something you all should think about. Yes, PB is for all ages and it is designed so everyone can enjoy it. However, it is hard on your back and glutes. Kitchen restriction and will to spike the ball has one leaning over a lot. This happening for one game, no problem, in my Saturday league, we played for 4 hours and there was the problem. i can play 5 sets of tennis at 4.5 level and have not issues, 6 games of competitive PB and I am having issues. Yes, I am older than most but I am in good shape so take my advice. Change your stands when attacking the net. do not lean forward for too long waiting for the ball to spike and, do not be too impatient and wait for the right pop up to attack, as in one that comes to your power zone hitting area.
This may be fun to play when I'm much older, but I just can't watch this with the same enthusiasm as a good tennis match -- even with legendary tennis players playing it.
Hey.....no negative comments about McEnroe!!! His involvement in this weird court game has raised the profile !!!! All down to Agassi bringing this game to a new audience❤❤❤
Pickleball is so boring to watch, but fun to play. And I don't know of any other game where a teenager can play their grandparent and get schooled. It's a great game for families.
Johnny Mac and Agassi are just paying respect for their knees and joints: “We love tennis but are entertained by this playground game”( sports industry making a lot of 💰from this)!
With 8 knee surgeries I can no longer play tennis at the level I am used to, so this game will have to do. I do feel like it’s easier for tennis players to pick up. I hit with a lot of spin that many of the regular pickleballers don’t use. I don’t know if they don’t know how, or just don’t do it?
Skinny singles be a better watch between the two. I'm just not interested in McEnroe constantly foot faulting and throwing his paddle and phony tantrums, it's not funny anymore
Bet any of the former tennis pros in pickleball now would wreck you in tennis🤣. Just because you can’t be a top in the world anymore doesn’t mean you can’t play-Agassi looks quick out there.
I should like Pickleball, but I went to play tennis one day at my local park only to find that they put 4 pickleball courts right on top of the tennis courts. Kinda soured my interest.
I've always loved Agassi. And Blake is so handsome, like always! McE will always be McE. Glad they're having fun now that they can't play pro tennis anymore.
Lol you have any idea how much their knees hurt after a life on tour? They just can’t keep playing tennis yet still want to be active and make some money why not?
So the most buzz in pickleball are long retired pros being paid to play it. Its an okay game to play for 30 minutes or so then the low skill level makes it lose interest unlike tennis where the high skill level keeps the interest
@@firesnake1804 I’m gonna assume you were drunk when wrote this as it’s just old guys having some fun 🙂 Pickleball is absolutely fun and it is easy to play decently but hard to be really good at, just that simple.
Two legends...❤❤❤it must be hard for tennis legends to play in a tight format. And they have to control how ha4d to serve and hot❤ weird names for court and game....pickleball? Kitchen?
So this is like the Big 3 Basketball League but tennis? The once who are retired but still have that itch to play on a much lower level than what they’re used to.
I think it has to do with the ball bouncing within that zone. I think once it bounces in that area, you’re free to step in and retrieve it if need be. I think Mc was getting called because he was returning it through the air inside that area
@@iitstre_4550 Yet, as a table tennis player for many years - the sport completely failed to reach TV viewers outside China. People are not watching it although is a very complex sport that's hard to master.
I'm sorry but I just can't get into this. Tennis was my #1 sport in the 80's and 90's but this is just a watered down version of the sport. This used to be what we did to warm up - mini tennis. Some of my friends play it and love it but I'd rather play the real thing.
For some reason, someone decide to return to the original version of tennis… except there’s a reason tennis evolved 😂😂. Not to mention, if anything, this is just big ping pong… but not nearly as entertaining or skillful
Pickleball is so much fun, all ages can play and all different levels. I love it. Beats sitting on couch after work

