"Both of us played basketball, and I played tennis and my knees are done. Now if you ask us head-to-head who wins at golf, I'm asking for a couple of strokes"

About this Quote

This quote by Michael Wilbon is an amusing method of revealing the concept that although he and his good friend both used to play basketball, he has actually given that carried on to playing tennis, and his knees are not what they used to be. He is suggesting that if they were to play a video game of golf head-to-head, he would require a few strokes to even the playing field. This quote is an easy going way of acknowledging that his buddy might have the upper hand in a video game of golf, but that he is still going to offer it a try. It is an amusing method of revealing the idea that although he may not be as physically capable as he used to be, he is still going to give it a go.
