Thank you, Jesse!

"Thomas Oh, Kia’s ineffable representative, was so moved by what he’d seen that he kept his speech down to a few minutes, instead of its usual hour."

Priceless.

Cheers

^ Ha, Ha - I laughed at that too. Quality blog as per usual from Jesse.

There are more than a few gems in there, for example:

"Boris Becker insisted when probed that he would never concede any side of a draw is easier than the other, but then the words that tumble out of Becker’s mouth often bear no trace of a supervising intellect. Perhaps they should have probed him more thoroughly, or with a sharper implement."

"Although physicists have yet to isolate the mechanism by which this works, injured players on some occasions transform into a kind of localised gravity-well, sucking every ball inexorably towards them."

"By the same token, those insisting that Nadal was not injured are certainly wrong, and in many cases have taken their insistence to contemptible lengths." (Edit: At least around here, thankfully, that seems to have stopped.)

Thanks, Jesse!