Yaaaa.....McEnroe is great!!!! In his 60s and still rocking❤❤❤
McEnroe just playing into his stereotype is soooooo funny! The man is pure entertainment!
and we wouldnt have it any other way!!! hes the best!
I wish to be as fit and healthy as Johnny Macky when I get older. This guy is an example.
@@rafaeltmq2719 It really shows when he plays TENNIS. Probably the best of his age in the world.
ye
Same as Andre Agassi. He's in he's 50s and look how fit he looks. Also still plays tennis.
He’s got good genetics he was always a lanky guy I’m sure he still works out tho
Just take steroids
Pickleball is a lot of fun when you are playing it. McEnroe at his very best. Thanks for the video.
Isn’t it great you can have fun as you age? I love it!
Plenty of other ways to.have fun. They are getting paid a lot to promote this.rubbish
@@dougkercher3364 then don’t play or watch.
After a life of boring tennis I'm sure a fun game is refreshing
@@ImperatorZed I liked tennis a bunch but I have tons of friends on the PB court
I’d never pay to get bored with this stuff live. But someone do 🤷🏻♂️
This may be fun to play when I'm much older, but I just can't watch this with the same enthusiasm as a good tennis match -- even with legendary tennis players playing it.
Its definitely not nearly as much fun to watch as to play. It is not a great spectator sport like tennis.
This is a dark day for tennis lovers.
Yeah...
😂
End times 😢
They are in the sissi corner now😂
hey dude, everybody and I mean everybody, including you, gets old. Embrace it.
Hey.....no negative comments about McEnroe!!! His involvement in this weird court game has raised the profile !!!! All down to Agassi bringing this game to a new audience❤❤❤
Relax gentelmans, they are just having fun.
This is just for entertainment.....for fun.....lighten up haters😮😮😮😮
As an early 80's bat-tennis boy from Melbourne Australia...FINALLY, this game is gettin played by the coolkids. Rofl. I was before my time.
Pickleball is so boring to watch, but fun to play. And I don't know of any other game where a teenager can play their grandparent and get schooled. It's a great game for families.
Golf.
Basketball (to a point)
Table tennis.
Shall I keep going?
Bowling, Pool, Bocce, Cornhole
Johnny Mac and Agassi are just paying respect for their knees and joints: “We love tennis but are entertained by this playground game”( sports industry making a lot of 💰from this)!
They are rich enough to get new better knees and joints
With 8 knee surgeries I can no longer play tennis at the level I am used to, so this game will have to do. I do feel like it’s easier for tennis players to pick up. I hit with a lot of spin that many of the regular pickleballers don’t use. I don’t know if they don’t know how, or just don’t do it?
Is so great to see two awesome tennis legends having a good time playing together 👏👏👏
McEnroe seems to play better when he's in anger mode 😂
Serve and volley is his wheel house, pickleball was practically made for him
Always did 👋😊
There was definitely a few exciting scenes in this video!
Classic Mcenroe. 👌🤣
I would love to see @rogerfederer play Pickle-ball!
He would never lower himself and doesn't need the money
Watched through 4 points and that’s it. Can’t watch anymore. Grew up idolizing these tennis legends.
This isn't an airport, no need to announce your departure
@@janinemurdock2043 What a great retort. Simple, eloquent 🤌 (not being sarcastic, I just realized it might come off that way lol)
Skinny singles be a better watch between the two. I'm just not interested in McEnroe constantly foot faulting and throwing his paddle and phony tantrums, it's not funny anymore
F- tennis!! It's all PICKLEBALL now!
This is so hilarious 😂😂😂
I couldn’t resist a look, but lo and behold it was boring enough to turn off.
No one has mentioned Sharapova casually watching in the audience.
I was finally convinced to play this yesterday with friends, but WATCH it?? 💩
pickleball is a fun game to play and to watch… well, to watch when they actually play.
That Agassi humor
Just when you cannot play tennis anymore thing😂
Bet any of the former tennis pros in pickleball now would wreck you in tennis🤣. Just because you can’t be a top in the world anymore doesn’t mean you can’t play-Agassi looks quick out there.
Mac should probably just commit to the Kitchen and stay in there?
This is great!
If u get back an Ernie, call that shot a Returny
I should like Pickleball, but I went to play tennis one day at my local park only to find that they put 4 pickleball courts right on top of the tennis courts. Kinda soured my interest.

