12 for the Love
All Harrisburg BackblastsJuly 27th, 2018
A busy work schedule along with fire ant bites allowed YHC to post ONLY once prior to today. So when the Q was available, YHC wanted to kick his own ass (along with any willing PAX). Being a fan of tennis and having played a good bit as a youngster, the fenced in area looked to be an ample spot for some “0 Love”. Love in tennis is defined as: At the beginning of the game, when both sides have no score, the game is love–love because in tennis, love means having a score of zero or nil. … Others theorize that love arose from the French word for “egg,” l’oeuf, because a zero on a scoreboard resembles an egg.
Well, I ain’t French, this wasn’t the grass courts of Wimbledon, only a concrete jungle that provided the proper grounds for an AM beat down.
