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?
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❤❤❤
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.
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)!
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.
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.
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.
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
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?
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
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 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.
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
@@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 have always thought McEnroe was way overrated as a tennis player. Doesn’t have the best groundstrokes doesn’t have the best returns and not the best serves. Also not fast. I don’t think he beats his opponents his opponent just commit unforced errors.
Pickleball is so much fun, all ages can play and all different levels. I love it. Beats sitting on couch after work
McEnroe just playing into his stereotype is soooooo funny! The man is pure entertainment!
Pickleball is a lot of fun when you are playing it. McEnroe at his very best. Thanks for the video.
Yaaaa.....McEnroe is great!!!! In his 60s and still rocking❤❤❤
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

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
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.
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
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
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.
Relax gentelmans, they are just having fun.
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.
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)
I’d never pay to get bored with this stuff live. But someone do 🤷🏻♂️
Is so great to see two awesome tennis legends having a good time playing together 👏👏👏
I was finally convinced to play this yesterday with friends, but WATCH it?? 💩
I would love to see @rogerfederer play Pickle-ball!
He would never lower himself and doesn't need the money
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.
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 👋😊
pickleball is a fun game to play and to watch… well, to watch when they actually play.
Just when you cannot play tennis anymore thing😂
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.
This is just for entertainment.....for fun.....lighten up haters😮😮😮😮
Classic Mcenroe. 👌🤣
That Agassi humor
This is so hilarious 😂😂😂
This is great!
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.
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.
Yo who’s the ref? I’m trynna see more of her
McEnroe became scared of the kitchen. Even when it bounced he didnt wanna go in there!
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.
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
McEnroe is trolling all of Pickleball.
Haha luv this
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?
Is this better than paddleball?
The old geezer tennis .
Video loses audio sync at 4 minute mark
I think you’re the first one to make it that far 🫡
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
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?
the sound is off on this video, it does not match
why at 6-1, Sock left foot was inside but no foot fault ???!!! and he won the point 7-1.
Ah yes…a bunch of old guys occupying a tennis court with a pickleball game…🙄
Hard to sell this ....thing
That's why they pay these guys big money
no wonder tennis is a dying sport. BTW, I used to watch and play tennis back in the days, these two legendary players!
Where’s Andres hair?
Best match? Are you serious? 5th grade level
I liked it
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....

Un mito 😂
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. 😂
Andre's wearing the same shoes I got for pickleball. I knew I made the right choice. :-)
it's like the electric cars of tennis ! :(
Solid comment😂😂
Is that pickle billy😢😢😢
padels better than this night mare
McEnroe :DDDD
I thought you can't score if you didn't serve?
A sport for the ozempic crew to enjoy
My God this game sucks...
Can someone explain to me where the foot fault is at 5:15? I don't see it.
this video seems corrupted
Pickleball....the kitcken...yeah a very serious sport. Tennis players make pickleball look like a kids' game.
pickleball is not a game to be taken seriously. it's checkers.
Pickleball is an offense to people who play racquet sports.
Sock is a pro. Unfair.
I noped out after the cringe McEnroe complaining to the ump
Definitely not as good as tennis, but not a bad sport overall
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
Sad for them
McEnroe’s fake tantrum shtick every damn sport he plays is so cringe just do everyone a favor and fade into obscurity already
Why are they walking like they have diapers under their shorts?
Agassi was a heartthrob back in the late 80s. When did he turn into Jeff Bezos? Getting old sucks.
The ref chick got butthurt when telling her to move up the line
I guess tennis has degraded along with everything else .

Dear sweet baby Christ. Tennis is dead.
Gltiched out horribly then doesnt fix
You can hire tennis legends to play your elder activity, it's still boring to watch
Was never a fan of both of these, and least now in 2024
Another step into the bastardization of fine things
You might think it is easy!
I will change you a 67!
Never played the game, pro!
No,offence, this is fucking, boring!!!
indoor beach rackets... poor tennis.
John is still a pric
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?
McEnroe is still a punk
Blake is the weak link
One of the stupidest sports that exists. It would be more exciting if they played ping pong or paddle tennis
dislike it
Thomas Joseph Thomas Ronald Thomas Eric
You should move and run in sports.. That's just a goofy game.. Like padel....
Nice activity, not a game or sport whatsoever. Try paddle, badminton or guess what other sport.
McEnroe, a disgrace and embarrassment to himself, America and Tennis, yet no one cares, including himself. Strange age yes?
I have always thought McEnroe was way overrated as a tennis player. Doesn’t have the best groundstrokes doesn’t have the best returns and not the best serves. Also not fast. I don’t think he beats his opponents his opponent just commit unforced errors.
Dumbest game after, you can’t call this sport.
Is the guy that thinks he is funny Joe Biden?
Fun to play but sh!t to watch.
