The Heat Was On

TennisTitan came away with a split decision at the conclusion of play at Kinsley this warm, muggy Saturday. The 'boorish blowhard' paired with George 'Chemist' Hauss in their (1-6) blowout at the hands of Rob 'Jersey Bomber' Briscoe and "Der Klugemeister, Bob Kluge. The Titan was smart enough to jettison the 'Chemist' in his second set whose 'deli man slice' must have been left aboard the Carnival Cruise he just completed, for the opportunity to hit astride the 'testy Teuton' in their (6-3) triumph over 'JB'/'Chemist.' The snippy nephew of the 'pompous prevaricator' suggested that his fortunes went down hill when he borrowed Titan's yellow war stick for sets 2 and 3. 'Kraut'/'JB' were rolled (1-6) when the Mellow One, Dave Lipscomb subbed for TT in the middle set salvaging the 'Chemist' sea sick morning. "Your play was very up and down this morning" taunted Titan, as George turned pale and ashen. "I'm really sick of you" complained the 'deli man.' How fair is that. Seven days of non-stop talk from my wife in confined quarters. Then I come here and have to listen to you, Titan. I can't wait to go back to work" "But George" interrupted the 'Jersey Bomber,' at least you are not related to him.
