Stealing Our Tennis
I was hanging out with a bunch of guys watching the US Open on television the other week. We were watching the women's game (no comment) between Venus Williams and Jelena Jankovic when one of the guys said, "Man, I'm getting tired of all these foreigners coming over here and stealing our sports."
I looked over at him but said nothing. He continued, "When they gonna learn tennis is our sport and we're the best at everything."
That prompted me to say something derogatory. "John," I said, "please stop being such a redneck."
He looked at me in a redneck way, throwing out redneck vibes in waves, then said, "What're you talkin' about?"
