So Ill just go out here and try to get better." Jackson said he gets text messages "all day, every day" asking about the Favre situation. "I wont lie and say it dont bother me, but I kind of got used to it," he said. The Vikings have faced constant media coverage of otherwise irrelevant workouts in May and June, so if Favre comes to training camp next month, the Minnesota State campus in Mankato will surely be a zoo. "The Favre-a-palooza," Shiancoe said. "Its crazy. But every year is a circus. And youve got to expect it, man. But you know, he deserves the right to do that. Hes put in a lot of work." Shiancoe has even started envisioning a jump in production, citing Favres history of throwing to tight ends. In fact, few players have complained about all the fuss and defensive end Jared Allen promised there would be no chemistry problems. "Weve got a good locker room," Allen said. "The coaches and staff and organization do a great job of making this a family atmosphere around here, and so thats the way we keep it." Really, no worries? "I honest to God do not worry about it," Allen said. "I dont say I dont care, because obviously you care who your quarterback is, but either way its going to be a good quarterback."

The top-ranked Federer paired with Swiss Davis Cup teammate Yves Allegro to beat Johan Brunstrom of Sweden and Jean-Julien Rojer of the Netherlands Antilles 6-4, 7-6 (4). Federer never dropped his serve and showed off effective volleying skills in his first match inside the new 10,500-seat stadium at the Foro Italico. The 16-time Grand Slam winner is playing his first tournament on clay since winning his first French Open title last year. It was also the first time Federer played doubles this year -- having won the gold medal with Stanislas Wawrinka at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Federer and Allegro will next face sixth-seeded Simon Aspelin of Sweden and Paul Hanley of Australia. In singles, Federer will open against 40th-ranked Ernests Gulbis of Latvia on Tuesday. Gulbis had an easy time in beating 2006 Australian Open runner-up Marcos Baghdatis of Cyprus 6-2, 6-2. The 76th-ranked Giraldo unleashed an arsenal of winners -- 32 to Ferreros nine -- to beat the 2001 Rome winner 6-0, 6-3, requiring only 17 minutes to win the opening set. The 12th-seeded Ferrero entered with an 18-3 record on clay this seeason, but Giraldo came in on a run of his own, having beaten tour veterans Nicolas Lapentti and Jarkko Nieminen in qualifying.

Isner, the top American in the draw following Andy Roddicks withdrawal, hit 20 aces and faced only one break point -- which he lost. It was the six-foot-nine Isners first win on clay this season. The turning point came when a drop shot attempt from Zeballos hit the net to hand Isner his first break of the match and a 6-5 lead in the third set. The American then managed to shake off some nerves and finish Zeballos off on his third match point. Julien Bennetau of France beat 15th-seeded American Sam Querrey 7-6 (6), 3-6, 7-6 (2).
