    The Other Side of the Coin...

    Modern commentatoes talking about the classic game. Talking about Borg and McEnroe of course.



    There's a lot of material out there. You cannot just blanket conclude it's all bad. In fact…even the worst stuff is sort of interesting to take a look at. Somebody thinks it's worth a look see.

      There's some solid stuff on YouTube. Nothing compared to tennisplayer.net, but for the lay tennis player such as myself, it's not all bad.

      There are some exceptions though.... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3n...4sOKwMq3PIUcwg

      Whooped this douchbag twice. Worst instruction I've ever come across. Guy is a complete poser.

        Yep. Or as Will Rogers said, "It ain't what you don't know that usually gets you, but what you know that just ain't so."

                The guy was crazy on and off the court. A total head case! I beat him the 1st time we played and bagel'd him in one of our sets. He insists on a rematch so I whoop his *** again. After that all I heard from him was, "Blah, blah, blah." His instruction on YouTube is a joke.

                  He had success coaching Jennifer Capriati, didn't he? Or is that just my imagination and it was someone else.

                      I found this video to be extremely interesting…but that's not to say that others wouldn't denigrate it.
                      Excellent vid. His video and ideas have been brought up before in a previous thread. He was a bit OCD when it came to purposeful practices and charting and tracking them. I can appreciate that.

                        Nope…not this time. This guy has quite a bio. He may be working in the Bay area as well. A virtual hot bed for tennis gurus. Previously he served a stint with none other than "Slick" Rick Macci.



                        Just My Imagination…The Temptations



                        Ooo
                        Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by.
                        I say to myself, you're such a lucky guy.
                        To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true.
                        Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to me.

                        But it was just my 'magination, running away with me.
                        It was just my 'magination, running away with me.

                        (Soon) Soon we'll be married and raise a family. (Oh, yeah)
                        A cozy little home out in the country with two children, maybe three.
                        I tell you, I can visualize it all. This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems.

                        But it was just my 'magination, once again.
                        Running away with me.
                        Tell you it was just my 'magination,
                        Running away with me.

                        [Paul:] Every night on my knees I pray.

                        Dear Lord, hear my plea.
                        Don't ever let another take her love from me.
                        Or I will surely die. Hmm

                        (Her love is) heavenly.
                        When her arms enfold me.
                        I hear a tender rhapsody.
                        But in reality, she doesn't even know me.

                        Just my 'magination, once again.
                        Running away with me.
                        Oh, tell you it was just my 'magination,
                        Running away with me.

                        I never met her but I can't forget her.
                        Just my 'magination,
                        Ooo yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                        Running away with me.

                        Ooo, just my 'magination running away with me.
                        She's in my mind and hard to find.
                        Just my 'magination...
