India Lose World Test Championship to a Typically Gritty New Zealand

Bad luck #IND losing Test Championship(🤷‍♀️) but #NZL is everyone's 2nd favourite team & always punch above their weight, so fair play to the Kiwis👍

Fitting that #KaneWilliamson & #RossTaylor hit winning runs

PS 6th Test Day for English "summer" or is this permanent🙏?!

What a thing to witness…can't imagine what it was for the players and his family…what athletes have to go through is sometimes impossible to truly comprehend and appreciate

Federer Fights Through to Second Week 2021 French Open


 

“You’ve got to love what you do, and I do.”

And we do, too, ya old #GOAT, we do too😭!

What a fighting win for #Federer over a spittin’ mad(ahem, 😏) #Koepfer to reach the second week at #FrenchOpen

Boy, #RolandGarros was fun while he lasted, no😑?

Seagull(, Jonathan Livingston / Chekhov's The)

Well, hello #JonathanLivingstonSeagull…

…wait, does that mean I need a philosophical? spiritual? epidemiological? re-evaluation of my life! 😱

🐥🏖 ☀️

PS. If I were the literary kind I'd make a crack about #Chekhov's #TheSeagull...but alack & alas, forsooth I am not...📚☹️

Lakers Players Play Well in Playoff-Ending Loss to Suns

PS. But definitely keep #THT, #WesMatthews(or is it Wesley?), & my favourite #Schroder 😁

PPS. Yo, #DBook, maybe not learn from frontrunnin' trashtalker #JaeCrowder🙄

PPS. Wake me up when #Nets-#Bucks winner wins #NBAFinals🥱

Lakers Getting Blown Out In Final Game vs Suns

For the love of G*d, is there a #Blazers-#Nuggets match #TNT can switch to😵‍💫?!

Sigh, let's hope #AD heals up, #LeBron gets healthy & #Lakers…

…get back #Rondo, #DwightHoward, #JaVale, #DannyGreen(miss him now #LakeShow fans😏?)…

PS. #DevinBooker's pretty good, eh?

How Djokovic Defeated Nadal 2015 French Open

Maybe I dreamt this, but didn't #Djokovic unleash a kamikaze 2nd-serve-&-volley at a pivotal moment that sealed the deal🤔?

It's this instinctive, insane #Djoker derring-do that continues to confound the streamlined greatness of #Federer & #Nadal 😁

Lakers Getting Thrashed by Suns in Game 5

Man, #TNT shoulda switched over to *insane* #Blazers-#Nuggets(the #KornheiserBowl🤣?) as soon as #Lakers gave up 11-pt lead vs #Suns in the first half…of Game 4!

Give #LeBron credit, still playing down by ~1M points👍

Sigh…there's always next year😭
