The Rich Get Richer

TennisTitan partook in a three set affair this morning at the Yonkers Tennis Center with Ed, 'LLL' Gor, Don 'Shillelagh Man' Carmody and Perry 'Landlord' Gault. Titan paired with Triple L for the first two sets and with the 'Landlord' for the finale. TT practiced his reduced-effort game this date featuring only second serves and arching lobs in an effort to extend points and give everybody (but TT) much needed exercise. If you have read Titan's article from yesterday's match it should come as no surprise that TT paid a heavy price last evening with severe leg cramps that had him writhing on the floor for 45 minutes groping for the massager. Thanks again 'EBL'! But I did say reduced-effort! Titan/'LLL' scored easy (6-3, 6-1) victories. TT especially enjoyed the third set. TennisTitan gave adequate support to the 'Landlord' who had been heretofore overmatched. 'Lanlord' raised his game (but not his rents) as TT added some pop to serves and returns which led to a very satisfying (6-1) triumph. An ecstatic Perry commented to the Titan as he left the court, "Titan, with your help, maybe I could ask for a tax abatement and meet with success too."
