Ban moans and groans from professional tennis.

[Cotton1]

Stop.

Especially in the women's game, grunts and groans are nothing but obnoxious distraction, being their only intent. These annoying sounds command the central focus of attention for spectators. Get rid of them. Ban all player gut sounds from the game, and heavily fine violators. It's unsportsmanlike, unlady-like, unsexy and stupid.

Carry on.

Exactly. Monica Seles started that nuisance and countless other players parroted it. Not only is it nerve wracking but the opposing player loses much of the ability to hear how the grunting players ball leaves the racquet.

[Captain Obvious]

Nobody, idiot. Those are the reasons for banning it. Real cute. Now I'm all confused and $#@!.

I got so tired of hearing it this morning, I turned off the Australian Open. Even if you aren't watching and are in another room, the gut farts carry throughout the house. "Augggggghhhh!" "Oooooghhh!" "Augggggghhhh!" "Oooooghhh!" "Augggggghhhh!" "Oooooghhh!"

"Click!"

I win. Game. Set. Match.

Sitting on his ass, complaining that a rigorous game causes athlete's to make noises.

Have another container of cake frosting.

In my lifetime, tennis was played wearing white and only white outfits, and there was no grunting, groaning or farting allowed. Now, apparently only the spectators are required to keep their yaps shut.

That's some real progress there, comrade.

White and only white.

Them were the days, weren't they?

I actually have rabbit ears on one of my TVs- I cut the cable cord awhile back.

They work great

I don't blame you.

Yes, there is much to be said about etiquette in sports.

So you could deem it antisocial? Nah, I just won't watch women's tennis. Bras are getting too thick anyway.

Your cousins in eastern Tennessee teach you how to hold an antenna for best reception?

Same.

Comcast bill went from $280 to $100 and the picture is actually better than cable.
