McEnroe Tossed From Geriatric Tennis Tourney

The rollercoaster that has been John McEnroe’s emotions over his tennis career is volatile to say the least. He’s certainly best known for his temper tantrums, but I feel like recently, his announcing has kind of changed the general perception of his behavior/attitude.

If that’s true, it probably won’t be that way for long, though. Eric McErlain at FANHOUSE nets the news that Johnny Mac is back to his old tricks, having just gotten tossed out of the Hall of Fame Champions Cup, which essentially amounts to a senior citizens’ tennis tournament. Jack. Pot.

You Cannot Be Serious - John McEnroe Needs One

Here’s video, courtesy Brian at AWFUL ANNOUNCING, of our appearance on Fox Business Channel yesterday:



The show was located literally at a bar in the Waldorf Astoria hotel. Our kinda production. Though the beers were $9.75. Felt like we were at Madison Square Garden for a moment.

Speaking of MSG, after the show we went to the Steve Winwood-Eric Clapton concert at the World’s Most Famous Arena. Great show, Clapton left us speechless. But the highlight of the night was as we were backstage before the show. Read more…

McEnroe’s Son Causes Racket Outside NYC Club

The son of John McEnroe easily loses his temper? You can’t be serious!

The NEW YORK POST’s PAGE SIX spots the offspring of the teed-off tennis star causing a racket outside a West Side club.

20-year-old Sean McEnroe was trying to ace his way into the Pink Elephant club, but was getting no love from the men out front. So the soured son started double-faulting with the doormen and cursing them out, yelling, “Oh, bouncers - really good job. You’re f—ing losers!

After the argument, Sean then fittingly “stumbled backward and fell into a pile of garbage bags.”

Obviously, young McEnroe was pretty trashed that night.
