I think the 100 YO grease will drastically improve my net game.

Official plans are to retire from DOS no later than 12/31/11 (maybe sooner) and return to the Promised (Grace)Land. You, Sup and all are invited to visit our humble abode and eat all the 100-year-old grease burgers you can handle, with the best BBQ in the world for dessert. Should start planning that visit to coincide with the big indoor tournament held at the Racquet Club every February, with both men and women draws.

Nah, knee and everything else is just fine. All this talk lately about which barbed wire works best on which fence post just hasn't touched this old son of a farmer. Like to stick with a stick and roll with a wire that feel good when ball meets wire, so all this technical BS takes me to Yawn City. LOL.

Been playing with the old folks at FRC, where it's usually toasty and full of kids like you, good buddy. Trying to hang on to my dwindling skillz as long as I can.

my sweet green yonex shoes are somehow in stock in just my size at another tennis place. i want to get them, but i have about 4 pairs of nikes that i haven't even used yet. dang!

Yeah, I gots some new duds, alright, but can't show you until I gets a pair those yellow Res 3s to match your green Yonexxesxx. Forget the Nikes - Sup's in Florida and you don't have to suck up to us homies, dude.

Know what we used to call players in Memphis who use 5/8 grips? MEN.

Know what we used to call players in Memphis who use 3/8 grips? WOMEN.

In your honor, A-man. I can see you shooting a few of these curls.

And if you are even close to a beach with wahines like this and all you're thinking about is a tennis racquet, we need to have a long, long talk when you get back.

We shall see what happens. I will consume one of those burgers some time in 2012 though. It will be my way of shwoing how much full of crap these people are thinking the Mayans predicted the end of the world. They never said that was the end of the world they just got tired of wrinting dates down 2k years in the future.

Now Jehovahs witnesses have predicted the world was going to end like 3 or 4 times now. Maybe they will get it right one of these days.

Whats the deal with the tournament? How big is it? Will somebody cool be there?

Tournament usually draws pretty well. This year's lineup looks really strong:

Nice club, too, except it's a bit high falutin' for me. My club had more blue-color players like me; this one attracts the upper crust, or at least the ones who don't belong to country clubs.

Good place to watch tennis and get out of the February weather.

JRstriker12 · 02-11-2011, 01:42 PM

Awesome! Just got a buyer for one PDR.

hollywood9826 · 02-12-2011, 04:45 AM

^^^^^

Sweet man, but you shouldnt have a problem selling those as long as the price is fair. I think they are still well sought after by people.

Now my TFs on the other hand I would have trouble giving them away. Thank goodness I actually like them.

Get the wrist healed! And don't knock my S2! That frame got me through junior year of high school.

Xis, I can't help it... No matter what beach and surroundings, I'm always taking practice swings in my head

LOL! Don't plan on it.

I'm waiting for his final decision. I answered a question, but haven't heard back.

JRstriker12 · 02-12-2011, 10:34 AM

BTW - lost a close one last night. 3-6, 7-5 (TB 5-10). I need to get my swagger back.

sapient007 · 02-12-2011, 06:05 PM

hwood.. check this out.. what pure athleticism.. i'm impressed.. i now see what you mean about wrestling.

tennismonkey · 02-12-2011, 06:29 PM

i lol'd at that wrasslin video. but then i felt really bad for the two guys who were about to win until the other team pulled some illegal shennanigans and hypnotized them with their skills learned from cobras. that shiz just ain't right.

hollywood9826 · 02-13-2011, 03:24 PM

I saw that clip last week. Im not quite sure poeple think its so funny. Is it the announcers reaction?

These guys are hack pro wrestlers. I mean come on hypnotizing someone? Are they serious.

But we can go see those guys in Philly on March 12 at 730 pm. front row tickets are 30 bucks.

NiteFly · 02-13-2011, 04:07 PM

Hola TWMACers... been off the boards for awhile. Damn you Dodd Frank Act! Have I missed anything important? Any meets soon????

tennismonkey · 02-13-2011, 04:57 PM

datsveryinterestin · 02-13-2011, 07:02 PM

my wrist is messed up too! add that to my shoulder injury.. and i might as well play left handed.
hopefully 48hours and ibuprofen will fix it! cuz i hope to be playing on clay courts and getting some clinics in soon!

HWOOD.. prior to this wkd, i totally would rock that show for $30.. however knowing that how there is this now this hypnotize move.. i dunnoo.. what happens if he somehow mis executes that move and hypnotize me.. being a fan of such macho sport, i don't know how i'd face any of you if i were caught on this reverse donkey on to another man's crotch/abd while doing the egyptian snake.. woot.. go egypt.. and their ppl... freedom..

p.s. the secret buffet place was kennedy center's sunday brunch.. it rocked. i made 5 runs to the desert isle followed by 10 runs to the toilet. never called dats back.. sry dats, i passed out after getting home at 2pm. yum..
