Cool Scariest Thing your Partner Said to you

I thought this was funny so I thought I'd make a thread.

My daughter was playing their 4th match in Districts over the weekend. She had played 2X for 2 days straight. In their final match, which she was excited about winning, her partner said to her: "something's wrong with my racquet." ROFL

If you want anything to burst your bubble it would be those words! What exactly does that mean anyhow? How aggravating for your partner to hear that!!!

Maybe she was hitting with the wrong side of it?

LMAO. Been there. Done that. Twice. In the past 4 years to the same partner. Luckily, she was very cool about it. Even floated me some of her outfit castoffs when my belly got too big. Mind you, she ain't that much bigger than me.

Glad she's stuck with me all these years. We're undefeated this season.

A new guy on our team partnered with me asked, "how do you feel about me hitting short lobs on the net?"

"Since you the better returner, you tell me what side you want."

Because we are in real trouble if I am the better serve returner.

I was paired with a guy who flew in from New York to La Costa to play the Pro/Am in the Men's A division. He told me his name and with a straight face the next then he said was," I won this division last year and I expect to win it again this year."

Way to apply the pressure. Well, he was good; so he won again. Good thing.

New one today, during warm-up:

"Don't you need to warm up your volleys?"

"No."
