• When: YW (2002), the week before the Continental Jr. Clay-Courts in Indianapolis IN
• What: With E.T.A. amused and some wondering whether Clipperton would now drop his "psychic cuirass" and play fair, Michael Pemulis worked his PowerBook and odds-software to a locker-room killing on the frenzy of wagering over whether Clipperton would even bother to appear at Indy now that he had "extorted himself to the sanctioned top," or would retire from the tour and "lie around masturbating over the Glock in one hand and the latest issue of NAJT in the other" — an image endnote n.175 glosses.
