I could've made this a comment in my last post. But I wanted to string this out. And, sorry: blame the fanboy/girl contingent for this post, which bumps my Nadalism post to tomorrow. To the guy coming at me for my previous post about the WTF and the rest of you just like him or …

Cincy 2017 Downgraded to ATP World Tour 500 Event?
Of course not. But the draw is missing: Federer, Djokovic, Murray, Wawrinka, Cilic and Nishikori, at least. So, let's see some of these young lads take-up the slack. We've already begun this discussion, previewed the younger field briefly, ahead of schedule. We're ahead of schedule at Mcshow Blog. The biggest hiccup in all of this …

Do We Argue Enough?
You should sense that I am not exactly the warm-and-fuzzy type when it comes to communication, engaging in a meaningful conversation. Much of my commentary, points of discussion, or general input on the tennis world I hope can be described as having a bit of an edge. Of course, the occasional rant will often clarify this …
Timeout: Let’s Burn Some Bullshit
Because we're on the web (can't deny my blog is on the internet, unfortunately), we get more or less tossed-in to this bath-house of points-of-view, some of which fail on several levels. However, the positives of the internet, I'm afraid, outweigh the negatives, which, granted, is a vague generalization, but you and I know I'm …
Federer Routines Cilic for Eighth Wimbledon Title
You probably watched the final, at least heard about what happened or didn't happen. We could blame the blister, I guess. Quite unfortunate for the aspiring ATP threat with one major and one Masters. Cilic looked solid through the first four games, had the BP, missed, was broken in the next game, lost the first …

Djokovic Bullshit
"I started noticing an improvement in Djokovic’s game against Lopez in Madrid, especially in his backhand. It could be the greatest backhand of all time and it is a key shot for him. When he hits it will full confidence it is an absolutely devastating shot like it was today against Thiem." --Bullshit . . …
Dear, Reader . . .
I could have thanked the couple of readers in my previous post as the subject came up about people appreciating my blog, but I thought I'd write a post thanking them and anyone else who enjoys the blog (loved the big boost in readership during the AO. . .stick around! 😀 First and foremost, cheers to all …
Exhibit A
There are some tennis voices that admittedly lack any perspective and sound like little cheerleaders rooting-on their heroes. Do yourself a favor, dear reader. Exhibit A In answering someone who questions a certain blogging "expert's" tennis perspective: "So yeah, I prefer looking for positives of my favorite player than for negatives. I can’t tell other …
Addendum to my Addendum
My last post was perhaps as befuddled as is this Fanovic spin zone. The fanboys and girls are jumping on Becker's loose tongue and the hysteria surrounding this spin is as loud as was the uber confidence that their hero would demolish Murray in the WTF like he did that straw man Nishikori. Let me …
Behold the Madness
Matt's Blog exists to counter some of the madness in the tennis universe by which vulnerable community members might become startled, confused, led astray, and disillusioned. Or worse. The sport seems to be under some sort of attack from tennis spokespeople who somehow think they know what the sport needs. In most of these cases, for almost any relevant …
