This reporter caught up the jacket and shirt and here’s what they had to say:

Rptr: What was different from this TV appearance compare to tennis on TV?

Jckt & Shrt: We did a lot of standing around on the set, the lights were hot and it always smelled funny. We’re used to gracefully gliding around the court as if powered by a twin turbo Segway without breaking a sweat.

Rptr: Will we be seeing more of you two either on TV or the big screen?

Jckt & Shrt: Since our debut we’ve been inundated with scripts, pitched pilots, offered endorsements and asked to sing some goofy jingles.

Rptr: So does that mean yes?

Jckt & Shrt: No…we are artist, we only associate with the highest level of creative excellence, which is why we will stay loyal to our higher power, the game of tennis.

Rptr: WOW

Jckt & Shrt: We gotta go….see that car? That’s the paparazzi.

So there you have it….in this reporters opinion the executes at Showtime have clearly been influenced by popular 10sballs.com articles The Federer Effect.
