JSU Tennis Reunion

Posted in Family, Friends, Sports, tagged , , on September 23, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

Last Saturday, we had a tennis reunion at Jacksonville State University.  It has been 20 years since I graduated from JSU…can you say OLD?  It was great to see all of my old teammates and meet many of the current and former players.  JSU tennis is celebrating 60 years.  I had not been back to JSU in 15 years, and I wanted Joelan and Julia to see our old stopping grounds.

It was especially great to see Coach Bailey.  He hasn’t changed a bit.  I love when he starts a story with, “Dawg, you’re not going to believe this…”.  Big Dawg was my nickname in college and apparently, no one knows my real name.  It was great to catch up with everyone and share old stories.  We will probably do it again when Coach Bailey retires and is inducted into the JSU Hall of Fame.

Here are a few pics from the reunion:

2 Year Old Tennis Prodigy…the next Chris Evert?

I have joked many times (probably too much) about Jessie being a tennis pro.  Is she the next Chris Evert, Tracy Austin, Jennifer Capriati, Venus Williams, Melanie Oudin, or Maria Shishkina?  In my “master plan”, I have her slated to win Wimbledon in 2026.

As this video shows, she does not have much of a vocabulary (I.e. Kate Hollandsworth), but she can hit a forehand.  Priorities.

I am reposting this video blog from a couple of years ago, because I am taking some time off for Labor Day. I hope everyone enjoys the day off and is able to spend some quality time with family and/or friends.  God is good!
