    I just remember him having such an aggressive attitude, I’m shocked nobody gave him a backhander across his mouth. He was a tennis player not an NFL LB. He was a great player though

    One of the greatest of all time, he was unstoppable in 84. One of his only 3 losses that year was the French Open to Lendl.

    Lendl wasn't too bad either. The guy could hit a forehand winner down the line on a dead run!

    Anyone see this movie yet? Man I miss the days of Mac and Connors, and Borg, and Lendl.

    I looked and it is not at the theater near me! :/ Hope to see it someday. Johnny Mac was something special! Although the officials didn't care for him at the time. ;)B)

    Tennis channel recently has a series called 'The Ten.' Last week it was the ten greatest years of all time by a player. McEnroe's 1984 season was #6. Jimmy Connors 1974 year was at #5. He was 99-4 that year and won 15 tournaments with 3 grand slam championships.. A shame he chose to play world team tennis that year and skipped the French open. He could've been even higher on the list. Margaret Court's 1970 was #4. Martina Navratilova's 1983 was #3...she only lost one match that year. Rod Laver's 1969 season was #2. And Steffi Graf's 1988 year was ranked the best year by a player in history as she won the GOLDEN SLAM. The only player in history to accomplish the feat.
