Grateful to see people picking up a game, being active, exercising well into their elderly years and loving it for all the same reasons people love competition.

It has taken the nation by storm. New pickleball courts are more common than new tennis courts.

The game is great for the average player. At a certain level they just need to

I prefer tennis. It is better in almost everyway. Except I can go play pickleball with a novice or my kids much easier

Yup, I only get slightly bugged when people try to compare pickleball in athleticism and skill to tennis.

I compare it to ping pong. I don't consider it exercise, but it is fun. I've never played doubles, that seems boring.

Yeah don’t compare it tennis. And don’t compare WNBA to NBA. Two

What a loser. That was pretty awesome and you would have to be blind to

What I saw the women did not take advantage of many shots to put it away by choosing sharper angles. Poor strategic play

Baron

Yeah but still fast paced action. And quick reflexes.

Doubles sucks, singles is a lot of fun.

You can't serve overhead.

Bowling must give him nightmares.

Yes, we should all get back to our screens instead of enjoying another

If the lady in the pink shoes were a man, she would be put on blast for hogging.

Great game, in the same category as spikeball. I hate it right now though

"professional" pickleball is weird. But it's a fine recreational sport

"Pickleballers" sounds like a hilarious comedy film. I would watch that movie.
