All this talk about Billie Jean King had me reminiscing about my days as a ball boy for (World) Team Tennis. The Phoenix Sunsets may have never gotten a song written about them, but the Philadelphia Freedoms sure did. Although it's been widely reported that Elton wrote the song specifically for his friend Billie Jean, I think we all know he was just using her to get to Kathy Kuykendall.