Yo who’s the ref? I’m trynna see more of her
Agassi and McEnroe only in it for the money, putting all their chips in this shit 😂😂
Haha luv this
McEnroe is trolling all of Pickleball.
The old geezer tennis .
My God this game sucks...
Is this better than paddleball?
Can someone explain to me where the foot fault is at 5:15? I don't see it.
Got dragged to the dark side.
Lol you have any idea how much their knees hurt after a life on tour? They just can’t keep playing tennis yet still want to be active and make some money why not?
McEnroe became scared of the kitchen. Even when it bounced he didnt wanna go in there!
Big pickleball money trying to buy legitimacy paying these pros to act like they like the game (not sport)
So the most buzz in pickleball are long retired pros being paid to play it. Its an okay game to play for 30 minutes or so then the low skill level makes it lose interest unlike tennis where the high skill level keeps the interest

Then tennis is a game as well. Golf.... etc..... or you can take a lap....
I find pickle ball charming but let's be honest. It's where the retired and/or those who can't cut it in tennis go.
Two legends...❤❤❤it must be hard for tennis legends to play in a tight format. And they have to control how ha4d to serve and hot❤ weird names for court and game....pickleball? Kitchen?

Best match? Are you serious? 5th grade level
Singles is bad enough but doubles on a court that size 😂
There's also doubles in ping pong ;)
@@kuyanickYeah, but even then, it’s more entertaining and far less of a liability than this. 😂
Hard to sell this ....thing
That's why they pay these guys big money
A sport for the ozempic crew to enjoy
padels better than this night mare
McEnroe :DDDD
I liked it
Video loses audio sync at 4 minute mark
I think you’re the first one to make it that far 🫡
Un mito 😂
it's like the electric cars of tennis ! :(
Solid comment😂😂
the sound is off on this video, it does not match
American tennis
In a nutshell
The guy in the white hat stepped over the line a few times. I’m not sure why she’s not calling him out. I’m confused.
I think it has to do with the ball bouncing within that zone. I think once it bounces in that area, you’re free to step in and retrieve it if need be. I think Mc was getting called because he was returning it through the air inside that area
Andre's wearing the same shoes I got for pickleball. I knew I made the right choice. :-)
You'd be better off playing pingpong!
Ping pong is superior in every way 😂😂😂.
@@iitstre_4550 Yet, as a table tennis player for many years - the sport completely failed to reach TV viewers outside China.
People are not watching it although is a very complex sport that's hard to master.
It's basically ping pong with a bigger ball and bat
McEnroe’s fake tantrum shtick every damn sport he plays is so cringe just do everyone a favor and fade into obscurity already
I'm sorry but I just can't get into this. Tennis was my #1 sport in the 80's and 90's but this is just a watered down version of the sport. This used to be what we did to warm up - mini tennis. Some of my friends play it and love it but I'd rather play the real thing.

Ah yes…a bunch of old guys occupying a tennis court with a pickleball game…🙄
no wonder tennis is a dying sport. BTW, I used to watch and play tennis back in the days, these two legendary players!
Is that pickle billy😢😢😢
Definitely not as good as tennis, but not a bad sport overall
why at 6-1, Sock left foot was inside but no foot fault ???!!! and he won the point 7-1.
Where’s Andres hair?
Sock is a pro. Unfair.
I thought you can't score if you didn't serve?
Moore Christopher Walker Brian Hernandez Elizabeth
you can not be serious....
Pickleball is an offense to people who play racquet sports.
this video seems corrupted
pickleball is not a game to be taken seriously. it's checkers.
Sad for them
Pickleball....the kitcken...yeah a very serious sport. Tennis players make pickleball look like a kids' game.
I noped out after the cringe McEnroe complaining to the ump
I guess tennis has degraded along with everything else .
Stolen content
Wait…. We are quite literally the pickleball slam its our event 😂😂😂😂😂
@@thepickleballslamOhh my bad, at least I got a response 😂
@@thepickleballslam Why didn't you Livestream this match on February 4th or make the video in February?
dislike it
indoor beach rackets... poor tennis.
Blake is the weak link
Why are they walking like they have diapers under their shorts?
Was never a fan of both of these, and least now in 2024
You might think it is easy!
I will change you a 67!
Never played the game, pro!
No,offence, this is fucking, boring!!!
Gltiched out horribly then doesnt fix
John is still a pric
Agassi was a heartthrob back in the late 80s. When did he turn into Jeff Bezos? Getting old sucks.
Another step into the bastardization of fine things
Dear sweet baby Christ. Tennis is dead.
You can hire tennis legends to play your elder activity, it's still boring to watch
The ref chick got butthurt when telling her to move up the line
Thomas Joseph Thomas Ronald Thomas Eric
McEnroe is still a punk
You should move and run in sports.. That's just a goofy game.. Like padel....
