Agree on the rallies not being as prominent. Your best bet is watching a women's match between two defensive players or Nadal against the right opponent.

Indeed. I do enjoy watching the women’s game for that very reason. I also forgot to mention Ivan Lendl. During the 80s watching him play was great!

I took a tennis class in high school. I was never that good because I have poor depth perception. I did have an ace serve that got me 2nd place in my only tennis tournament which transferredwell to racquet ball.

Tennis is fun to watch but women's volleyball is much more "entertaining" to watch in my humble opinion.

Bump ...

Figured I'd circle back in since we are in early November.

Bucs & Chiefs ... 1,2 power rankings

... check.

Oh and Cleveland ... check. It appears OBJ is no longer with the team as of this morning & last in the AFC North. Check.

Good old power rankings

Not to mention Cowboys at 17 and the cardinals at...25! May as well be throwing darts.
