Discuss.
Does it matter, really?

But you wouldn't have a field day with me because I no longer play people who say "no" instead of "out." I was recently playing with a chick who was calling "wide" and "long" and she was getting them mixed up so she'd go "long! I mean wide!" I had to tell her just to call "out" or I was leaving. It was silly.
One time I had arranged to play tennis with a guy and I was a little late. As I approached the courts from my car I saw him on the side bench wearing a yellow shirt. I just kept on driving.

There's only so much you can put up with.

I laughed.

I don't call out anymore. I signal out calls with a call of vamos followed by a double fist pump.

I don't blame you a bit. Yellow is a color that should only be found in nature.




And tennis balls.
