Twerking vs. Drunk Dancing. No, this is not a fall sorority hazing ritual.

If Beyond the Baseline's coverage has taught you anything it's that tennis players like to dance. That's actually an understatement. They love to dance. Here's a video that Andy Roddick's wife Brooklyn Decker tweeted, which proves that the urge to boogie doesn't stop when you retire. Roddick's dance is equal parts Usher and Michael Flatley's Riverdance. In other words, it is perfect:

What can we say? With the end of the season a mere five weeks away, players start getting a little punchy. I don't blame them.
