      It is somewhat interesting as pickleball feels much less intense than tennis. In doubles…which most people seem to play…you move around some but not nearly to the extent of tennis. My takeaway here is that you move “enough” for some decent benefits. Oh…and that apple watches snoop on just about everything.

    It will be interesting to see if pball sticks or trends away as a fad. As a longer term.player, it’s just gotten nuts with participation lately…

    According to my father, who lives within earshot of a pickleball court, the game is terrible for the mental health of innocence bystanders… Due to the noise made by the oversized ping pong paddles.
