Public Service

City Desk did some fieldwork this weekend, giving you the most complete coverage of Saturday’s Mayoral Tennis Showdown between Anthony A. Williams and his predecessor, Marion S. Barry Jr. The match was part of the 8th annual Hart to Heart Tennis Experience, a benefit for the Southeast Tennis & Learning Center in Congress Heights.

Hart to Heart is a doubles tournament matching up juniors with adults; for the mayoral exhibition, Williams played with 12-year-old Elizabeth Means, and Barry with her sister, Sarah, 13.

UPDATE, 1:50 P.M.: Resident fuzzyball expert Huan Hsu sez: “god, somebody take aw’s racquet away from him. six double faults is not acceptable at this level. i also like how it took him the entire first tiebreak to figure out that he should keep a ball in his pocket when he’s serving.”

    This blog is as dead as my grandmother. I hate to say it but without Rees and his enemies here, there is nothing going on.

    Get the message CP, Rees could be a money maker for you like that game at a state fair where you get to throw a ball and dunk the clown.

    Please bring Rees back so I canm bash him!

    But I like his presence only because it takes away the boredom of this blog.

    Think about it, without Rees, nobody posts here!

    All of these politicos are screwed up in one way, shape or form. Sit back and have a laugh or two!
