PADDLE FIGHT + Health Scare + Semifinal PICKLE - Ben Johns LOSING Early? Can Tina Pisnik Win A Gold?

[@jennymullis3870]

The video challenge clip showed a completely different shot (left side of Pablo’s body) than the actual shot that was challenged (right side of Pablo’s body)?! Way to go PPA 😮

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Omg I’m so dumb I didn’t even catch this

[@eddieyangoren8677]

It was out😮

[@huge.pickle.fan.]

Wrong shot lol

[@CloseCallReplay]

I wish there was a replay line challenge system out there that can help with this nonsense! Anyone know of any systems that can help with the "Close Calls"?

[@JordanSchaeffer]

“Do you see my haircut? I’m a Karen” 😂😂😂 great line

[@stevef9025]

Fabulous. Great highlights & commentary. You should have your own show on ESPN.

lol thanks

[@johngeldermann895]

I read a Facebook post showing the selfie from the paddle standoff and apparently Selkirk delivered another paddle to the blue jacket lady shortly thereafter. Bravo April Paxton and sons from the Selkirk crew!

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Haha that’s awesome I hope they gave her two for the publicity

[@nicoletanner2373]

So glad to hear this. The other lady probably is feeling pretty embarrassed about this.

[@GoodGuyPickleballer]

Best pickleball recapper! KOTC does a good general overview as well!

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Yeah KOTC is great

[@EddieDBama]

another banger! This is the show that keeps on giving.. also, love the mocking of Collin. Hook - YEAH!

[@Coach_A22]

There is no question that the Johns brothers hate the Vulcan ball. You can see it throughout the year with their reaction to erratic bounces. Ben’s affected by it, particularly in singles, and I’m quite certain his 2024 record has something to do with the Vulcan ball. I assume PPA players agree, possibly through NDA, not to knock sponsors, so they can’t say much about the ball. If I had a choice, Vulcan would not be my first 5 balls to use. The competition is certainly getting better, but I strongly believe that if the ball were changed back to Dura or Franklin, Ben would start to win consistently again. I assume Staksrud loves the Vulcan ball, in addition to having improved significantly! Love the content!

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Possibly

[@Everheartt]

Interesting take

That guy running into the net, needs to be replayed a couple of times and one time in slow motion. So funny...:)

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

One of my favorite clips

[@wombattleaxe]

Late to the game here but the initial Hook of the Week (1:41:08) - the replay that they show has the ball going to Pablo's forehand; the live action the shot has the ball going to his backhand. IOW the replay is not the call in question. So who got snaked?

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Yeah I’m stupid and didn’t even notice it was a different point

[@wombattleaxe]

Haha not your fault. The entire time I’m watching KZbin pickleball, I’m going, man can’t wait to hear the SNS take on this or that awesomeness//ridiculousness. Keep on them about decent line cameras - got faith in you man.

Sock had a point on the late challenge, but after taking over a minute to get his towel and water earlier, it seems kinda disingenuous.

Jack is so much fun to watch .

[@lesterma1608]

Sock is the new Happy Gilmore!

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

lol good way to put it

[@JohnTe-nh7mw]

Instead of hook of the week do look of the week. Decide who has the best fashion/look on court each week (hint: it's Christian Alshon everytime 😂).

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

I was thinking book of the week but this might be better

[@CoreySheehan]

Alshon not looking so hot these days, great recap

lol gonna be interesting to see how he does in MLP - thank you

[@mex5341]

all good but 1:46 :13 ?ohhhh

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Too much to cover and I figured we have an off week so you can watch slowly throughout the week if it’s too long

[@indkeith]

A pickle, then proceed to get swept. Surprisingly, Johns bros had a bad strategy for them. Pretty sure there will be a different result next time they meet.

Hi Chris, love the show.. I want to partner with Vivian David. She is just the nicest person. I don’t think she would get mad at me id I miss a shot. I would like to body bag Tyson McGuffen just because. And I want to hit a winner off the net on Colin John’s. That would be funny! Thanks Tim.

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Hahaha solid

[@andylundberg5097]

Do not add hook of the week as suggested by dink. Why don’t they show some balls and do it? Scared of big pickle. If you do will cause all kinds of issues for you and ppa will probably take your ability to show their footage away. I would if I was them. I found it amusing Zane wanting everyone but him to publish book of the week when he has the perfect platform for it. Don’t do it

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

lol should I do book of the week instead?

@@sorrynotsorrypickleball how bout look of the week. Find the best shot you saw and make it the look of the week. A relook. Stress positive not negative. Zane knew to stay away from the hook of the week. If it was a great idea you think he wouldn’t do it there??? He don’t love you!!

[@dbada9985]

Great recap, Chris! A little bummed there was no CA cringe highlight this week LOL. Some thoughts I had while watching the PPA this past weekend: - Allyce Jones screams way too much. Love her tho. - I really liked Camryn Irwin, she makes the commentaries so much more professional and I missed hearing her voice this week; Meesh is so much cringe IMO and I'm pretty sure Flemings has a list of "clever lines & phrases" he just shuffles around and drops on broadcast every weekend. - I am honestly loving the different contenders on Champion Sunday lately! - Cannot wait for MLP!

[@sorrynotsorrypickleball]

Agreed with everything here!

[@joannaburns3128]

Yes, the commentating on championship Sunday is so awful and cringe. If I hear anything about snowmen again regarding the scoreboard I’m going to have a meltdown.
