Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for January 24, 2012

His racket should be made out of steel.

Was your coach John Monroe?

These narcissist idiot tennis players is why I dispise the game; and them.

My first thought was of McEnroe.

If he does that with tennis rackets, I wonder what he does with baseball bats.

the racket is rock stardom, the guitar the judge’s gavel

if someone made a course you only needed a 7, 9, sand wedge and putter to play, i would join.

I’d ask his opponent, but I don’t want to go digging him up just for that.

“I was going to get into the rackets but my mom thought that would be a crime.”—- Garfield.

WHAT’S ALL THE RACKET IN HERE???

Always helps to get in a little practice.

Winners often play a rougher game than normal folk. At least in their heads. Given that tennis was born to keep knights in shape in the French winters, we ought to expect some acting out…

I had a friend Geoff, who was just like that, but after a loss.

If it worked for McEnroe, why not?

oh come on, Hart and Parker had plenty of anachronisms back in the day too.

I heard McEnroe nickname for his first son was..

“Seriously..ffing Seriously.”

I read once that a golfer got irked and swung a wood against a tree. The wood broke and it recoiled against him and the broken shard pierced his chest. End of tantrum.

Fink’s hair in the first panel cracks me up.

and “The Who” is playing in the background.

He must have made a big racket… : PP
