The The other day I went up to the tennis center here in town. We have one of those.

This is a really cool place. I like all the people there and I decided that I was

going to hit on the ball machine. They got these robots and you throw like 200

balls in the hopper and it's just

boom, with that really satisfying tennis ball sound

and it moves them around kind of at random and you work on your swing

and it's a good workout you get all sweaty listen to an

audio book or whatever then I don't remember how many buckets in I was but I kind

felt like I'm a little bit sore I should shut it down before this bucket's

Here comes another one over to my left boom no problem flagged that tossed it into the cart I'm making little tosses like I'm turning double plays it was so

fump here comes another one got it boom got it and they're coming pretty fast at high

speed and a pretty quick rate of fire and I tell you what this worked for like the first 10 balls and I was feeling really good about myself and then maybe around ball 11 I got one I fielded it I flipped it over to the cart but I missed it kind of bounced out rattled around and

rolled back at me and so now I got a ball under my feet. I'm like I better pick that up

Foop. Oh, that's right they They keep coming. I don't get a break.

So I reached up, I tried to field it with my left, but it kind of bounced off my hand and now it's rolling around at my feet.

I'm like, I gotta get both of these real quick. I'm gonna, I got to get both of these real
