Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Nine

  "No Controversy" by jpg Researching Max Purcell.  Has a Wimbledon title in doubles.  No controversy to speak of, but he's only won a third of his singles matches for his career.  Michael Mmoh's got wins against Zverev, Auger-Alassime, and Hubie.  Both 26 years of age, Purcell's won $3.5 million, Mmoh's at $2.5 million.  Not bad. "Whataburger Sucks" by jpg TTop was curious about the knife.  This dude spent 5 years in the Mojave desert, said he lost his sense of reality, said he'd defend his country again if he had to, I thought he wanted something to go down.  Told TTop the knife was for killing humans, if needed.  He wore his pistol in a holster for everyone to see.  *The double meat burger at the TX Burger in Fairfield, Texas was 5 of 5 stars.  Deep down, we all know Whataburger sucks. "1st Victim" by The Mayor Dumb ass.  Loses the element of surprise and becomes the 1st victim.  Add to it, he is carrying an oversi...

Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Eight

  "Brother Basher" by jpg  They fought a red, muddy, blood war.  Darderi has kept his relative cool.  Took down #2 seed Cerundolo in a blasting, bruising, heap.  Never saw a line call he liked, chunked his racquet, channelled his anger.  The brother basher. "Nebbiolo Buona" by peoplesDuke That's a proper pizza and wine dinner.  Barolo is nebbiolo buona. "Edsel" by Fractional CEO Played last night, pushed off with my right foot and felt a snap. Barely can walk. Like I said, Edsel.  Medial head gastrocnemius tear, also called tennis leg. "Balken Culture" by AJ So glad you went.  What a great trip.  Keep us updated.  Wish I could go right now as I get a lunch break.  Past couple of years this is exactly when I've driven down.  Nenad Zimonjic is like whaaaa april fools in balkan culture is every day, my man!  "Cat Notes" by jpg  Cat notes.  The perfect cat and the cake, but lilies are deadly, shuts down their or...

Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Seven

  "No Accidental Badass" by jpg Francisco Cerendolo's a big threat to win it.  Maybe the next great South American player, Chilean Garin won here.  Has the background, he's no accidental badass.  Darderi beat his brother, Juan Manuel, last month at the Chile Open.  Payback, Argentine style.  Could get ugly. "My Prime" by Fractional CEO I essentially didn't pick up a racquet since 1988. I think my prime is ahead of me. "Yellow, Pink, And Blue" by TTop Yellow, pink, and blue, the colors of the popping road. "Stick Curl" by King The Todd Some people with bad knees stick curl so they don't even have to bend down.  My curling peak is still ahead of me. "I'll Check My Notes" by jpg Good God, they let Benoit Paire back in the tournament.  Biggest quitter I've ever seen on the red mud of Houston.  As I recall, a complete nonchalant loss on a Thursday in '18 or '19.  I'll check my notes.  Pulling for Kovacevic...

Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Six

"21st Full Moon" by King James What's the plan for Houston? The 1st Sunday after the post March 21st full moon has happened, so I'm in. Just found out today that it's now Transgender Day, but no need to get me started... The Jetta will ride, just lmk. Who's all going? "We Are On Automatic" by jpg King James, we are on automatic!  We'll depart Dallas around 6am Wednesday, squeeze out before any major jams.  We'll go directly to the tournament, usually around 11 am.  Or so.  We go from there. "Got Got" by AJ The Canadian kid I like was seeded 1 in qualies and got got by TX boy Mitch Krueger.  Kruegs is good indoors but also decent on this red stuff.  Have a great time!  Y'all are Leaving Wednesday? "Rafa Is Done" by peoplesDuke Was talking with Ian Dempster's father today.  Ian's now director of tennis at Cameron Moore Tennis Academy in NC.  He told me to watch Marozsan. Playing great.  Can't wait for Roland ...
