Under the Bright Lights
Monday, August 28th, 2006I have other posts rattling in my brain—books I’ve read, movies I’ve rented, and so on. But tonight it’s all about my annual obsession with USOpen tennis underneath the stadium lights at Flushing Meadows.
Agassi’s just dropped his first set and I can tell I’ll be up late tonight. If my boy Andre’s gonna pull this victory out, I want to root him on for every last second of the way.
If this instead (and alas) turns out to be his final match, I need to bear witness. I have been watching this man and loving his game for all my adult life—-and for all of his, too.
