No, Ive still been playing. Currently deciding which I like better out of BHB7 and Genesis Typhoon. The Typhoon feels amazing, but I feel like I have more control with the BHB7 at the same tension. I did get a Wise tension head awhile back too and that was worth every penny.

The brake on my machine (Alpha Blu) is all messed up though. A guest was stringing the the handle assembly came off and I haven't been able to set it back up correctly since. I don't really use it, but if there are any TWMACers that are experts on Alpha machine disc brakes, I can offer beer and tennis string for assistance

Yeah, the lack of sleep thing is a killer, although Rio never slept either (and still doesn't) so I haven't really slept since 2010. I'm convinced that adults only really need 3-4 hours of sleep max. I got 3.75 hours in last night and I feeeeeel Greeeaaattt!

guess i wasn't that good of "friends" with people on FB afterall. after some of their whacky political posts,
all i did is post a youtube link to a 2second simpons video of nelson going HAHA! and now i have less friends today.
weird!

coolblue123 · 11-07-2012, 09:57 AM

Anyone playing on Monday? It's a holiday and it's going to be in the 60's...

On a side note, i just put an extra overwrap on my Ki5x. It feels alot ligher now. Maybe PK grips run smaller?

IMHO you reach a level of a lack of sleep where feeling great is part of the delusion.

I was working on my Masters when we had Bri. Looking back, not sure how I did it. Mostly had starbucks on an IV drip.

your time will come wookie. you just have to wait for the little ones to get out of diapers and in preschool/kindergarten. plus misery loves company so you and dats and JRK can commiserate.

is it really going to snow? i've got mixed practice with topaz tonight. i don't want her shoving anything up my rectum.

rectum? damm near killed him.

Topaz · 11-07-2012, 01:24 PM

I think any snow that is happening...is happening right now, north of us. Mom and sis report snow in PA.

So the weather won't save you TM!!!

Last time I checked, JRK was still playing Halo 4

We need a TWMAC kids mini-meet + food and baby sitters.

Last week - Got pushed from the 4.0/4.5 drill to the next court over which is solid 4.0 with a mix of 3.5 - (I was sneaking in to fill in empty class slots- the instructor is cool- but the class was full last week) man funny how seeing a junky 3.5 ball after seeing clean, well-hit 4.5 ball can throw you off.

Kudos to the Mrs. You and see done good twice over. Congrats to the growing JRK family.

I think jrks newborn is heavier than my 2 month old baby!

Sigh, waiting for racquets to arrive in mail is hard! Cmon post office!

downs_chris · 11-07-2012, 04:43 PM

Dats what did you get?

Hit with auzzie yesterday - he hasn't lost a step. If anything, he's gotten way better. I had trouble keeping up.

datsveryinterestin · 11-07-2012, 04:50 PM

Even though last match I played great and more importantly no wrist pain with blxproopens, I got IG speeds cuz they are so easy for me to use. Maybe less winners but way more control... It would be great to test them against a worthy opponent to see which I feel better using.
Probably blxpros on serve and IG on returns. Har
