The US Open is already here, so NOW is the time to come make your picks in the US Open Bracket Challenge sponsored by Avery Tennis.
Little known facts:
1. It's free.
2. It's fun.
3. The Grand Prize is a new Avery M3 Control racquet.
4. Do I need any more reasons?
5. It's more fun to follow the tourney when you have points at stake.
6. Bragging rights.
7. OK, I'm all out...
Come fill in your bracket, more info here.

Later in the week we can see if next Sunday would be good!

- Hi Christine,
I have been trying to go a couple times a week. I have been going over to Bayview Park in the evenings if I can conjure up a partner.
They are well lit and stay open till 10.
I like to go after dark so its not so hot!
I can usually do Mon, Tues, Weds, or Thurs. evenings if you are interested in meeting up!

- Hi! Welcome to the "community-based" tennis social network which connects tennis players, fans, coaches, and you. We created this place in December and it has been a wild ride ever since - we've gone viral and now we're "almost famous".
What can you do here?
At Tennisopolis, you can:
- meet other players. Here's a primer on how to find partners.
- join a Group. Members have started over 190 Local Groups (and other types of Groups too.) Search for one in your area, or start your own.
- follow the pros. There are over 500 blog posts on Tennisopolis. Have a good read, or write your own.
- improve your game. Get tips in the Forum and check out video lessons.
- post your own Videos or embed your favorites from youtube.
- add your own Photos.
- and just hang out and connect with great people.
To get started, please upload a photo or avatar for yourself (if you haven’t already.) Whether it's of you, your dog, or your racquet it doesn't matter, but it helps people remember you. You can also personalize Your Page with pictures, links, RSS feeds, colors and more here.
Thanks to everyone inviting their friends, we now have over 12,000 members and we're growing by 90 new members a day. Invite yours too!

Kindergarten is an adventure. My girls (twins) just entered 2nd. Hopefully, he's got a good teacher. That goes a long way at that age.

David Patterson said… - I think Matt plays with one of the pros over at Roger Scott. He definitely would tell you who has the best reputation in the area.
In regards to school starting my 5 year old son just started kindergarten this week. At least I have my 17 month old baby girl to still entertain me at the house. I'm a stay at home dad that works (at least 5 hours a day minimum). My wife is also off from teaching 4th grade this year.
