Mary asks…

Besides Federer, has any other male players cried after he lost a grand slam final?

I saw Roger Federer crying during the trophy presentation. Has any other male players cried before because of a defeat in a grand slam final? I am curious to know if Roger was the first one to cry after a defeat in a grand slam final.

Johnathan answers:

Federer just wanted a longterm record in the history books.. So he thought if I cry like a baby I can go down in history for being the first tennis player to cry like a girl for finishing second place

David asks…

What is better for the Wii – grand slam tennis or virtua tennis?

I felt like buying a great tennis game but im not sure which one to buy, Grand Slam Tennis or VIrtua Tennis. I hear that the graphics on Virtua Tennis are better but the gameplay on Grand Slam Tennis is better cos its too easy like Virtua Tennis. I would like some feedback from people that have played the games and to choose which one they think is better.

Thanks

Johnathan answers:

Grand slam tennis because graphics are better and its more new

Robert asks…

Are the Ireland grand slam prgrams different?

I want to buy the Wales V Ireland grand slam program off ebay for my dad for christmas. Just noticed some have different welsh players on the cover. Just wandering did some have different players on or are some of the ones on ebay fake? If so who actually was on the cover?

Johnathan answers:

The Welsh Rugby Union would probably be the best ones to ask that. Don’t know that anyone on here will be able to answer it. Not only would they have had to have gone to the game, but they would have had to have seen several programs to know.

A trampoline is constructed out of a durable canvas sheet connected by springs to a metal frame. It is mainly used for recreational purposes but also for exercise and competition. Trampolines for sale come in various shapes, including round and rectangular shapes. With frequent use, these trampolines may present some problems, which can usually be fixed at home.

When There Is Considerable Sun Damage

If there are just small spots on the mat that have sun damage, you can fix the problem by sealing it with duct tape. Large damage will call for an entire replacement of the mat. However, you always have the option of getting trampoline replacement parts. If you want to add more protection to prevent further damage to your trampoline due from the sun or the rain, purchase a covering.

Broken Springs of the Trampoline

Any trampoline spring that has broken off, rusted or worn out should be replaced right away. This is imperative. Springs are crucial in ensuring the safe use of the trampoline and a broken or rusty one could result to accidents. The new springs must be the same length and diameter as the previous ones. To make sure they are the right size, measure the original springs before going to the store.

The Trampoline Budges When Used

In this case you should really consider properly securing your exercise trampoline to the ground with metal anchors. This not only provides more stability and safety when in use, but also prevents the whole unit from toppling over on windy days. There are anchor kits available especially designed for use with trampolines.

Some trampolines, when properly taken care of, can last for a whole year without requiring any repair or replacements. Thus, once you’ve revamped your old trampoline, you should take steps to maintain the unit while it’s still in good working condition.
