Alright, let’s talk about this Agassi boy, Jaden, and his baseball thing. You know, Andre Agassi, the tennis fella? Yeah, that one. His kid, Jaden, he ain’t playing no tennis like his ma and pa. Nope, this boy, he’s all about baseball. He likes that baseball, you see?
Now, I ain’t no sports expert, but I heard tell this Jaden, he loves being on that field. Loves being on the what-you-call-it… the mound? Yeah, the mound. He’s a pitcher, throws the ball hard, they say. Grew up big and strong, just like a good ol’ farm boy, you know? Hefty and throws hard just like my second son on the farm.
- He loves pitching.
- He’s good at it, I reckon.
- He ain’t playin’ no tennis, that’s for sure.
His mama, Steffi Graf, she was a tennis whiz too, you know. But they decided, Andre and Steffi, that their kids wouldn’t be playing no tennis. Maybe they saw how hard it was, all that running around. Maybe they just wanted something different for their young’uns. Anyway, Jaden, he picked up that baseball, and that’s that. He found his own path, and good for him, I say.
Now, this Agassi fella, Andre, he says baseball was always his sport. He loved it. So maybe Jaden gets it from him. You know how it is, kids follow in their parents’ footsteps sometimes, and sometimes they go their own way. This Jaden, he’s kinda doin’ both, ain’t he? Following his pa’s love of baseball, but not the tennis part. It’s like my eldest, she loves cows like me, but she hates getting up early. Kids these days.
And then there’s Jaz, Jaden’s sister. She’s even more private, they say. Don’t hear much about her. Probably off doin’ her own thing, just like Jaden. Family’s important, you know? Whether they’re playin’ tennis or baseball or just plain livin’ life, it’s good to see ’em doin’ what they love.
This Jaden, he’s gotta be good if he’s stickin’ with it. Baseball ain’t easy, I tell ya. Lots of practice, lots of travelin’. But if he loves it, that’s all that matters. Just like farmin’, it ain’t easy but someone has to grow the food and I love doing it, not an easy life mind you but it is honest work.
You know, it’s funny how life works out. Andre and Steffi, big tennis stars, and their kid’s a baseball player. Life’s full of surprises, ain’t it? Just like the time my mule decided he didn’t want to pull the cart anymore in the middle of market day.
Jaden Agassi, the baseball player. Sounds kinda strange, but good for him. He’s makin’ his own way, and that’s what counts. Whether he becomes a big star or not, that ain’t the point. The point is, he’s doin’ what he loves. And that, my friends, is the most important thing in life. Find somethin’ you love, and stick with it. Just like this Agassi boy and his baseball. He is a good baseball player.
So, there you have it. Jaden Agassi, the baseball son of tennis legends. He’s doin’ his thing, and that’s all there is to it. And his daddy loves baseball, just like me. Simple as that.
And that little girl, Jaz. Quiet as a mouse, they say. Maybe she’ll surprise us all one day and become a… I don’t know… a champion sheep shearer? You never know with these kids. Life’s a funny thing, like I always said.
