Ginepri is 'pissed' about Davis Cup team selection

Robby Ginepri, who had a great run last summer and fall, was angry that he was not selected for the US Davis Cup team. The selected players were instead Andy Roddick, James Blake and the Bryan brothers.

"I was pissed I didn't get chosen," said Ginepri, who's only Davis Cup appearance provided him with a 2-0 winning record in a first-round encounter against Austria in 2004. "They should give me a chance to play."

Coach Patrick McEnroe is defending his decision:

"Robby was 1-2 down in Australia. Not to say that he couldn't come in and win a match against Romania or two matches, but when they're that close, I really have to take into account who is playing better at that particular moment."

Seems like American male players have nothing to do but get cranky lately. I understand all the frustration, and both Ginepri and Roddick are usually beyond pleasant in the press conferences and public appearances. It sure seems like something is nagging on them both lately.
