A good luck post
I write about a lot of sports on here, but I've always focused on the professional, non-familial version of that. I'm going to change that for one day at least.
My brother is going to the state tennis tournament. And I'm pretty proud of the kid. His name is Alex, he's pictured above, and he's a junior in high school. He has a killer forehand and a super-consistent serve. He's also cat-like quick on the court. However, the backhand could probably use some work, if I'm being honest here.
His record on the year is 21-4, with two of those losses coming against his own teammates from Galesburg at the conference and sectional meets (the two teams played each other in the championship match -- a rare accomplishment). The other two losses were against powerhouse suburban teams from near Chicago.
It was always my goal in high school to make it to state, but I came up one win short in my senior year. Now I can live vicariously through Alex. That's something, right?
So, best of luck to Alex tomorrow morning when he faces off against Niles West.
Note: I would be going to state to watch, but I have contracted dysentery and can't make the trip.

Fuck Niles West. Go Alex.
That's the spirit, Ed.
Ah, yes.
Ended up losing to Niles West in a close match; pounded Lake Forest; beat Greenville; lost to a team from near Peoria to finish state at 2-2.
Not too bad for a first-time state appearance.
But yeah. No Niles West upset, but I'll take the other results.
Your brother needs a haircut.
I don't want to do this, but I'm taking this off my bookmarks toolbar. Is that ok?
