My affair with Andre


I've been spending my nights in bed with Andre Agassi. Sometimes Carmela joins us. I'm enjoying every second of his autobiography, Open. Being loosely connected to tennis ( yes, the understatement of the day), this confirms what I actually know about the development and life of a professional tennis player. And man, it's tough

I remember Agassi as a kid, his mullet and fashion choices. The epitome of what was wrong in fashion in the 80's. To my surprise, while reading, I have discovered a gentle,kindred,tortured soul. For those who have no idea what to give to the sports nut, don't hesitate and give this jewel of a book.

Happy Holidays!
