Wimbledon decimal tennis shock!
The game of tennis will be substantially revised as part of a general scheme to harmonise sporting rules, EU Commission President-Elect Jean-Claude Juncker announced today.
“The scoring system in tennis is long overdue for reform,” said Mr Juncker. “What is this 15 and 30 points, this first-to-6 games in a set, this ridiculous 3 sets to win a women’s match? 3 is a number for witchcraft and superstition. In a rational, scientific world there is no place for measures that are divisible by this barbarian number.”
Uncorking his third bottle, he continued, “5 sets for men is better, but still only half as good as 10. And if the winner of each set has to achieve 10 games of 10 points each, then the theoretical minimum points playable are 1,000 instead of, er, 120 – stupid figure,” he hiccuped, “or 72 for the ladies of course, blessem.”
“And consider the enormous increase in productivity,” said the President-Elect in a louder voice, thumping the table so that the remaining seven unopened bottles rattled in their ranks. “The spectators will have far greater value for their money, and the emergency treatment of many exhausted players and onlookers will provide more work for the medical services of which we Europeans – including you British – are so justly proud. This is why the Sports Directive will include provisions for building many new hospitals, employing thousands in long-term projects.”
“This is only the start,” said Mr Juncker as he forged on with his personal rehydration program. “Why twelve apostles? We could easily dispense with two.
“And if Pluto is reinstated and we add Ceres, there would be 10 planets, instead of this messy 8 and bits. Remind me to tell you about the European Vishnu Plan – destruction of the asteroid belt, comets, the Oort Cloud, sorry I shouldn’t be revealing that yet, off the record, urp, I’ll have you all on the European Arrest warrant if you publish that, what have I done with the corkscrew…?”
