Tonight's Match is Rained Out!

Tonight's match is rained out. I called Prissy and we made some other calls, yada yada.

Here are the options for now.

Laguna Hills High School, Thursday at 6p. I got the okay from the coach and we may be able to court all five matches at the same time. We can delay start times up to an hour to accommodate whoever.

Purdy's Club, Friday at 5p, but we can only court three teams at once. Same situation as above for start times.

Please reply ASAP whether you are on the match roster or not.

Thanks!

Check it Out!

I know most of you probably already have, but if you haven't checked out our web site on your smartphone (dumb one, whatever), please do so.

I have been texting posts to the site and getting your messages from the site on my old Blackberry (getting the new one soon), but I never really checked out the web site on my phone cause I usually do the other stuff on my laptop.

You iPhone and Android users will really like this. 

It looks killer and you can easily find everything.

Just use the same web address.  Check it out!

How 'Bout Dem Girls from Laguna

Here's what I know about Those Girls from Laguna:

Capt Priscilla (can't remember her last name), although affectionately and conversely named Prissy (remember Foghorn Leghorn's chick) by her teammates, is not so prissy. She still only plays singles and is not known for her accurate line calls. So, Rita or Racquelt, challenge her if you believe she makes a bad call and I would appreciate someone from the team fixed to a bench over there in case the match goes to three sets just to help keep Prissy in line...DOO-Dah! DOO-Dah!

I don't think they ever split up the Sister Act, Holly and Heather Meadows. Heather is still a lefty, has a killer wide serve and always plays ad-court, but has a strong net game and Holly can't seem to ever make it to the net. Holly incessantly tries for the same side line, so give her a little more alley, but be ready to stab that ball back (The stronger net backhand from our team should play deuce-court.). After awhile, she'll stop and start lobbing - it's so predictable. Just bring the ball back down or lob behind Heather - Holly cannot return a lob on the run and the net is like super glue to Heather once she gets there.

Sally Upton, a.k.a. Sandbaggin' Sally, is still on the team. This woman knows when and whom to lose to and win to beat the crap out of them in order to keep her 4.0. rating. I think she has an app on her phone for this. All her shots are sound and nothing stands out except for perhaps her backhand slice, but she'll will find your weakness(es) and start chiseling away at it. She's a smart tennis player. Fortunately, she usually plays doubles so you will at least have an alternate target, but I have never seen her with a slacker - play smart!

Let me know what you got on these girls!

Congratulations Rita

Rita Rippen will complete the Spring Season, playing every scheduled match in singles and has giving only 9 games to her opponents thus far. 

We hope not to lose her to the 4.5's come next year after the ratings, but if we do, we wish her the best.

Post Season Cook-Oouut

The Post Season Cook-Oouut is scheduled for Friday, April 12th at Purdy's house. 

Purdy will soon be posting the time, a map to her place and whatever else, so please respond when she does so in order for her to get her ducks in a row. I didn't know she had any actually.

She did want me to say that her niece (21 yrs old) is staying with them for a few weeks and is great with children, so you can forget the baby sitter in regard to your plans if you so choose.

I'm lettin' loose and Josh promised to be the DD for the night. I hope he can handle all you girls half-sober.

Let's have a wonderful time and from here I turn it over to Purdy.

Oh, I forgot. Tommy from Tommy's Teez loved the bleeding rose image so much he went and made a sample t-shirt for us to check-out at the cook-out. He said he will give us a good deal if we go to State. 

Back to you Purdy.

Need Some Recruits for Guys and Dolls

Guys and Dolls 8.0 will be beginning their season really soon and we lost two guys from last year. For those of you playing with us or even if not, we need a 3.5 and/or a 4.0 guy (don't forget 40+, not so old farts) and maybe even a strong 3.0 for Racquelt to boss around. It's extremely easy finding partners for her, just difficult keeping them.

Let me know or call my co-captain, Ford D. Love, at 800-555-1212!
