Blogging Advisory

Greetings, everyone. Sorry for the radio silence on a day marked by plenty of newsworthy items. I was out of the office since early this morning, visiting with a well-known, controversial figure in the media and political arenas. I'll have a red meat post up on that excursion tomorrow. Please use this post for your discussion of this evening's events in Cincinnati and Toronto, and keep the conversation going here tomorrow until I post on the news now pouring out of the aforementioned cities. I see it was a tough day for Melanie Oudin, of whom much will be expected in the upcoming U.S. Open. Keep the faith, Melanie.- Pete
