Isn't there something truly awesome about sports? The yelling, the hitting, the running, close calls, the chearing, it is all awesome.
But, some sports have me a little baffled. One of these sports is Tennis. I just don't get it.
First point is worth 15.
Second is worth 15.
Next is worth 10.
Next is… not really sure but 0 points is "love."
Why isn't it just 0 points, 1 points, another 1 point , another 1 point, you win.
I could even handle if every point was worth 15. But why is it changed up? In basketball, different shots at different times and areas are worth different points. Same goes for football. Why do they need to change from 15 to 10? And why "love." Just say "0".
Awe well. Not a huge thing but it still is a little strange. Even if it IS tradition, what was the guy 500 years ago thinking?
