This guy was my favorite tennis player growing up. It was not even close. Mr. Courier was just an absolute terror on the courts in the early 90's. He won four Grand Slam singles titles, two at the French Open and two at the Australian Open in a two year span.
Jim was the last man to win the Australian Open and French Open in the same calendar year, which he did in 1992.
The best thing about Jim Courier and something that made me a fan for life was that he was born like myself in South Florida hailing from Dade County himself.
This is now my Jim Courier Thread.
Part 1 of the epic showdown between Jim Courier and an aging legend in Jim McEnroe. I was only ten years old but I remember it like it was yesterday.
Jim Courier vs McEnroe - US Open 1992 - 01/13

Honestly look at these Finals records. Aside from Federer or Nadal has anyone in the last 25 years put together a few years like this guy. I am in awe.

I absolutely LOVE Anita Bryant! I mean have you ever seen a more natural beauty in her younger years than this woman. I know that Ba_Dass was not much of a fan with the Ordinance she tried to pass discrimating against the gays in San Francisco.
I have to give her some credit in the 'humour' department like Benwahwah says. Remember when she was publicly pied and she quipped......."At least it was a "fruit" pie."
Now Mr. Fowler when you say "I'm a big fan of her work" Do you mean her singing career or her crusade against homosexuality?
You seem like a straight laced fella but I Just want to know for sure who I'm talking to here. I dealt with enough poofs over at EY.com.
Always the Ladies Man Jim Courier bed MANY women during his playing years and since retirement. It's nice to see he settled down after approaching Wilt Chamberlain type numbers of sexual encounters.
Word round the campfire is his past sexual partners have given the nickname "Big Red" not only due to his Som Pong like ginger hair but the fact that he has an ENORMOUS penis.

I am actually pretty "confounded" like Som- Pong after too much Ya-Dong that this "ironic" thread didn't take off and reach 10 pages.
When you sit back and think about how many posters @ EY.com have regularly played with, smacked, groped, fondled and even kissed "tiny yellow balls" and the various sacks that encompass them it's pretty surprising to say the least.
"I am a HUGE fan of Family Guy and it's use of biting satire, bizarre juxtapositions, non-sequiturs, irrational or absurd situations and expressions of nonsense to get across it's comedic and IMPORTANT message."

*Pats self on back*
*dodges tomatoes thrown by Masato and GMB13, picks up tomatoes and makes a healthy salad for Benwahwah as a healthy alternative to his regular meal of fish and chips covered in Gravy*
