  1. Good Morning, Everyone. 🎾 ⚖️ THE BAIL’S IN HIS COURT! ⚖️🎾

    🎶 I fought the LAW and the LAW won…I fought the LAW and the LAW won…🎶 “I Fought the Law” – Bobby Fuller Four 1966 https://tinyurl.com/98xsjj2u

    ⚖️ Out on the surface, quite a FORCE, with racket in his hand,
    He’d always COUNT amongst the best…he’d definitely grandstand…
    But he FORGOT the calling that he much would rather do,
    Inside he heard the UPROAR…”You can serve defendants too…”
    So studying he turned to…it became about the tort…
    He traded in his racket…and left the COURT FOR THE COURT! ⚖️

    The game of Tennis is hardly a stranger to the game of Jumble. We’ve been out on the court many a time over the years. But Tennis and a courtroom? LAW and behold…a novel APPROACH! But hey, why not? LET’s not FAULT it ‘til we try it, right?

    Today’s words, all ones that have bounced by us before, were no challenge for the Early Birds this morning. In fact, their prowess SERVED them so well, that hardly any time at all enSUED. They ACED it all, without any PRACTICE…So, I’m not going to TRIAL my usual puns out on you…and instead I’ll just cut right to the CASE…

    Finding ourselves in a Courtroom, today we see a Judge, and two Lawyers. With the Judge having just RETURNed his verdict, and being told that his client is at FAULT, the former Tennis player turned Lawyer considers it a bad CALL, and goes off on a tirade, accusing the Judge of being blind. And in the true sense of LOBbying for his client, it’s obvious that a little bit of that bad SEED still remains…and that our Lawyer has simply left the COURT FOR THE COURT!

    Jeff’s Gems? You have to chuckle at the Plaintiff’s Lawyer’s use of the word SERVED, and the Judge’s use of FAULT. But with our former headband-wearing Tennis player, a bead of sweat upon his brow, making such a RACKET, and flinging his sheaf of papers to the ground, we can see that there’s no LOVE lost there…So, we have to figure that Jeff’s SET him up after one of the more…”aggressive” pro Tennis players. But the only one that I know of who went on to become a Lawyer, is Mario Ančić, https://tinyurl.com/35xkxd5v and I don’t believe he was known for SWINGING that way. Has Jeff perhaps raised the BAR here a bit, and given us a DOUBLES-edged sword, so to speak? A MIXED persona? Between JUSTICE…I’m not sure…I’ll LET you be the JUDGE…

    So, There you have it Folks, Done! Have a good one. Be well, stay safe…and I hope the day SERVES you well…BYE, BYE! 🎾⚖️🙋🏻‍♀️

  2. 🎾 Because of the UPROAR caused when they had no choice but to switch the dirty COURT FOR THE COURT that was clean, he had to FORCE himself to COUNT to ten, and concentrate, especially after he FORGOT to take his racket…🎾

    🤷🏻‍♂️ They didn’t want to FORCE him, but the COUNT had just been done,
    And there’d be a definite UPROAR, since they’d be under the gun…
    No one FORGOT the last time that things caused them to abort…
    So they needed a commitment..is it this COURT FOR THE COURT? 🤷🏻‍♂️

  3. An instant blind solve after an even quicker solve of the anagrams.We’re off to the Allegany foothills of Allegany NY,hometown of my wife and her mny siblings, to visit some of her family who still live in the area.

  4. Good morning. You were right Angela, today’s jumble was a lot easier than yesterday. Loved your video song choice. No blind solve on the cartoon but once I put down the letters it was like turning on a switch, it was that quick. Until tomorrow stay well and stay safe.

    • You know I’d never steer you wrong, Brooklyn! 😉 And glad you enjoyed the music. Hoping you stay well and safe too, Paul. Enjoy your day…🎾🙋🏻‍♀️

  5. All the anagrams came quickly. Solution seemed pretty obvious. I guess Sunday will bring the challenge, eh?
    The coming week in SoCal will be a hot time. High 90’s to 103, oh boy!
    Our bums will be setting fires and we will have to figure out how to survive……………

    • Good luck, Mig…and I wouldn’t worry about tomorrow’s puzzle…you’ll do fine. Stay safe. 🎾🙋🏻‍♀️

  6. Easy one, except for having to back into Uproar. Enjoyed all your legal puns, Angela.
    The lawyer reminds me very much of John McEnroe. Though I don’t believe he ever became a lawyer, his dad was one.
    Jumble on!

    • Good Morning, Caroline. Thank you!…I immediately thought of McEnroe too, the original “Bad Boy of Pro Tennis”. But with him becoming notorious for his “You cannot be serious”…I just wasn’t sure…(although it is a similar comment). And I know that he does sports commentating now. TBT? I’m curious! Have a good one, Caroline. Enjoy! 🎾🙋🏻‍♀️

    • T’was so easy and a quick solve. I love the answer to the drawing. I must say that the tennis player wasn’t very courteous though! Hard to blame him of course!!!
      Christian

      • Agree, Christian…Very easy. And yes, his temper definitely took CENTRE COURT! Hope your day’s going well. Enjoy! 🎾🙋🏻‍♀️

  7. Easy solve this morning. Great tennis puns, Angela. You are too punny. Have a good day all.

    • LOL! Good Morning, Betty. Thank you. And you are too kind! Wishing you a good day too. 🎾🙋🏻‍♀️

  8. Hi all – Nothing at all got in the way today; one of the easier puzzles.

    Yes, the headband, hairstyle and hot temper all shout John McEnroe (and so does he!)
    (My laugh came at “LOBbying”, Angela.)

    Good wishes to everyone.

    “The UPROAR at COUNT Dracula’s castle was caused when he tried to FORCE the door to Miss Mina’s room, but FORGOT that the greenery on the lintel wasn’t mistletoe but a garlic corsage.”

    • SHANK you, Steve…And I c-LOVE the garlic corsage! 😂 Have a good one! 🧄🙋🏻‍♀️

        • LOL! Indeed! …Like the Garlic diet…You don’t lose much weight, but from a distance, all your friends think you look thinner.😂🧄🙋🏻‍♀️

  9. First thought to me was McEnroe! Then of course I head off onto our music tangents, as we so often do. He married Patty Smyth of Scandal! Another favorite rocker gal of the 80’s! That just tickled, me when they got together! I thought if anyone can handle McEnroe, she could! She’s no shrinking violet! Fun puzzle! Who ever that guy is! 😉 Have a great weekend!

    • And they’re still married! Guess it’s a MATCH made in Heaven! Wishing you a great weekend too, Kimberly. Enjoy! 🎾🙋🏻‍♀️

      • I KNOW! It’s almost unimaginable for celebrities these days! Well, good for them! And loved that pun! 😆Thanks Angela! Take care!
