Hey Downs, it's amazing how much better tennis you can play when you're not messing around with your equipment right??? (That's what she said!!! )

a lil modest, P-man... you created excalibur, bestowed it upon Downs, and now Downs is unstoppable (besides an extremely lengthy 1 match losing streak that happened once )

Downs,

You owe me beer.

I unfortunately have given up on my drinking while playing tennis (and drunk while playing tennis) days. That surprisingly increased my winning percentage from 0%. Who would of "thunk" it.

That is all. Good luck Downs.

Hahaha! You're too much Auzzie! He already had his Excalibur! The only thing was - since it wasn't polished, shiny, and sharp he didn't care if it was cut in half or thrown to the wayside. So a little bit of elbow grease and TLC - he found out it wasn't so bad after all...lol

Paulman,

Are you asian? I have been telling the asian and asian lite players to stop the demos and just stick to one racquet. Upon def ears. Then I tried to get them drunk and tell them, but the asian "glow" works to quickly for reason to set.

So if you are asian, that must of been the trick. Now if we can only find a fellow ukrainian TWMAC member.

P.S. To quote my friend Moz (and Erasmus)...."In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king"...

I don't know nothing about the one eyed man, but not everyone can be as cool as me and have awesome old school T Fight 325 that weigh 13oz that they never use.

I used to demo a little bit here and there, but it never got serious. I guess I just got luck and found one that I liked and stocked up.

Please don't call me asian.

Rumack: I won't deceive you, Mr. Striker. We're running out of time.
Ted Striker: Surely there must be something you can do.
Rumack: I'm doing everything I can... and stop calling me Shirley!

cute kid JRK. i don't know what language she's speaking but i'd like her to help me put together some furniture from ikea. the instructions are a bit cryptic.

sapient007 is one of the worst poker players i have ever had the misfortune to play. i think we should have another poker night with the guys though. minus the poker. and minus the chinese speaking baby girl.

Dats how long you stayin bro? I gotta work saturday till noon, and will probably get stuck helping either my mom or frind move some stuff after. Sunday I gotta help my other friend use a jack hammer to destroy some riocks in his yard so we can build a wiffle ball filed.

We got courts around with lights so if you want to get some night action going we can.
