Where was the fire today?

TennisTitan and 'Prez' paired again this date against 'Irish' Gallagher and 'Gimpy Knees' Cruz. GK/Irish put out the fire in set 1, taking it 6-3 before succumbing to TT/'Prez' in the night cap, 4-6. Titan notes that Prez' play was most likely affected by his tardy arrival at the YTC, preventing him from participating in any warm-up. However, neither Prez' consistency nor Titan's serve was as lethal this week as it had been last week. Gimpy Knees was determined to play better than he had last week against TT, and indeed he did. Titan still controlled the doubles alley effectively but GK met with greater success at net and on his own service. 'Irish' play was sufficient to negate Prez' hustle and endurance advantages. In retrospect, this match was very evenly played with neither side able to dominate and the results so indicate.
