If he started 3.5, let him finish out the year. Apparently the USTA doesn't have a problem with it or they would have not let him register for the tourney at that level.<BR/>Not comparing by any stretch, but didn't Tiger win the US amateur 3 years in a row (94-96) before going pro? Did he just like beating up on people below his level and winning trophies? I think not. You people need to get a life. Prather and Blackburn, I don't know you that well, but don't listen to these idiots.

The point that anon seems to be making is you have been playing tennis for all these years to get better and keep advancing in levels, you finally get the big 4.0 bump up (of which I assume you were proud to get) and you still want to play in 3.5 draws? Will that be a big accomplisment if you and your fellow 4.0 partner actully win the 3.5 draw? You were the one that used to always accuse the dirty garland boys of "playing out of level" and here you go... By the way do you get a big trophy if you "finish the year in the final eight"? Wow a 4.0 finishing the year in the top 8 of 3.5, that would be a real nice accomplishment!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-31274037173330765592008-10-03T08:40:00.000-05:002008-10-03T08:40:00.000-05:00"If I played 3.5 or 4.0 I would have to quite tenn..."If I played 3.5 or 4.0 I would have to quite tennis ALTOGETHER!!!"<BR/><BR/>Well it's a good thin not everybody is like you or the USTA would have about 5,000 members.<BR/><BR/>We are all glad you are so skilled.<BR/>Why don't you take your athletic skills to a different sport like soccer and leave us alone, since you are so much better than all of us.<BR/><BR/>Better yet, let us know who you are, I'm sure there are plenty of 3.5 and 4.0 players who will take you on in a different sport like Boxing or UMMA,<BR/>You arrogant little prick.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-31980357585136837392008-10-03T02:25:00.000-05:002008-10-03T02:25:00.000-05:00Didn't this Prather guy have an emotional melt dow...Didn't this Prather guy have an emotional melt down on one of the other prior threads like a month or two ago?

I was actually there two weeks ago and there was a tourney playoff going on to see who would get the wilcard entry. Those girls were hitting the hell out of the ball.<BR/><BR/>I like challenger events since you are up close and personal. the few I went to in CA were free I was surprised that the one at TBar charges. I got to see the Bryan Brothers and Michael Chang for free back then.<BR/><BR/>I just missed the Agassi trip to the Burbank challenger tourney but when I played there they had pics all over of that event.Cary Bazan aka Lucky Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876564249848425083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-818010539260903262008-10-02T10:58:00.000-05:002008-10-02T10:58:00.000-05:00"My Possibilities" - Great Cause!
