'''[[John McEnroe]]''' is a former professional [[Sports|tennis]] player from the United States. During his career, he held the world No. 1 ranking in both singles and doubles simultaneously; McEnroe's records are still among the winningest in the sport of tennis. In addition to his tennis skills, McEnroe gained pop-culture prominence for his temper — most famously his argumentative shout of &quot;You cannot be serious!&quot; — and long, curly hair held in place with a [[Headbands|headband]]. Both of these characteristics have been parodied in [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]].
