Week 2... Still not an interestng season...



This week is no more interesting than last week but opted to put something out just to keep the week moving along.

4.5

In flight A: Rossouw beat a group of 4.0 bumps and did what was expected.  Lakes are 2-0 with an equally inconsequential win.  T-Bar and Canyon Creek are both 1-0 but Lakes will stop that when they play CC this week..  T-Bar and Rossouw play this week leaving Lakes and Greenhill as the only two undefeated teams.

In flight B: Rossouw, Herget and Harllee are all 2-0.  These are the three best teams in the flight so I guess that is appropriate.  Rossouw and Herget face off this week in probably the week's biggest match.  I expect Rossouw to take this one.  Harllee has Royal Oaks and should stay undefeated.

In Flight C: Reiman is 2-0 and Warren is 1-0.  I think these are the best two teams in the flight and everything will be decided on the 27th.  So far, there is nothing to write.  I still expect the JCC to win this flight.

4.0

In Flight A:  There is much less parity in this flight than 4.5.  There are 4 2-0 teams and 4 0-2 teams with 2 1-1 teams.  Talk about haves and have nots.  It is the country club flight with CC, BH and El Dorado at 2-0 along with McKinney.  CC plays McKinney and the others play nobodys so all the country clubs can celebrate as being undefeated.

In Flight B:Sisk's A team and Noel's team are both 2-0 and probably the two best teams in the flight.  They don't play each for a few weeks.  So far, neither team has beaten anybody.  Brookhaven Bartlett is 1-0 and they are usually a threat but never seem to break through.  Garland plays 1-0 Royal Oaks but that should not matter much.  We will have to wait until October 12 for Sisk to play best buddy Noel.

Flight C: Ratcliffe, Davalos and Clark are undefeated.  Ratcliffe beat Peterson and he appears to have some singles players.  Strong singles players always puts you at the front of the line.

Flight D:  Fretz Jarayam is 2-0 and 9-1 on lines.  I see them running away with this flight.  Good team and bad fights work that way.

I know this wasn't much of a write up but that fall tennis picture was getting on my nerves.  Please write up and argue in the comments.  That is what makes this fun.

    1. Feel free to write something up yourself. If it is worth posting, I will post it and credit it. You've read some of the things I have written, the bar is pretty low to get things posted. I will give you the same pay and respect I receive.

  4. You can pretty much just post Keith Clark to the top of the tankers of the week blog. Unless his line is needed to win, you can bet he will tank it.

    1. Looks like he's 2-1 this fall. If he's tanking he's not doing a very good job of it.

    2. He lost a set in a tiebreaker. He needs to go back to tanking for dummies.
