Talk About Tennis 2.0

I like the lines people, and the challenge system made it for some entertaining moments waiting for the replay and the final decision to be announced.
I guess to each his own

I did too, but I didn't like the calls that were shown on television that were wrong but the player didn't challenge, and now I don't like the delays when a simpler system exists.

This bat is getting on my nerve. Is there a way to turn it off?

No. Your only hope is to send it to Wuhan.

I see what you did there...

Speaking of Wuhan, Ben has started his own service - this article is free and talks about the Chinese swing and the weariness of the players on said swing.

You can disable Java Script and then it will not work. I believe you can disable JS for this website only.
Sorry it is bugging you. But I thought it would be fun for October, and Halloween.

I was wondering why the site was acting weird for me today. I assume it's trying to load the bat and being blocked by my work.

I have enough troubles with this website at work that I just want it to work... I don't need anything fun

If one more person reports issues, I will turn it off. No need to make it a nuisance for the users.
But I like it too.

For me, my work seems to try to block anything other than text on the page now because of the bat... all those embedded tweets / posts aren't loading. But my work has made this whole page a pain to use as it is (I have to relogin multiple times daily), so that's no big surprise.

Very disappointing that this tennis parasite is advertised here.

Ben's done a lot of good work in tennis journalism in a time where the number of people covering the sport is shrinking, and also he got his start with this message board.

And I have said it before. This forum is NOT a safe space.
In the same fashion that I will respect your right to call somebody a tennis parasite and there is no way I would even consider a reprimand (because it is aimed at a public figure), Ben and anybody else is free here to post his opinions and pieces.

And this is NOT about Great tennis journalism
But I think it is funny.
I know nothing about swimming. But I suspect that is not Kate Douglass.
