Kissing the Four Corners
I just have to tell you, man: I love watching Andre Agassi play tennis —and he just played one hell of a three and a half hour match against a very classy young man named Marcos Baghdatis. Wow!
I’ve watched this man play for probably twenty years —and I’ve gone from thinking he was just some super-talented punk with a flair for flair to truly respecting him as a person and an athlete. I root for Andre Agassi like no other tennis player.
Andre’s about eight months my junior, but a real inspiration and a man to look up to. Not that I was ever going to be anything like an athlete, but it is a real point of pride with me to watch him succeed at the highest level of his calling. It’s a vicarious thrill. And I’m really proud of him.
Keep on livin’, Andre. See you this weekend.
