You Cannot Be Serious

You Cannot Be Serious (ISBN 0-425-19008-0 in the U.S., Serious ISBN 0-7515-3454-4 in the UK) is a book written by the world's former #1 tennis player John McEnroe (with James Kaplan).[1]

First edition

McEnroe details life behind the scenes on the tennis tour and provides the reader with a very candid look at his personal life and struggles. The book made it to the top of the New York Times bestseller list. The hardcover edition was published by G.P. Putnam's Sons in 2002, with the paperback being released a year later by The Berkley Publishing Group in the U.S., and by Time Warner in the UK. The name of the book comes from McEnroe's famous outburst "You cannot be serious!" from his match against Tom Gullikson at the 1981 Wimbledon Championships.

Notes


gollark: D looks neat, as a "somewhat sensible Go", but for some reason people preferred... using Go, because they're wrong.
gollark: Arguably this is *sort of* OCaml, but it seems to have accumulated lots of cruft and the tooling/ecosystem is no.
gollark: What I would really like is a Rust-like language with garbage collection and nicer ML-family syntax, with Rust's nice type system and tooling.
gollark: Yes.
gollark: In my foolish youth, I "learned" Go, and also C++.
