E P I C
Today: Rewarded for being a tennis fan. As heartbreaking as those last five minutes were, I can't help but be pleased with this, with blowing scores of records out of the water, with an old hack emerging as a formidable, respectable, and lovable tennis force, with McEnroe rabbiting on an on to fill the blessed silence with his largely useless commentary, with family constantly placing and breaking bet upon bet, with Benny echoing my joy and my disgust from afar, with 138mph second serves, with nerves ground down to their bitter nubs after a THIRTY-GAME LONG fifth set, and finally, with this rare, beautiful, unbridled enthusiasm for nothing but tennis.
