OMG wow Meeting
on: January 13, 2006, 07:52:26 PM
i signed on to a nearby tennis club called Will to Win (im a member at a different club) because i thought  i would check out their winter touranments. i just got an email from one of the guys on the list, and it looks like he uses his work email because it says this at the bottom as a signature:


President, Decca Music Group

www.decca.com
A UNIVERSAL MUSIC COMPANY

So i have to play this guy in a tennis match, but im just going to be shouting about singing all the time ;D

Whatever your intentions be, I don't think its good to release someone's personal particulars to the eyes of the whole world ( unless you have his/her permission).

YES! Now I can  e-mail this guy, call his telephone, fax him, and go visit his office. Cool! I can even ask him some tennis tips!

Wow, I do hope this list of FACTs are just a joke. Please, tell the world you didn't just post poor Costa's information here...

That's good. Many players here lack strategy sadly- all the unthinking kind of baseliners- bam bam bam. Except of course, for the older players, and some of the younger ones who actualy listen to their coach, haha.

Wishing you the best of luck, be sure to post and tell us how it goes!

well, the guy who ive already played and beaten in the same league has just played this guy(checked scores online) and the record guy got thrashe, so i should have an easy ride. if the going does get tough i just go serve and volley, puts the points in the bag quick. and demoralizes them aswell.

i think you should go with the poster that said 'let him win.'  whatever it takes, make him feel good.  maybe he's being extra polite to your friend and will take it out on you anyway.  ok.  try your best for the first half and then act tired the second.  then, he will know your skills and still beat you.  or do you think he only signs on winners?  hmmm.  maybe i'm wrong.
