If you've read this blog for a few years, you recognize that title. I am re-publishing that old article: see link below. https://mcshowblog.com/2018/10/21/why-mens-tennis-is-no-longer-worth-a-shit/ I am doing this for two reasons: The sport beyond the major tournaments is dominated by only a sprinkling of noteworthy form from players mostly forgettable (until proven otherwise), so writing about …

The Rise of Off-season Mcshow
We need to get after some discussion on this dormant blog. There is a lot to discuss. I think the best way is to start with some commentary about each of the top three kings, legends, dinosaurs, aliens . . . whatever you want to call Fedalovic. We'll start tonight or tomorrow. Today's my birthday, …
Added Programming @Mcshow
My idea of a visual to represent my bright idea. This is a look at downtown San Diego, at dawn; then panning back across our north to our east county, to last Sunday's sunrise. Along with the dirtball we'll be covering over the next two to three months, seeing if Djokovic can really catch and …
Donating to Mcshow Blog
Being the quasi-technophobe that I am (seems more and more difficult to take this position -- or more important!), note that I was able (on my own as I continue to limit costs when I can) to implement a "Donate" feature in my sidebar on the right. Any donation is very much appreciated as I …
Federer Into Stuttgart Final & We’ve Got Tennis Schwag
Be honest: did you think the mention of schwag meant I'd gone ahead and created some Mcshow Blog schwag? More honesty: would you be reaching for your wallet? I'm going to take that as a double yes, which turns-out to be Kyrgios-like, given his eight DFs today in the Stuttgart SF v Federer. Mcshow Blog …

Federer Opens Play at Stuttgart and Mcshow Marketing
Federer Opens Play at Stuttgart Federer did look a little rough despite some really nice play as well from both him and Zverev the elder. I was ready to refute a lot of the claims I heard today that sounded pretty cliché, with Federer back from his 2 1/2 month hiatus, getting his feet used …

Mcshow Blog Update & Rome R32
Tough to believe it's been a year. A year since what? After all, we've been going strong on tennis since about this time of year 2015. Turns-out, I suspect, this is an interesting time of year. In terms of tennis and in terms of my availability to do what I really like to do. Last …
Privatizing Mcshow Blog (Not)
Like I said, I'm not a WordPress savant, nor do I really fancy the glory of technology (though much of this digitalization of our triumph and tragedy -- of life -- is pretty cool!). I set the blog to private yesterday thinking that my followers would still, seemingly naturally, have access. That doesn't appear to …
Germany v Australia DC
Sascha Zverev v De Minaur is underway. . . Please note: I am going to most likely make my blog "private" in the next day or two, which simply means that one must follow or register to gain access. Why? Because this really is my social media and having people subscribe to or "follow" the …
About a Week Out
I start work, another fall semester, next Monday, but this is only a casual coincidence (or is it?) that the year's final major about which we are fairly interested also takes-off and hopefully soars, lifting our imaginations (academic and tennis, to speak of at least two) to ever terrific heights, of which we will be …
