Some of the "old guys" who play tennis in Central Park are amazing. I must say, there are quite a few "older gentleman." This makes sense. Young people are at work, busting their butts to make a few dollars for survival in this town. Many older people have already done their work and are leisurely playing tennis in Central Park. During the day, you can smell the "Ben-Gay" in the air. Old joints and bones and general problems, all involving athletics and age. Everyone wears some sort of brace, holding limbs together, keeping it tight. Age and tennis are a tough one. Let's face it, this game takes a pounding on the body after a while. But everyday, I see many of the same "older faces," with ointments and braces and whatnot. They pull themselves together and play some tennis.
