ps Thanks Bob & Goran for bombard me with the returns on my serve, you guys were on fire today.
UA - rain started a little after 10am today and Jr doesn't get up early on the weekends. HAHA! might need to find an earlier rising partner if this early rain continues.
still digging the BG. got 3 sets in a string trade.
Haha, you were Babolatized j/k
Almost cracked my racquet yesterday. Played after the rain and it was so humid. Slipped out of my hand on a serve and luckily landed handle first. The grip was wet enough to slip but not enough to make me worry . . . Would have cracked for sure if it hadn't landed how it did.
I was up 6-2, 3-1 when a light rain started yesterday. I checked the radar up 3-2 and saw a huge line of storms almost over us. Knowing that it could rain anytime, we played 2 more games but I was so paranoid about my racket slipping out of my hand that I stopped going for my shots. We only got 2 more games in after that.

Yeah, the same happened to UA! Man, yesterday was like playing in the cloud
Btw, that used to happen to me quite often but I solved that issue with bigger grip size AND my grip is more relaxed since I don't overcompensate with "the grip of death"
Thats what I did except mine did crack . Sucks, and I'm out 100 to get a new stick from Dunlop. I told them I may wait and see about the new 200s coming out soon and just go with 2 racquets for now.
I've lived with 2 rackets all year. Seems like nylon based strings last me almost twice as long in the summer. Once it gets cold again, I guess they get more brittle and I get more nervous about only having 1 backup stick.
Yeah 3 is super nice when you string your own as you know. I am a ridiculous procrastinator when it comes to stringing sometimes. I think that will change when football season starts.
Yesterday I just left my towel by the fence and used it on my right arm about every 2 points. My grip still was soaked into the leather underneath. If I was in charge of laundry, I'd buy 10 sweatbands and 10 towels to use each match!
Oh yeah, yesterday was definitely something special. My trusty Yonex OGs felt and looked like never before and I went trough 3 drifit shirts which is unprecedented
Anyone wanna hit today?
[/Got the Mikeler on tap today at OTC.QUOTE]
Rain out. That storm blew in just as we were both getting out of our cars. Try again next week.

I should have just headed straight home. Leaving downtown in a downpour at rush hour takes a LONG time!

I head straight out Old Winter Garden Road. Its not to bad. I usually pay for the tolls there but not coming home. I guess I'm cheap.

Me too. I take the 408 to Hiawassee. I-4 and the rain are not a good combo.
Played 1 set today. Blew 2 games in a row with 40-0 leads at the end of the set to lose it. My serve sucks in the wind.
I'll be there around 5:30ish with a friend.

lol nah he's better than me!Is he also a supreme sponge-man?
Is it raining there right now? I just drove past Waterford area and it was sunny/hot/humid out.This is ridiculous!!:evil: I'm playing today yes or yes....so after this storms pass by if somebody want to hit tonight please let me know.

Quick rant but this has to be the most ridiculous thing ever. My teacher decided to round down my 89.47 in a very subjective course. Maybe im out of line because most teachers round close grades up ... especially in high tier classes.
How could you do that to a student. 89.47 in my hard class . . . nope .03% is just too much.
Hey Bob,
Where can I get that special tape for the Babolat butt caps? Both of mine are starting to move ever so slightly.
I have to find another way to replenish electrolytes. Even a 50/50 mix of gatorade is starting to make me nauseated. Any suggestions from TWCFL?
