Sup...Sup..... you know I'd only come in third in a TWMAC lunch buffet.

Doesn't look like the 5th set it too interesting so far. Gonzo is pounding aces and Soderling is in a serious hole.

You are right. Third in a lunch buffet... FIRST in a breakfast buffet.. especially with waffles.

Um,.... the whole match is full of drama. Very entertaining. No camera shot of spectators asleep in the stands.

ALICE,

What's the plan today? Call me. This match has pushed things back a bit. I have a 2pm private lesson to give.

TFM, SAPPY, JRS.. lunch plans today?

hahahaha yea the ladies were a trip and fun to hit w/ but I'll admit it was interesting a trying to return a sub-50mph forehand w/out accidentally pegging someone, lord knows I would have recieved quite the god-smack had I done that!

Was Amy one of the ladies in the clinic? I recall meeting an Amy last night and if memory serves me correctly she and Gretta were fun to hit with... also you sure it was me she was talking about? I think w/ the exception of 5 frameshots don't think I was doing much ball crushing

TFM, props on the FML example! my gf has family comming into town this weekend and I'm trying to think of a creative way to duck out for an hour or two to go hit some balls... alas I'm sure she'll see right through anything I come up w/ and give me crap about prefering tennis over family... FML

JRprostaf -- i'll be out of town this weekend, but next week - pick a night. i'll come up to fredneck for a hit. i think i've met all the TWMAC members but you. unless we have more lurkers that i don't know about.

suptastic -- i'm helping a friend run network cables in the server room. yee haw. i hope to get back in time somewhere to watch fed/del potro. not sure what wookie and sapient are up to.

sapient007 · 06-05-2009, 06:26 AM

sod is about 3-4 drop shots in getting to gonzo. this match is looking closer than what the score suggests.

Spoke too soon. Soderling is breaking back. FYI - I'm listening to Roland Garros Radio.

Okay - Waffle champ for real. LOL!

As long as it looks like Shiloh will be rained out, I'm up for meeting for lunch. Rock Bottom's fine. If it gets sunny (unlikely), plans may change.

WTF? - No draw up on tennis link yet.......

Update:

Spoke with JRK, who got home safe and sound around 1-2 am. His better half decided to call everyone but him, asking where he was...

Can we say : "IT's a TRAP".

A call like that usually means one thing.. Miller Lite "Man Law" look up.

Man Law: When girlfriend of buddy calls asking where he is ...one should request to hang up and call her back.. then immediately find buddy .. ask how to respond.

Sup followed that rule.

P.S. TheJRK.. I called the guys from last night to ask where you were. So you may want to laugh about it with them next time you see them at the club.

sapient007 · 06-05-2009, 06:32 AM

i'm watching abc. guess the game is not live as it's only 3-2. looks close tho

tfm1973 · 06-05-2009, 06:36 AM

dunzo. it's ovah.

Sup2Dresq · 06-05-2009, 06:48 AM

NBC's delayed match play will not do it for me today. Must see it live!

They are talking to the players in the tunnel. Del Potro sounds like a gentle giant.

JRstriker12 · 06-05-2009, 06:55 AM

Shiloh - Looks like there's only 8 players playing 3.5 Men's singles. One is also playing 3.0 singles - hope I meet that dude.

Topaz, I need lessons in your TennisLink tracking skillz.

alice301 · 06-05-2009, 06:58 AM

Next Wed is fine.

No worries about falling asleep. I almost fell asleep during a LIVE WTA match in Miami. I even bet with Dats to keep it interesting. Instead I almost fell over the side of the bleachers.

Ah, ha. Just saw what Gonzo wore today. Explains a lot.

An easy draw. Can the Wookie repeat?

I'm curious to see how you do JRS. "Break a leg"

ha! i'll admit I've fallen victim to that aswell... thats why I like going to the tournaments and having the ability to get up at the changeovers and walk the grounds a bit.

Alot of people were predicting this for quite some time. I mean he wins so much he has alot of miles on him. And he isnt exactly light on his feet. Hopefully he recovers in time for wimby. But I never saw him plying into his 30's with that style. Granted he has changed it up quite a bit, but hes still rough on his joints.
