Tennis Warehouse-Mid Atlantic Chapter

[sapient007]

my plan was f-ed from the start with all dates mixed up. but i would bet against by ability to hold out for an 1:30 lunch. i'll leave your parking permit with my doorman tonight so you can pick it up in the morning, if you want to pick it up regardless, it'll be there.

[sapient007]

what time are you looking to leave rock bottom sup? you match is at 3? so i'm guessing 2:55?

Hey MrHan!
Thanks for the offer, but my hours are insane hah. My start time and end time is different almost every single day due to my schedule conforming to the Senate's schedule.
Thanks very much for thinkin of me tho!

If it wouldn't be too much trouble if you're placing an order i'd buy 2 sets of Maxim Touch 16 off ya if you're ordering

[tfm1973]

Rock Bottom in BETHESDA at NOON TODAY? I'll be there.

Sup -- is the maxim touch you put on my sticks 16 gauge or 17 gauge? i hit with em for 2 hours yesterday. it's fantastic string. woke up this morning -- no wrist pain. no arm pain. i give it the TFM thumbs up with a very minor pinky down because the strings move around just a bit. i actually have to move a string back in place every couple of points.

Goober - at first i thought that guy in that photo was michael chang. but i think michael chang's quads would've been 4 times bigger. either way - no grown man should ever wear shorts that tiny. and the corollary is that no grown man should wear shorts this long unless he's won the french open 3 times in a row.

I strung your racquet up with 16 guage. You have to be putting a lot of spin on it for it to barely move. The poly coating on it actually makes it dig in to each other, so its pretty hard to get them to move around.

Maxim Touch is a pretty great string for the arm, the wallet and your game. If you want a lot more spin and power, try the 17guage. Versus the 16g (17 stiff -153 vs 16 stiff of 190). It plays awesome but will break about 2x faster

Thanks.

Heat doesn't bother me so much as not having a beer in the last 24 hours.

TFM, watch me at Rock Bottom. We are in a bar after all!

Thanks for the cheer Topaz!

I've been drinking water like crazy since last night. I also packed 3 liters of water, 2 gatorades, and 1 accelorade.

Sup - thanks for the tip last night - brough my golf umbrella and a lawn chair from target last night.

Darn you TFM *shakes fist* you ruined a match that I didn't set my DVR for and won't have the time to watch!!!

[tfm1973]

yeps go get em boys. try and do us proud. but if you know you're about to go down hard -- cause a big scene or something so i can watch you on the news tonight.

"two men dressed as Superman and a Wookie were arrested earlier today at an amateur tennis tournament in DC today. They were both cited for public intoxication and assault and battery with jerk chicken."

maxim touch is my string du jour. i'll keep track of how many hours before it pops. if it lasts a long time -- i'll give the 17 gauge a shot.

Actually, those of us who actually have thigh muscles worth looking at don't mind wearing the tiny shorts, as long as the lookers don't expect anything other than big, powerful thighs.

To all you tournament warriors, break a leg - preferably the other guy's. Play like pirates - take what you want and laugh at the rest.

To the victors - and the non victors - Drink up me hearties, yo ho!
