I'm at the University of Louisville getting my Masters in Jazz Drumming. After that, who knows? As long as I can play my tennis and make a living playing drums, I'll be happy. I suppose I'm not your average Furman graduate, though I did double major with Communication Studies so I have a...

Hey, I've played on that court! I was on the club team for the last two years. Didn't start playing tennis until freshman year at FU, and I've been playing every chance since. After graduation last year, I'm hacking away at 4.0 level... Your strokes look good, BTW! I'm not qualified to...

No, it's not. I don't even need to explain this. It simply is not the same.

I dunno about that... I think a simpler, less potentially game-damaging modification would be to simply keep your left hand on the racquet longer during takeback, or at least to think of them as a unit. Your ready position is to hold the racquet with both hands, right? So, if you begin your...

LOL! BS to everyone who claimed to serve over 115... a serve that speed is smoking!

Ugh. If you're out of your element in the argument and can't dispute their logic, throw up smoke and mirrors! Change the parameters! Straw man! Excellent tactics, LeeD...

LeeD, you seem like you have an agenda of self-aggrandizement. You always drop names and brag about your past, then subtly (or not) put others down. Your ego knows no bounds (oh sure, you can just "thow in an ace" whenever you want to... so why not always?). You've only been here for a...

Well, I used to self-rate at 4.0 and beat a guy 6-1 who was on a 3.5 league. This past fall I played on a 4.0 flex league for the first time and finished 3-2... In general though, most people I meet do tend to over-rate themselves--I advertise as 4.0, but a lot of 3.0s end up contacting me...

FYI, copping sentence structure and argument presentation--without citation--IS enough to count as plagiarism (at least at the graduate student level). I don't know what methodology turnitin.com uses, but if there were a live human being comparing the two papers, you'd probably get busted...

Another vote for CutePDF. It's lightweight and works cross-applications, similar to PrimoPDF... it's essentially a printer driver emulator.

Thanks for the reply, LeeD! That set was a bad one for me, serving-wise. Last Sunday, I completed my first set with no double faults--and, it was a long, hard-fought set. Final score was 7-6 (7-3). After reaching that milestone, I'm making a conscious effort to go for more on my second...

Played on 1/8/09 at the Bass-Rudd tennis center in Louisville, KY. Part 1 here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AlU9mCRbFA Part 2 and post-match hitting here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sJgTWMNGLU We had less than an hour on the courts, so we started our set with 2-3 minutes of...

Well, I'm way too tired to post much, but here's my Myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/danielfalter I've been playing for quite a while, and I'm currently getting my Masters in Performance on Jazz Drumset at the University of Louisville. I'll post more later w/ my set-up, etc...

Notice that these three shots of his are all coming in at different heights... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm???????? Maybe, just maybe, that's why his grip is different?

I'm surprised the author doesn't mention the fact that many local CBS affiliates didn't even show the final! I'm sure many of us tried to tune in, only to be thwarted... Link to original article US Open ratings down for pushed-back men’s final Sep 9, 5:18 pm EDT NEW YORK...

How high is your monitor resolution? This is a pretty good size, and you could fashion your own wallpaper quite easily with this photo...

Yeah, I would keep your ground strokes deep. Be aware, though; if he comes in on anything and you don't catch it, a moonball will be an easy put-away. Also, figure out which is his weaker wing (backhand, probably) and try to keep your groundstrokes to that side. He'll be less comfortable...

Drakulie's avatar! I got used to seeing Yoda, so the "13" really threw me for a loop. I gotta say, though... hopefully you soon have another opportunity to change your avatar... perhaps to "14"?

The thing is, while her celebration was certainly justified, it just looked so awkward since she's so... "hefty"!

First of all, welcome to the boards! You certainly chose a good match to be indoctrinated into tennis... Tennis Warehouse has a very handy "TV Schedule"... it should be one of the links on the top of every page on this board. As far as a tennis channel goes, you're referring to the...

Here in Louisville, KY the local CBS affiliate is showing !@*&# local news!!

Just turn it to CBS... it should be there. The program information is wrong on my cable, but the actualy feed is correct.

Wow... nice choice with Donovan Mcnabb!

That works too, but they're just copying the the Justin.tv stream (watermark)...

Actually, it's just justin.tv... no .com at the end

http://www.justin.tv/ They're streaming it right now...

Yes, he does. ;)

Why would you want to kill all the feel? Try a rubber band, man!

Wow... this one should have been submitted for consideration in the "Worst Facial Hair" thread...
