Boom goes the dynamite...

In honor of Sam Querrey's 11:00 am match against Croatia's Ivo Karlovic (14), I just wanted to give him a nod for using the legendary "Boom goes the dynamite" phrase in his post-match press conference Thursday. Here's him talking about a crucial point against Nicolas Devilder:

"I can't remember if I made a first serve or not, and then I ripped a forehand and then ripped an approach shot that I thought was going long, but it clipped and he just rifled a backhand across the court and hit the tape. I wasn't going to go for it, and then I just last minute, boom goes the dynamite."

Awesome.

In Boom Goes The Dynamite news, the poor kid, Brian Collins who uttered that phrase amidst an on-air breakdown and became an instant youtube legend, actually got a job recently with WXXV-TV in Waco, TX.

Collins bouncing back from that should really be an inspiration to us all. Go get 'em Brian!
