Status Updates From String Theory: David Foster...

Foster writes what he thinks:
Aggassi's balls look more like Borg's would have had Borg been on daily steroids & methamphetamines & hitting every single fucking ball just as hard as he could...He hits as hard as anybody who's ever played tennis. So hard you almost can't believe it if you're there by the court. He looks scrawny and faggy. Incredible to see play in person but that doesn't make me like him any better.

"John McEnroe wasn't that tall, and he was arguably the best serve & volley man of all time...an exception to pretty much every predictive norm there was. At his peak he was the greatest tennis player...ever—the most talented, the most beautiful, the most tormented: a genius. For me watching McEnroe don a polyester blazer and do stiff lame truistic color commentary for TV is like watching Faulkner do a Gap ad."

Wow, I sure like Wallace's writing -- enough to be tempted to check out his INFINITE JEST. Over 1000 pages! No, not going to happen.
