This is my first post, yay me! Alright, anyone up for a game of SDMB Tennis?
I’ll serve.
<Serve>Smashes in a 210kph blinder.</Serve>
Takes it right in the groin. I’m out. Bring on the understudy … and a medic!
The crowd nearly break their necks following the ball across the net
Yojimbo worries about his balls but puts that out of his mind long enough to hit a powerful top spin forehand back across.
"ERRRREEAH" The crowds eardrums burst.
Ell, moving sleekly not unlike some large cat, strecthes out his full physique in anticipation of a flawless cross-court backhand, yet fails to return. It was the top spin that got him, the world No.2 is not happy. Frankly he’s going to have to play better than this to defeat yojimbo.
Yojimbo struts to the other side of the court and waves to his numerous female fans. [sub]I hope the wig stays on this time[/sub]
He taps his Nike runners with his racquet(sp?) and waits for the next serve.
gets out the really loud crucnhy food and takes a seat ready to begin heckling
1941: First organ played at a baseball stadium and Batting helmets were worn for the first time, the establishment of the Afrika Korps, the Bismarck finally sunk, Japanese attack Pearl HarbourEll seems to have gone 
and I’ll be going to bed soon.
Somebody should take over as it’s a very good silly thread idea IMHO.
*Twisty runs on to the pitch, manically weilding a dishcloth and a loofah.
Sorry, I missed the “knife” class in “obsessed stalker 101”
so, who wants to be Monica Seles???
Blast, ranked no. 5002 in the world-wide standings prepares his “mega-ultra death serve from hell-a-saurus rex”.
Bounces ball
Steely concentration…wipes sweat from eyes.
Bounces ball again, just to make sure. Hits Keds and bounces away. blast runs after it, colliding with ball boy.
Nervous laughter from crowd.
Blast recovers said ball.
Tosses ball into air, and ever so deftly, gracefully, sveltly, defines a perfect arc in the air. Contact is emminent.
Racket developes hole in center and misses ball…
Cursing insues.
(little does the opposing player know this is all a farse to throw them off-gaurd)
(yeah, right)
Blast tries again…WHACK!
It a killer…how will Blast’s worthy opponent EVER counter this powerhouse of a serve…
Ell struts back on court after having a lovely dinner and apologises profusely to his many adoring fans. Stops and gets the phone number of the cute blonde in row 2. He’s focused now, not on the game but on that blonde again.
Nope now he focused back on the game.
First serve, serves a kick serve - 190kph. Fault 1
Doesn’t seem like he’s got his eye on the game.
Second serve, ace! 140kph. He’s got yojimbo there. But that was pretty dirty tactics from the young Australian, considering yojimbo has gone to bed.
I’m snapping pictures of Anna Kournikova who is playing on the adjacent court. Ooooh … pout for me, sweetie!
Well I’m in my PJ’s 
Anyway blastfurnace seems to have me covered.
Coldfire, in full Jeff Tarango mode, insults the umpire and gets dragged off the court by four sweaty security guards.
In your PJ’s? I’ve got this match in the bag!
was also having a bit of a perve at the girl’s games on outside courts though he prefers Dominic van Roost and Martina Hingis to Kournikova
attention returned long enough to call out a few derogatory comments to blastfurnace (such as"you call THAT a serve? The ice cream is serving better than that!!") and cheer loudly for Coldfire’s tantrum (he was robbed!!)
as for yojombo’s pj’s … well, you’re lucky we’re not at Wimbledon where they wouldn’t let you on court in THAT.
And then again WE’RE lucky you wear SOMETHING to bed…
1942: Elephants stampeded through Cleveland, “Final Solution” (jew extermination rather than deportation) formulated, Julia Flikke of the Nurse Corps became the first woman colonel in the U.S. Army, the Battle of Midway took place, Paul McCartney and Jimi Hendrix born, Walt Disney's animated feature "Bambi" and “Casablanca” premiered, Australian forces defeated the Japanese on New Guinea in the South Pacific, Bing Crosby recorded "White Christmas." It became the top-selling single record until the 1997 "Candle In the Wind" by Elton John and Bernie Taupin was re-written for the funeral of Princess Diana.
