james-I just got your book at the NH signing. I have followed your tennis since you played my friends in HS. The last few years have been difficult for me and I empathize, maybe not the magnitude but with all you went through. I think it is wonderful. Your determination, drive and heart not only shows everyone your a greatt athelete but an amazing individual. If you were never able to play tennis again I would still be writing you and asking how I could get in on one of you poker games, jk. I have heard that you sometimes play with your emotions and that might hurt you, but even so how can playing with heart be all too bad? Every time I have seen or run into you are always smiling and that is something special. I can't say the same thing for Marat Safin, right?
Good Luck! and I look forward to Pilot Pen and the US Open
