I've always felt that Gaelic Storm's songs had a much more robust feel when performed live versus the album versions, but the poor recording quality of that live video (done on a cell phone) did make it a bit harder to understand if you weren't familiar with the song already.
Plus, I guess I just kind of felt the lego video was kinda dumb, so I went with the other version.

What about Cori Gauff, the 15 year-old who just defeated (a somewhat washed up) Venus Williams. Is she the next dominant American women in the sport of tennis?

If I was a betting man, at the moment I'd say Anisimova or Kenin. Plus Madison Keys is only 24. A lot of depth

I think Sloane is the youngest american slam holder and she's 26. There's a lot of talent there. Anisimova almost beat Barty in the French semi finals. We'll get there. Mens tennis is where the US needs something badly.

Mens tennis is where the US needs something badly. I don't think Anisimova almost beat Barty. Barty was destroying her in the first set and just collapsed, then routinely beat her 3 and 3 to win the semi. Gauff surprisingly moves on to the 3rd round, i say surprisingly because it seems that any time a young player takes out a star/former star (Venus in this case) they quickly crash out in the following round, so props to her. She has a good chance at getting to the second week where she would play Halep/Vika. You're bang on about the American men though. Fritz just won a 250 last week and is in the 2nd round, and Opelka just beat Wawrinka to move into the 3rd round. Maybe big things to come from those two, both are still young, 21.

I don't think Gauff winning today was too surprising. Rybarikova has won just five matches since last October and three were at one tournament. but i agree with the win and flame, we see it a lot. the us men needed jack sock but he stopped caring about his fitness and tennis in general. Fritz and Opelka will do the carrying. I still do expect some strong stuff from Tiafoe but after that I'm not sure. The US men are so far behind the Europeans.

Nadal/Krygios is semi final worthy match
2 players who Nadal wants to beat and makes it personal are Soderling and Krygios. if Krygios is on his game and is on good behavior Nadal can lose. nadal is my all time favorite player.

I hope its a cracker though.

His matches at times are so bad, they're almost good. He's entertaining for people (not me, fyi) to watch in the sense you don't know which Kyrgios you're going to get, game in and game out. But I find it disappointing he has such a careless attitude far too often, when there are thousands of players who work their butt off and will never get the opportunities he has. Similar to Tomic, although Tomic is a little more discreet about his tanking/don't give a F attitude. If the Kyrgios who gives a sh!t shows up, it could very well be another early exit for the Clay goat.
