  1. On the Tennis Channel right now we have a replay of today’s match in Strasbourg between Ashlyn Krueger and McCartney Kessler and I am realizing that this is finally confirmation that these two women are not, in fact, the same person. They both have minimal personalities attached to their tall blonde, long-legged slim bodies. 🤷‍♂️😴
  2. Luc de Jong, who Pepi outplayed from the bench up until his knee injury, somehow was named to the Eredivisie 1st Team squad. Really? …okay… Says a lot about that league.
  3. These scores always make me chuckle. 🤭 👆 [iPhone suggested emoji for “chuckle”. I most likely won’t be using that emoji much/ever in the future, at least not on Surly.]
  4. Consummate gentleman, Jamie Vardy, gets his 200th for Leicester City in his last home match for Leicester City.
  5. I just realized that I may (some of) what it takes to be a top notch NCAA Power 4 Conference Athletic Director.
  6. I had separated our day in sports 🥎 & ⛳️🏌️‍ from their day of failure, but then I was reminded by this gentleman- Roman Empire…
  7. We are nothing but a school of failure! • Softball 🥎 • Tennis 🎾 • Baseball ⚾️
  8. This who front page was just like ordering 3 desserts 🧁 🍨 🍮 . . . • Softball 🥎 • Tennis 🎾 • Baseball ⚾️ We are nothing but a school of failure!
  9. Yesterday there were four (FOUR) rivalry matches that ended… 0 - 0 😴
  10. That last missed par putt by Poston cost him hundreds of thousands of dollars.
  11. Scottie! Such a calm putter. Moves like a sloth 🦥 when putting. He’s pretty low key. It’s still comical how that off-duty cop was able to escalate his tripping and ripping his pants into an arrest of a polite guy who moves like a sloth. 🦥
  12. Which is not to say that- “You can’t teach 7-footers.” Because you absolutely can.
  13. Apparently, he is much more Panama Myers than George Mueller… Except that he has George’s height. This is a lump of clay that I think this coaching staff can mold into something that can help our team. No tripping over his feet and falling down while just running down court.

    If only he’d gone “Go Pack, Go!” Stay humble. Study your past participles. Hook’em!
  15. This one wants Scheifele. She wants to wrap those thin lips around him and nibble him with those gray teeth of hers.
  16. Crap! That was a great opportunity for our Starssss!
  17. He’s British, so let’s start there.
  18. 1) The fact that The Tennis Channel 🎾 has a sound feed that is about a full second ahead of the video feed is really annoying! 2) Don’t call me racist because I’m pulling for Paolini 🇮🇹. I just can’t quite that little Italian bundle of joy. She’s my little caramel macchiato. Full Disclosure: Paolini is also of (relatively recent) African descent, but not to the same degree as her American opponent.
  19. On this page I learned that prices have went. 🤔 What will prices do next?
  20. Speaking of Italians at the Italian Open… Paolini 🇮🇹 plays Gauff 🇺🇸 in the final today at 10am CDT. Paolini 🇮🇹 & Errani 🇮🇹 beat Schneider 🇷🇺 & Andreeva 🇷🇺 in the semis to play in the final tomorrow. Sinner 🇮🇹 is in the final tomorrow vs Álvaraz 🇪🇸. The local fans will have lots to cheer for.
  21. 🤘🏈🐂
  22. Yes, he does now, but he grew up in the German speaking part of Italy and his parents are German speakers. His Italian was supposedly fairly rough until he went to train at the national tennis center, where everything was in Italian. If you listen to him speak English, you will notice that he does not sound like an Italian speaking English. Nothing about his accent or body language would indicate that he has ever even been to Italy before this tournament. If I were speaking English with Sinner somewhere in Italy (outside of Tyrol) in front of Italians who didn’t follow tennis, I would be mistaken for being the Italian in our conversation at least 9 times out of 10 (due in no small part to my time in Argentina) over Sinner.
