On Ping Pong

The Metaphysics of Ping-Pong by Guido Mina di Sospiro: Table tennis, for Mina di Sospiro, is all about spin.
You might think you're a strong player because you can belt the ball reliably back and forth, but you won't get it back because Mina di Sospiro will have put so much spin on it. Spin makes it hard to tell how and where the ball will bounce, makes everything Heisenbergianly unpredictable.

Then again ping-pong might all be about knife placement....
