Mosquito Coast

"Titan, in my country of Ecuador, they call me the 'Mosquito from Quito" quipped Pappi at the end of his set with TennisTitan at Kinsley this afternoon. The Mosquito/TT trailed Vladimir 'Russkie' Kartsev/John 'Neck' Manzi love-three before the 'boisterous blowhard' got his game in gear. Thirty minutes later the talented tandem closed out their rousing (6-4) comeback victory against a bewildered 'Neck' and the befuddled Russian immigrant. For the second set your 'bloated bloviator' was joined by Bill 'Electro Lux' Ching against the split tandem of 'Neck' Manzi (4 games) -Joe 'Gimpy Knees' Cruz (6 games) pairing with 'Russkie.' Titan served it out at (6-4) sending the 'egomanical egotist' home ecstatic. As the boys met at net for their post match pictures 'Electro Lux' opined, "Titan, maybe you should have played a third set today. It would have been great to see if you could have won with the 'Neck' as you partner. To wit Titan fired his fourth ace of the day, "Bill, that's a stretch, even I couldn't make."
