I want to write my ass off about tomorrow's final. I really do. But I had a long day watching my boy battle it out on the pitch, it's tournament time, and I finally just grabbed a shower, so I'm sipping a nice cold beer before I turn in (after watching some Tour de France …

Breaking: Wimbledon Quarterfinals!
Sure I'm being cheeky. This tournament has been underway a week and a half and I've been sitting on my ass blog-wise, but be assured I have many better things to do than watch guys (and gals) try to get their grass feet beneath them in what has amounted to a blink of an eye …
Wimbledon 2020
Obviously so much has changed due to Covid-19, locally, in and around our homes and communities, and beyond, getting glimpses, a chance to "see" via social and more traditional media how others are dealing with this pandemic throughout the world. I wish I'd written more about the silver-lining of the crisis (and I still have …

The Stimulus Bill: Fuck You, Bill. https://twitter.com/mudfleas/status/1245092363439083526 But she'll get a check for $1200 in May or June, so she's good. The Trumplicans are an absolute shit show. The Democrats are probably no better, but how far do you get by comparing turds. Trump's belief that this was a hoax will, like his impeachment, follow …
2019 WB Final: Tennis Divinity or Brutal Blood Feud?
I have no idea how to write this post -- what direction to go, how to make this interesting. So many things have already been said, observed, clarified. Hell, read the comments from some of my astute readers on the last couple of posts. Great insight, articulation, voice, engagement. Thanks always for reading, folks, and …

Delayed Reaction to WB Final
Folks, sorry for the delay. Sure, I'm partly still stunned and practically speechless. But, as you know, I'm never really at a loss for words. Nor am I trying to buy more time in order to craft, as we speak, an epic post analyzing what was an incredible match between Federer and Djokovic. Of course, …
Federer Beats Nadal in Four
According my own preview, Federer in three or four would be an upset. Federer out-played Nadal all day, yet this was still, in the end, an upset. The last set, especially the end of the match, proves this point. At 3-2 in the fourth, Federer had his early break, so all he had to do …
Wimbledon Semi-final Preview
We have a nice little line-up for tomorrow's Wimbledon men's singles semi-finals. Though some of the draws burst into flames and let, in some respects, the dogs in, we arrive at a final four most tennis fans can appreciate, which may be a gigantic understatement. The Big 3 are alive and well, seemingly. Roger, you …
Wimbledon QF Preview: Legends Speak
The Joker https://youtu.be/cq5vcVRQv4Q That's Roger more or less. Remember the TSQ? The public, per usual, has a lot of the reading on these matters a bit off, perhaps way off. They call Novak the Djoker. Wrong. Roger is the one goofing around, having fun; his whole enterprise is an exhibition. Start with the way he …
Wimby’s R16: are We in Paris?
Manic Monday they're calling this? I don't know quite what to make of this half-breed grass court tennis that's been living in the alley next to my house since Stuttgart (since the mid Aughts). The nightmare of clay seems to still be in the air. I just returned from England; spent a day in Paris. …
