A strained butt muscle

The Davis Cup semifinals between the United States and Spain ended in a blowout ass kicking for Andy Roddick by Rafael Nadal. You can read up on the story here but the thing that jumped out to my attention is this passage:
Nadal said after the match he nearly didn’t play because an MRI scan Saturday showed a strained buttock muscle.
If Nadal had to withdraw due to injury, how do you think he would have liked to be known as the guy who bailed due to a strained butt muscle!?

Now, that sounds funny!

By the way, in the article Roddick says that Nadal is the best clay court player and he (Roddick) isn't. I think Roddick would do better to realize that he is just a downward spiraling player...a one-shot pony...a has-been. Unless he is able to refocus like Agassi did, he should just hurry and get married so he can live off his earnings or his hot-model wife's!

Oh well!
