Venus wins easily again, 6-2, 6-1, only losing three games in two sets. Just like the way I beat Mav. Actually I can sometimes pull off the old donut, ya know, 6-0.

Hey Mc! you wanna come get all these fuckin' tennis balls? I don't know what to do with them all. They're still in the top of your closet, minus the few miss k plays with.

Let's have a used tennis ball party. You know tennis players do it with fussy balls! Could I get my computer table back? Do you use it? I could use it, if not. You know I got a web site I gotta post on.

Andre is through and he is almost as old as me. And what am I doing, oh still drunk, bleary eyed and sleep deprived. Time for the beach.

Eh, I must admit, I missed Wimbledon. I was up til 4 am last night which was good because again I'm trying to get my sleeping schedule straight for my overnight shift. But what about tomorrow? Is it on tomorrow or only Saturdays?

It's on everyday for a while, if you have cable. A fortnight, orn something silly like that. I'm always at work so i keep up over the internet, which is proably the worst way to do it. As it is now, as everyone I know sleeps I'm at work on a Sunday morning. oh well. It ain't all bad.

It's an All American woman's semi final! Now that is why we go to war.

Ruined it for me though, telling me Andre lost as I was watching the match (which I thought Was live) in the middle of set three with them tied 1 set each and Andre up 3-2. Oh well, seeing as how Agassi's apparently too old, that means McCutcheon is too, since he's older.

Not too old to beat boy buddy boy. Like when was the last time I lost to you? Hum, oh that's right. NEVER. But I shouldn't have ruined it for you though, you're right on that one.

Mav beat McCutcheon in a set yesterday 6-4, for the first time ever! Didn't win a match, mind you, but did win a set. Baby steps. Afterwards Mav said, "It felt like having sex for the first time, you think your whole world is going to change, but after life is pretty much still the same."

Of course I have my excuses, like the kid and his coach in the next court, the kid who was about 20, was throwing his racket all over the place and even through it into our court once, then he started kicking balls and was actually crying. He was making a huge spectacle of himself, not in a good way, the big fucking baby. The kid was good, maybe has the potential to be a 5.0 player some day, but he is nothing special. I could have taken him. Also we had to quit playing about three times in the middle of games because Mav's phone kept going off- a major pet peeve to one and all, especial on the tennis courts. And oh yeah, I was demoing a new racket. I'm switching from my overhead Wilson to a small head Prince. A major change for me. I'm trying to get more power on my serve. But hey, excuses are for losers and I lost the set 6-4. Next time you see Mav buy him a beer, or at least a can of tennis balls. Congrats to Mav.

This is a fucking outrage, no where on the West coast are they showing Wimbledon live!!! Not even on ESPN. My love Venus in Furs lost the first set 6-4. Just like I lost to Mav. But I also missed Timmy going down once again in front of his home town crowd, young Andy winning (now there is no crybaby- what a fucking player!) and Serena getting her revenge.

FUCK YOU USA TV!!!!!!

Luckily ... we east coasters are getting it all live!

hey, I'm older (though not by much) older than Mc and I'd kick his ass on the tennis court any day. I still play with my mid-sized wide body Wilson Pro Staff kevlar/graphite mix racket from late college. It's near 10 years old and I can't give it up. To much damned control with it. Way enough to wup your arse!

Aww don't make McCutcheon feel too small...he's already hurting from being beaten...besides, all those excuses about the distracting crybaby and the phone calls...they distracted me too, but I still won.

As long as we're mentioning quotes, McCutcheon once said I'd never beat heim even when we're like 80 and he's playin in a wheelchair and on oxygen. I once thought I'd have to wait until then to prove him wrong, but I did it before my hair is totally gray!

Nice one Mav... I though Mc was hitting pretty well yesterday.. at least when I played him. Mc is a bend but don't break kind of player. Like a reed in the wind kind of Karate Kid of tennis.
