Non tennis talk goes here.
Quick shout out to fellow Warriors fans – this time they didn’t give up their 3-1 lead. Amazing season by GSW.
I was sure they would lose that game. Glad they didn’t. And glad I survived the parade in Oakland :))) (was prepared better than two years ago).
RZ & Danica,
BIG Warrior fan here. Watched most of the games all year long. Was a great run and so fun to watch. Curry, KD, Dray and Clay did a solid this year and the bench with Livingston and Mcgee were awesome. DIdn’t make it to the parade(Danica!!!) but watched the whole thing on TV.
Gotta say also I was a little shaken @ 3-1 also ( deja vu ) but they came through in grand fashion. So happy they won it from cry baby Le bron ( shoulda won it last year! ).
@Danica – glad you got to go to the parade. I’m sure it was a lot of fun.
@Skeezer – KD was a good addition to the team. I’m not a huge basketball fan, but I really enjoy watching the Warriors play. They clearly work on their plays, and when Curry is on, it’s like watching a video game.

Way to go, Andy!
Yeah M!…makes me love him even more!!
Boo Golden State Warriors…… still sour grapey over KD…….Just can’t help myself…. liked KD better than Westbrook….Russell is an awesome player but not a fave……stinky attitude ….a show off…and his favorite word is the f-bomb……hate that he does that and children watching…..of course he’s not the only one. He is definely a force to be reckoned with on the hardwoods, but I miss Durant!
One more thing….. I used to love Curry …….but he’s turning in to a real egotistical brat…..and Green…..I won’t go there. They got a great team, won’t take him that away from them….but a guy from the Oklahoma Thunder put the icing on the cake! KD got what he wanted……I don’t like arrogance in any sport…..that’s why I can do w/o Russell Westbrook ok…….Rant over…….
Sorry you guys for misunderstanding :((. Seems like I was not clear enough. :'(
I didn’t attend the Warriors parade, I just knew how to navigate around downtown Oakland this time to get to work on time ;). Two years ago, I worked in Berkeley and was late. This year, not only that I was smarter, but the City of Oakland organized everything better. So I reached San Francisco with no problems.
Btw, days later, now more than a week later, you can still see yellow, blue and white confetti on the streets of Oakland :)
@Danica
“now more than a week later..”
I know. I am still seeing car flags all around the bay area freeways! YAY!
This should be and “on Topic” Topic(Gotta believe Tennis X will do a story about this):
It’s on! Wait till Serena has the babe!. Till then the war of words will continue….lol.
lol Tursunov…
just read that in 1998, the world number 203 german Karsten Braasch beat both Williams sisters; he got rid of Serena (16 years old) in the first set by 6-1 and Venus in the second by 6-2
and this links with the question of whether men and women should be paid the same in professional tennis; I think maybe not, because the men generate more interest, and money in tickets, television advertising…
If it were the other way round, women should earn more, maybe.
I suppose that for example Simon Biles eans more than her parallel in masculine gender on gymnastics, at diverse events
