Congrats, and good win over me in the semis, I was hoping for a little bit tougher of a match.

you must as your out of shape player pudges around after balls, you should tell him to lay off the fudge.
I find it interesting that almost all of the original players (besides maybe Agassi) are all very capable on clay. Then the newer players (besides Stevos) are all so slow.

I think I am directly in between the newer and older, and I wanted to be more like you guys, so I kind of took after your strategy a bit more. Everyone put a lot into mental and movement, so I did as well to keep up, I think jbors was the big shifter though.

Yeah I went with the big groundies.
Its funny you should say that I am a fat slob and out of shape, because in real life I am exactly opposite, as most (serious) tennis players are.

lol. I just think it's funny how it all worked out. The first generation, the faster, able to keep the rallies going. Then there's the oddball Stevos who is inbetween. Then the younger players who are more aggressive and have very good volleys as a general rule (I make fun of Benchwarmer with his volleys. From the second half of Season 3 until now 95% of his training was 'Hey PSALT, I want to fix up my volleys today).
