Tennis Competition, Except Without Actually Playing

Night of: September 27th
People Involved: Chris Patti, Kyle Hart, Carley Jennings, some Asian guy
Number of Dreams Remembered: a couple, but I'm writing this too late
Length of Sleep: 10 hours

I was going to play tennis with Chris, Kyle, Carley, and some Asian guy (sorry Brian). It was going to be me and the Asian guy vs. Chris and Kyle... I don't know if Carley was going to be sitting out or what. I told my teammate that Kyle will try to play front-man, and the key is to lob it just over his head. I also explained that if you don't make the lob, then move to the middle-ish of the court so that you can recover an angle shot.
The Asian guy was missing so Chris, Kyle, and I rallied a little, but it turned into Kyle trying to be front-man and me trying to get the ball past him. This then turned into me trying to hit it as hard as I can at Kyle's face. Chris and Kyle hit the ball back hard at me, too, and I'd have to run to get the ball, so that was irritating. Also, Kyle was cocky about being front-man, which was lame.
The Asian guy was back, but now Kyle and Carley were reading something on the ground, in the middle of the court. The Asian guy, Chris, and I tried to play, but I stopped because it was difficult to play with Carley and Kyle sitting in the middle of the court. I saw that Kyle was reading instructions to Carley on how to play tennis. The instructions were two pages long in fine print, with a picture of the human body. When I went over there, Kyle was pointing to the thigh and explaining it.
I sat down and said that with them sitting in the middle of the court, it was difficult to play, and that I could quickly explain the rules that Carley didn't already know. I said something along the lines of, "You're not allowed to touch the net." I was then going to explain that you can't hit the ball when it hasn't crossed over the net yet, but I thought I should demonstrate it. As I went to the net, and started explaining, Kyle tried to jump in to explain it at the same time, which was frustrating, and I felt was competitive. I don't think we got to play before I woke up.

In Retrospect: This dream seems to be alluding to the fact that it's difficult to get to play tennis with Kyle because he's always doing something else (with women). That would be crazy if Brian had a dream involving tennis last night. I'd say it's strange that Carley and I did, but I have a lot of tennis dreams.

I don't like play tennis while a Asian friend of mine on interracialmatch.com likes it very much

It makes sense if you read it slowly... I don't think there are random words in there.
