French Open ’25 SF

Rare, quick post, ya'll. Sorry if we're a little rough around the edges. 😀 I really don't pay much attention to the tour at this point and for good reason. The day-in-and-day-out grind is of pretty piss poor quality, which we talked about for years. Seeing Zverev there in the QF against Djokovic left a …

Let’s Begin Again with some Back to Basics

This has been a tennis blog, but that discombobulated mess has not kept my interest so let's start with some other basics and get to tennis towards the end here. For this blog to continue I will have to stretch my brain anyways; may as well start now. I do miss writing. This is a …

No Style

Some of you love the likes of Borna Coric, Pablo Carreno Busta and Alex De Minaur. Start a tennis blog and advocate for that garbage. I'm not sorry.

This virus, as I said in a post or two ago "has everyone disturbed, confused, not-giving-a-shit, panicking, and getting ill and dying. Just horrific stuff."  I said that on February 18. That's like me saying Medvedev …

The Fangirls and Boys Meet the Grinch

On court: Zverev comes back from 2 sets to 1, winning the decider fifth in a TB. In Brisbane. Among the rowdy Aussies. Big five-set win for the (still) young German. Off court: There is nothing like the sucking sounds the low-oxygen fangirls and fanboys emit while wrestling their resentment in the wake of a …

Here I Go Again: My Tennis Crap Detector

Fuck the AO and the ATP. Beyond the injury issues that plague the sport, about which many are concerned; the money -- did you hear what Djokovic said at the players-only meeting? and other problems this tour -- and society in general -- deals with, the Australian Open, as we begin voyage on this new …
