Anyone want to skip out of work early and hit with the BEAST (Auzzie)???

want to...yes

can i...probably not...

bring the protector for auzzie...he's been drooling over that frame ever since he saw it...

[Topaz]

Auzzie, it is blacked out with two yellow tape strips. I haven't kept up with the thread enough to know what it might be but it is light...too light IMO. That coupled with the full poly job = me no likey.

Anybody get bumped yet? I haven't checked yet...stuck at the garage.

Tomorrow is a possibility for me but there is 90% chance of rain.

Just a tad slow...glaciers are moving faster.

[schap02]

I will check my schedule, may have to drive a buddy to the aroporto, sad news, had to return the Prostaff 95 today, but I went ahead and ordered 3 to start off for next season...blah


also - my playtest frame, one blue stripe and one yellow stripe is indeed the BLX 6.1 Team version, apparently Wilson changed the pattern to 16 x 18 from the original 18 x 20...blah

Downs is a 5.0 congratulations....

Thats "paperweight" territory....J/K

The big hitter from NY will be trolling over my paperweight comment and finally drive down to duel off with TFM

[schap02]

Blah blah blah

The pro who wants the protector with a hole in the middle will be disappointed if I tell him my Austrailian-scandinavian-UK traveling nomad buddy stole it from me

[schap02]

My Boss: Patrick - I noticed you've been missing a good bit of work recently.

Me: Well - I wouldn't say I've been MISSING it.

LOL.. okay... would 3.6 (on a good day) be out of the paperweight and into rock territory? =)

Let us know when you are going to hit. I really wanted to play at Center Court last time, but was out of state.

to management? no thanks. i started in the mailroom and i will die in the mailroom. now JRstriker is easily within striking distance. i think a certain downs will get the ups. i believe schap might get the shaft and have to play 5.0 next year because he went over the 20 or more racquets and you get bumped rule. i think it's called the Jolly Roger in most states.

[tennismonkey]

coolblue let's hit soon. i'm in your neck of the woods. i'm in the paperweight division and own less than 20 racquets.

hahaha...right now it says i'm still 4.0! and it has a year end rating date of 12/31/2011....what does this mean?

[hollywood9826]

I have won numerous open tournaments.

Just this weekend we had the Havre de Grace Decoy Capital of the world tennis championships we had a mens draw with 32 entries. Only the other 31 didnt know about it so I won by defualt. I went like 31-0 in knocking off the other guys in round robin action without actually palying. My winning % was not 0 like some would say but because they didnt show and I advanced I won those matches so my % in deciaml format was one point zero repeating. Not 1,000 percent like a guy in baseball who goes 4 for 4 the first day.

Anyway becasue I play and win open tournaments with no entrants I am an open level player. Ratings are beneath me. Now go buy 25 K90's and string them with BB mains and kevlar crosses at 75 lbs, and lead the sticks up to 14.5 oz and you can be as good as me someday.

To prove your abilities tape yourself hitting for an hour and edit it to 5 mins, to let poeple see how awesome you strokes are.


Then take a wooden racket and hit a serve with a radar gun at 102 MPH and then you can claim the because the radar is at the net you can add 25 MPH and you have just hit the world record wooden racket serve in the history of history.

Do that and gthen you are in paperweight division.

That means that on 12-31-11 you will be a 4.0. 1-1-12 however is another question. I would expect a bump up though. They say if you make nationals its automatic .5 point increase. But if you fly to atlanta and drive back with a stringing nachine it another automatic .5.

So you will probably be 5.0 very soon.
