MEMORIES….The most remarkable phrase in print Friday was Brigadier General Mark Scheid’s recollection about Donald Rumsfeld’s response when Scheid said they ought to think about doing some postwar planning in Iraq: “I remember the secretary of defense saying that he would fire the next person that said that.”

But there’s lots of tennis on today and a pretty good football game later this evening, so that’s probably about it for today’s blogging. Who do you think will face Federer in tomorrow’s final?
