Brett Haber

The, the, the f- the short one first.

This is, uh, Brett Haber, and, uh, I, I just feel like our friend Ben Rothenberg, who, uh, writes for Bounces, his, uh, substack.

I, I know Corby, you've-

Sure

the tennis writer.

He wrote an entire story about how the Tennis Channel can't handle the new era of, uh, of Black excellence in men's tennis.

And, uh, here is Brett Haber, formerly of SportsCenter, now of the Tennis Channel, describing the, uh, final at the Cincinnati Open.

San Rafa Matos.

Like, you know, um, like I said, the Wheresthefinal wasn't the highest, like, most live up-- You know, like you said, it didn't live up to what we thought maybe-

It wasn't as swaggy as Brett Haber wanted it.

Exactly.

Exactly.

It's, uh, 91 miles per hour.

Brett Haber was saying on the Tennis Channel broadcast that that ranks dead last among top 50 players, which, which is something that strikes me.

It really does.

Because if we rewind to just like 15 years ago, if we go back to 2011, 91 miles per hour, or sorry, 92, which is his average.

Well, let's just let the, maybe the broadcast say what it sounded like.

This is Brett Haber and Lindsay Davenport, uh, speculating about what was going on with the cup

Anna Smirnova settling down.

What is that, Lindsay?

[laughs]

And so, you know, Red Bull does-

But Brett Haber used to be the local sports guy in DC, and like, that's him being very tempered down.

That's the first time I've ever heard him do tennis.
