The Smartfella? is a tennis player, of sorts. That being said, it is not strange that I watch the big tennis matches on television, to some degree. Here is the degree to which I watch the big matches…
>I watch every Andy Roddick match.
>Once Roddick loses, I do not watch any more matches, until the finals.
>Even in the finals, I only watch the end of the matches (unless it is shorter than I expect and then I miss the whole thing).
Here is the Smartfella‘s? Fondest Tennis Wish…
>I wish that when the final ball has bounced its final bounce, the winner, male or female (especially male), would not fall on the ground and start crying.
>It has been a long time since I have seen the triumphant champion simply smile, wave and jog up to the net and shake hands with the vanquished opponent.
I can guarantee each and every one of you faithful readers that, when I win a Grand Slam Tennis Tournament, you will not see me on the ground crying, rolling around and getting up to blow kisses to my worshiping, adoring and weeping fans.
Would I kid u?
