Pickle ball: tennis for pussies

I wouldn't say that to Draymond Green.

OK I’m just gonna say it
there’s just not something natural about the sound of the pickle ball being hit
I don’t like the sport based on sound alone

why not?  some people base their appreciation of a sport, or one of its teams, based on uniforms.  seems to me that acoustics is no worse a criteria.
There was a key NOT missing from my post
The sound is NOT natural

One day, no one had ever heard of pickleball.  The next day everyone was a pickleball fanatic.

 I haven’t touched a racket in 20 years so pretty sure I would be terrible at pickle ball or tennis.

The story about the plane in Japan that hit a coast guard plane and everyone managed to deplane before it was consumed by fire (in 90 seconds apparently!!) is just amazing
