A game that is better than everything else. Unlike baseball where you can sit for most of the time, tennis players actually do something and don't sit there like fatties. It requires strength, speed, agility, and mental toughness. Also, we can yell at officials all we want, just ask John Macenroe.

The best sport ever! Where you hit a ball over a net and try to beat your opponent. There are many different strokes. For example, groundstrokes, vollies, overheads, serves, approach shots, etc. Grab a tennis racket, a tennis court, and a few tennis balls and you're ready to play tennis!

n. A sport that involves either one on one matches or tag-teaming for a 2 on 2 match. Requires massive amounts of eye-hand coordination and stamina because unless you're playing doubles, you are on your own running around a court for several hours after balls that fly as a fast as a paintball. Tennis is considered a "gentleman's" sport, so gloating, taunting or showing signs of frustration is often looked down upon. To add to the "gentleman" aspect of the game, spectators are to keep quiet and watch respectfully at all times, though brief clapping is acceptable. Basically, next to golf, tennis is the quietest sport in the world.
"Dude, I went to watch my friend play this tennis match the other day, but I wasn't even allowed to cheer or yell! It was pretty boring... but those tennis chicks are really hot."

A racket sport that can sometimes take hours to play, so it is therefore very tiring. Some dunce male football(soccer) players call male tennis players 'poofters', implying that they are gay, but football is played with lots of boys running around with no shirt on. Famous tennis players include Roger Federer, Nadal, and Andy Murray and Andy Roddick.
Football(soccer) player: Hey, poofter, why are you playing tennis?
Tennis player: You can hardly call me a poofter, at least I don't run around with lots of boys with no shirt on!

Awesome sport enjoyed internationally. It involves two or four players with rackets, power, technique, endurance, reflex, speed, hand-eye coordination, accuracy, balance, strategy, and skill. Most people think tennis is lame, because they can't play for crap or afford their own rackets. Also because it doesn't involve sweaty men rubbing against each other or slapping each others' butts.
