"Titan, you're no Federer!"

And to that TennisTitan says 'Amen!' Your Titan awoke at 2:30 AM this morning in anticipation of watching 'Fed' do his thing against Djokovic at the Australian Semis. Unlike the premier men's tennis player of this era the 'bombastic bloviator' was able to do his thing against his arch nemesis in singles at the Tarpon Tennis and Sail Club. At 9:30 AM Titan engaged George 'Genealogist' Pratt in three sets and administered a whipping that made Djokovic' beat-down against Sir Roger look tame. Titan ran the table (6-3, 6-1, 6-2) in a two hour marathon that had the snow birds at the revered Pinellas County tennis facility clammoring for more. Titan had pop on the serve and limited jump to the ball effectively keeping his better conditioned opponent off balance throughout the match. As the boys met at net Titan graciously invited his defeated tennis host and aficianado out to lunch at the Lucky Dill restaurant in nearby Palm Harbor to celebrate the 'Genealogist' birthday. George opined, "Titan Lake Tarpon has heretofore always been famous for its large mouth bass. Today, I decree, we add another syllable. Lake Tarpon (Tennis and Sail) is now infamous for its Large Mouth Bastard."
