Lastly, I don't know if any of you are tennis fans at all, but I've been a fan since I was a kid (Bjorn Borg and Ivan Lendl were my guys), and I still follow along at least as far as Grand Slam events go. But has anyone else noticed how unwatchable the shriek-fest known as the Women's Tennis Association has become? It's just brutal. It's not everybody, and it has been going on for awhile, since Monica Seles began shrieking-away back in the 90s, but if you end up watching, say Maria Sharapova vs. Serena Williams?.......keep the aspirin handy. 10 or 15 minutes of that and you'll be begging to blast some Yoko Ono tunes at full blast. I can't believe the officials of the WTA haven't made any effort to curb this nonsense. Note to women on the WTA tour: Relax ladies....you're just hitting a tennis ball over a net....you're not giving birth right in the middle of Center Court, so tone down the volume....PLEASE!!!
