Instead of Jack3d you should just get an 8ball from some dude on the side of the street preferably one with a god given voice for radio.

As far as those Diadoras go thye have been out for a while, but sadly I dont see them coming to the US. the Bird is already selling the 2011 Speed pros and Speed Stars. Of course they dont look any where close to those black Speed Pros and yellow Speed Stars. Speed pros are still my favorite shoe ever, except I wear through them so fast. The new models are a bit heavier than the old ones I had so maybe that extra weight meansd a bit more rubber.

I got some money for Xmas so maybe I go to the bird tommorrow and try them out.

Too bad they never released the Guga colors in US either.

Speed stars look too much like indoor soccer shoes. I do agree that the speed pro colorway is very cool.

Thats probably how they made the speed stars. Put the Speed Pro soles on a Soccer top. They are Kangaroo Leather so it makes perfect sense.

Maybe they look better in person

Sappy, I'm touched by your concern for me. Taser is in good working order, don't worry.

Magma, how is the little one? Not keeping you guys up too much I hope?

it is def a singles frame. you can serve big, but there are better servers. you can volley solidly, but there are other more natural volleyers. but for anything off the ground... the spin, control and precision is INSANE!

she is pretty good about sleeping at nights, but she never lets us get too comfortable cause she'll randomly wakeup @ 4AM!

This may be a result of too much time spent on court with Auzzie. If you start wearing the same UVA shirt repeatedly and your sweat glands go on overdrive... you may be a tennis demo zombie.

Regardless, I'm glad a pencil was used. Please get a vaccine.

Dats, my friend, forgive my reliance on old idiom, but you ARE a pill. With a spoonful of sugar.

Thank goodness we all know that a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down!

i was going to ask several members of twmac to speak at my funeral in case my swiss cheese of the mouth disease proves fatal... but on second thought, i reconsider! i'd rather have crickets chirp! :P

p.s. - my doctor is a whacko. i NEVER go to the doctor, so if i show up, something is wrong. dr. asks what is wrong, and i say... take a look inside my mouth and i'll show you. dr. takes a look and says there isn't anything wrong!
i'm like, do you see the cheese? do you see the blisters? and dr. says.. i see some white stuff and some other stuff but i wouldn't call them blisters.
WTF! give me some dang pillz pal!
looking for the dr phone number on internet and all i found are bad reviews!
you could come in without an arm and dr would say.. "so, what's the problem?"

p.s. - a member of my family goes to a different dr every week and now the doctor suggested that maybe HGH might help wutever ails this family member. i was like, YES, get me some of that HGH! i would KruZh all of you KrappE t3nn1z players if i was jack3d up on HGH! now the dr is stalling writing the script cuz this family member is receiving social security and dr wonders if hgh is really appropriate for helping elder members of society or something. dang it... hgh is on hold. if i show up this spring as 225lbs of lean muscle, bench pressing mazda3s, and doing the ray-ray dance.... i will delete this message!

Dats, you have white spots? On the back of your throat? If so, perhaps go to Hollywood's doc. Tonsillectomy time.

That will be $300. The bill is in the mail.
