I have yet to see the difference maker in a playoff match at 7.0 or 8.0 be the lady. That's just Alan trying to smokescreen the real question. Why do such strong players not play up and have some challenge, instead of managing their ratings so they can dominate at the lower level?

The difference has always been the ladies on our teams. The play mixed a couple of days a week and they hit with guys as much as possible and they learn how to play mixed. Say what you want, the ladies make our team. Now you can call all of them cheaters as well. <br /><br />And for years this blog has told me how much I suck and can't play and Gene has been out of tennis for 2 or 3 years. Mike is Mike. And for 7.0 Clark and Wiley called asking to be on the team after we had the other 4.0 guys. Pearson and Mauldin are just as strong, if not stronger then the other 4.0's. <br />anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07487835915197610987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-49768236015274104812015-03-02T21:38:05.233-06:002015-03-02T21:38:05.233-06:00You have quite a group of cheaters.

The reason we do so well outside of dallas is that dallas gives us lots of tough matches. If brookhaven beats us, then they will do very well at sectionals. Which ever teams wins in Dallas, will have a great chance to win it all. But, I don't see us getting beat. We have the strongest team we have ever had.
