Eighty-year-old pingpong champ Byng Forsberg has some advice for California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. He says the Governor better practice. Schwarzenegger has agreed to play Forsberg, who's won nearly every table tennis trophy available to the senior set.

The retired owner of a pest control company got a fundraising letter from the Schwarzenegger re-election campaign. Forsberg said he would only donate if Schwarzenegger played him. The governor is accepting the challenge.

A campaign spokesman says they might have to have a weightlifting contest after the pingpong match, so the governor can redeem himself.
