HOLY SHIT: The DOJ has subpoenaed further surveillance video of Mar-a-Lago, suggesting Trump may STILL have secret documents there. Let's f*cking go!!!
@tennisabstract : tennisabstract just got a shout-out from Jim Courier on the tennis channel! Check out the commentary about midway through the game at 1-1 in the first set.
@andyroddick Can we find a sample clip showing the benefits of this angle that doesn't include hard-on-the-eyes overhead form? Don't know that player, and mean no offense -- maybe he's nursing a sore shoulder?
@andyroddick At the old grandstand at the US open, I was sitting courtside. After an ace, I said to the guy sitting next to me "I couldn't even see that ball!" The returner looked up at me and said "You should try it from here." ;-). Now we can - on TV!
@Yessrao@guytassell@andyroddick@RobKoenigTennis You're forgetting about one huge beauty of going to big tournaments: side courts! Watch pros from just a few feet away. No increased fee. Amazing that this isn't promoted more as a reason to buy a ticket.
@JasonIsbell Thanks, Jason, for highlighting one of the biggest problems in communicating the realities of Covid: huge swaths of people can't think in terms of probabilities. Lots of well documented research on this. This woman actually thinking she's right about this is a prime example.
@avc What do you consider to be the "nonsense" in the NYT, Fred? Not meaning to be the least bit snarky, and I'm not trying to defend the NYT. Just wondering what a thinking person thinks are the NYT's deficiencies (as opposed to what a knee jerk "lame stream media!" decrier thinks)
@BenRothenberg Three reasons: 1) who won Madrid is dog bites man. Happens every year. To most people: yawn. This, however, is different. 2) it's a legitimately fascinating issue that raises tons of interesting issues, 3) Osaka is cool.
@tennisabstract The Birthday Problem applied to tennis! Right up your alley, @tennisabstract! But since it only takes 187 people in a group to have a >50% probability that four of them share a bday, we shouldn't be surprised that four pros were born this day, right?
@12tonevideos This "feels" bad because we're conditioned to expect that a cover will have at least SOMETHING that differentiates it musically from the original. This one ain't got nuthin new besides the harshed up vocals, which feel kinda forced and strained and cringy next to the pretty orig.
