Now. I have a strong emotional attachment to Four Square, ever since I patrolled the raised tar courts of the Holiday Hill Day Camp as a wee future journalist. With equal parts tenacity and grace, my reign in the Ace position roughly coincided with Pete Sampras' dominant streak on tennis' grandest hardcourt stages. Ace was my nickname, in fact, and I even had a signature rally-killing move known as Mr. Treetop. I retired at the age of 12 and have never thought about Four Square since... until this moment.
Yesterday, at a press conference for the groundbreaking of Bushwick Inlet Park, I took the opportunity to announce my formally challenge David to a no-balls-barred, balls-to-the-floor Four Square Death Match. David agreed. His office confirmed again this morning and we just have to set a time.
NAG members, above, were no match for David Yassky Saturday
I will have updates througout the week on my training, strategy, the official weigh-in, as well as a round of interviews during Media Day on Friday. Oh, and the winner gets to rezone any two-block stretch of R-6A residential housing on the waterfront back to M-1 heavy manufacturing.

Oh man. Of all the things I am going to miss while I am in Texas this weekend, I am saddest about this.
I think you have to offer an exchange for the privledge of playing with David, he's a politician, afterall.
My offer as personal trainer still holds - Gregor
I'm sure Ward Dennis or Freedman Schnapp would never let Yassky win in hopes of some future job or appointment. And I'm sure Yassky would never take part in anything like that.
Yuk.
