dogs out to a big field to throw the ball extra far. I haven’t yet managed to get my dog to come back with the ball myself but I’m hoping it will happen soon…

I have never known it to take an entire year to get a dog down to normal weight.

The overweight dogs I have fostered have lost a significant amount of weight in weeks or months. One foster dog I had should have been about 30 lbs, but weighted 63 pounds when she came to me. She lost 23 pounds in just three months, without any extreme exercise.

Its more about what you feed them, and since they cant reach the food, dieting is relatively easy for a dog.

Two pounds on a 60 pound dog is a very small percentage. If the dog is getting the correct amount of food, it should be gone in a week or two.

Any ideas on how to break a gambling habit

I bet constantly online on betting websites on any sport football, tennis, rugby anything and i hardly ever win but i cant stop doing it. I have self included myself before and put deposit limits but i always find a way to get my bet on and im always left with no money because i waste it. I know its a mugs game yet i cant stop doing it,??i have on self control lol .any ideas

• well if its only online betting you could block all your betting sites you possibly know and have a friend or relative change the password so you cant use those sites anymore.

  hopes this helps

• Blocking the sites and having a friend change the password so you don’t know it are good ideas, but they do NOT address the real problem you have.

  You need serious help for a serious problem. You obviously have not even come close to hitting rock bottom. Your tone would be much different if you had.

  You’ve got 2 choices: You can either take REAL, concrete steps to get yourself REAL help, or just keep playing this game of making it harder to wager when you know deep down that you’ll find a way to gamble anyway. If you don’t get yourself REAL help, you will very soon see a very deep darkness come over your life. I’ve been there and it’s a very lonely and horrifying place to be. You’ll wish you were dead, and you won’t know how to get yourself out of the hole you’ve dug for yourself. You’re life as you currently know it will be over.

  So what should you do? Get to a gambler’s anonymous group. Search on-line for their website. Most important is to speak with family and friends about this problem. If you’re not ready to admit your problem to your family and friends, then you’ve got tough times ahead of you.

• Go to Gambler’s Anonymous & say “My name is __________ & I have a gambling problem.”
• I know how you feel. The best thing to do is to try and weign yourself off it gradually. Think positive! I know you probably dont want to go this route but check out a site that got me out of a few holes. www.moneybethome.com
• I’ll say you should not visit gambling sites, it is one way to break your gambling interest. Try to turn your interest of some other things that you think it’s not boring for you. Like for example make friends, socialize to other people, shopping and many other physical activities.

Tennis Question Professional

I’m having a match with an college friend and there’s pride involved I have a questioner; Detailed answer easy 10 points- 1. Are there still benefits to training hard this late if my match is in two weeks- 2. Whats the best tactic against an opponent with a weak ankle? 3. Are 4 Alleve’s my best bet as an anti-inflammatory? My arm is tortured at this point. I think tennis has somehow destroyed my deltoids. Now they are underdeveloped, and my whole arm is subject to tightness and inflammation. 4. What do you think of pre-workout products like Hemo Rage for use in tennis?

yes, practice moving ur opponent from one end to the other especially with a weak ankle it’ll be hard to get from one side to the other, and u can practice slices, as well as lobing ur opponent and keeping the ball in

never had that happen to me and dont know wat hemo rage is

good luck

Yes no problem, you can make the opponent run one side to another and either he will hit an error or he will let your shot be a winner…Try slices, Drop Shots and Lobs..
When your opponent is way at the baseline hit a drop shot, he will have a problem hitting it and if he hits it, you can hit a lob or a winner

if you could decribe your skills and your game a little bit, we could help you a lot more, because sure we can give you tips and a good match tacic, but you are probably going to loose that match with that tactic because it’s not made for your game.
And yes practice always helps. Even the day before the match.

Why does my mom always compare me to my boyfriend

For starters, my boyfriend and I are both sophomores, but at different high schools. I’ve known my boyfriend for some time now. He and I sometimes seem like total opposites. He plays basketball, football, and runs track.
I am self conscience because of this health issue i have:( and i don’t do sports i tried tennis and failed, so i’m in band now and i like it. My moms always like i wish my child did sports i love to go to games, and she’s always at my boyfriends game when she is free. He is also like super duper skinny, i am not humongous but hey i’m a curvy girl with meat on her bones. She’s is constantly comparing our sizes. (like oh i bet if yu even lie your head on his chest he’d crack) And he has a lot of problems with his family and living situation, and lately i haven’t had so many but in the past i have. And if i appear to be not happy for any reason she rants and says what do you have to worry about you have no problems at all, your boyfriend on the other hand he does i don’t want to hear anything from you. It really bothers, and nowadays it is impossible to talk to her:( and i don’t want to tell my bf either. why does she do this what can i do about it? IT REALLY BOTHERS ME IT’S LIKE I CAN’T BE BETTER THAN MY BF, HELP:(???

• The only way you will for sure know why is to talk to her about her.
• u need to talk to her , kids should always come first there is absolutly no reason for her to compare you to her b f …
• first of all, your mom needs to mature a bit more ( no offense) no parent should ever harassse rude things to their child, ever!
  secondly, its totally not you, like she may want certain things in a daughter that youre not doing but she should be rooting you on and being supportive no matter what. your boyfriend is well a boy and boys usually play sports and stuff. playing in band is really a skill that most people dont have and if youy can play then you must be better than your bf at something. i know how you feel about the weight thing, i have issues with that too but your mom making fun of you is harrassment and mental and emotional abuse. i highly doubt that you laying your head on his chest would not crack it, your mom is on crack. anywaysss, dont worry, i think you should just ignore your mom and know who you are and know that you are perfect just the way you are and you have a right to do whatever you want so tell her to go fly a kite. i hope things workout and i also think you should let your bf know whats going on.

  ps. thats wierd that your mom goes to his games -.-

Tennis section, let’s bet on answering points

Last week I got a little short of hitting the 300′s and I am in the 140′s as of now… bet on the number of points I will have gathered via answers. I wanted a kind of "price is right" thing and that’s the best I came up with. It will be amusing mostly because no one can tell how many points I will get – I cannot tell or try to aim for it myself since I don’t know if and how many BA’s I will get. So, let’s start. Best answer goes to the nearest number.
I’ll try to get as much as I can… but note that I can answer on any section, not only here.
I was saying "bet on the number of POINTS" I will gather through answering… number of answers do not matter.
I’m already at 327 points as I write this added detail post. LOL It would be nice to hit the 500′s. I’m racing like hell to pile up BA’s and points… I’ll soon enough be on that top ten scoreboard!

• Ohhhhhhh. Just answers or “Best answers”?

  Uhmm …. lets see. Logged in 7 days. 140-7=133.

  I’ll assume you got 8 Best Answers because you still have your TC Badge. 133-80 = 53.

  I think you voted for yourself 3 times. 53-3 = 50.

  So I think you answered 25 questions. 25*2 = 50.

  **** Thanks for making me do math during the summer -.-

  EDIT – I hate getting math wrong. Im bad @ word problems XD Lolllllllll

  Uhmmmm …. I’ll still assume you get 8 BA’s. Let’s go with … 348 points through answering. I had bout 40 more last week so I’m assuming you get about as much as me.

  EDIT – Changing my answer again. 348+7=355. 5 Votes for yourself. 360 points this week (:

• 296 pts

  :):)

• Mexi you made the question look so complicated for me!

  Is all we have to do guess how many points you will get this week and that’s it?
  Well a lot more questions are being asked here this week so I think you will end the week with 405 points!

  Best of luck!

• umm, you probably gonna get a lot more than last week cuz there are much more to answer now, 392 maybe :S
