Default Really tough question...

If you had to decide between these 2 options what would you do?

Option 1: Play a best of 3 set match with any pro of your choice on any surface (Sampras, Federer, Moya ect.)

or...

Option 2: Getting to "hook up" with anyone of your choice (Halle Berry, Cameron Diaz, some surpermodel, etc)


I thought of this in a very bored moment but I think its a tough decision. I think I would choose option 1, and play Sampras or Rios on a medium-slow hardcourt or clay although its hard to not choose option 2.

I love tennis, but c'mon. Option 2 of course. Provided I get to bring my camera along.

I picked Option #1, as I can accomplish both options by playing with Amanda Coetzer. (sorry, Carmen Electra) I'd pick as fast a surface as possible.

option 2 because option 1 wouldn't last all too long.

I'd take option 1 IF I get to play with Anna Pornikova, or Maria Sharapova. Nathalie Dechy would be fine too. Other than these 3, give me any supermodel, doesnt matte which one lol

Well the thing is, any of us would get killed so bad against any pro that it would probably just be downright depressing. I'd rather hang out and drink beer with my choice of player than play against him.

I'm going to go with Alan, better to hang out and have a good time, rather than get double bageled with minimal exchange of words. But to answer your question Option 1 Becker on grass.
Option 2 if I wasn't thinking of getting engaged.

Enjoy your beer with Lendl. Haha. And make sure he changes to plain clothes before you guys go 'hang out'. The all Adidas outfit won't look too good at the mall...

I chose number two; however, I would want to be hooked up with Maria Sharapova and that would lead to getting to play with her which would be the most I would hope for out of the number one option. I figure this way she'd go easier on me, and if not, she's just one of the many who would play two golden sets against me so I might as well have some other things to keep me interested in the match.

I don't know if any of you are or have watched the Sharapova-Serena match, but can anybody see how obvious it is that she wants me? or is it just me?

LMAO Ucd Ace. BTW, I was playing at a YMCA the other night and there were two homosexual guys playing on an adjacent court and I couldn't help but notice they cuddled on the bench at the changeover. After I struggled to hold my dinner down, I made sure I looked away during their changeovers. I guess the cuddling at the changeover is what you guys have in mind wanting option #1 with a female pro?

Tennis g@y? You must be kidding me. It has to be the YMCA... Try to hit the country club next time.

I know, David, it looks like YMCA ****-erotics aren't just for the Village People anymore!

I'd play Edberg on grass. I already have the girl I want. Boring answer, but that's the way it is. But a fun conundrum it was!

Here we go again... In the middle of a serious conversation trying to handle the G word and someone suddenly brings up Edberg. Hmm.

Option 1 is priceless for a real tennis player fan, Option 2 is risky business, I personally would stay away from Hollywood types
