Let the Playoffs Begin - or you can just keep complaining, I get paid the same







Since 4.5 still has a little left before they finish the regular season, here are the final results from 4.0 flight play.  Bold flight winners head straight to cities.  Italicized second place teams and third place teams head to QT, with McKinney and SpringPark just missing the playoffs.  I’m not a fan of the two flight format for city playoffs.  It will produce the best team but will not always produce the second best team.  Since Dallas often gets a wild card, this seems a little unfair.  Of course the Dallas wild card doesn’t typically do a lot at sectionals so maybe it doesn’t matter.

City playoffs - High Point/Le will be the #1 seed at cities and should have Brookhaven/Bartlett and one of the QT winners in its flight.  Bartlett gets the High Point flight based on the sets lost tie breaker.  Since I think High Point wins it all, they’ll need to be picked to win their flight first.

The other flight should be Oasis/Moehler, GTC/Sisk and the other QT winner.  Here’s a real mystery.  I don’t think I know anyone on the Oasis roster but there’s no denying they are undefeated.  Everyone knows GTC/Sisk but it’s been a while since he’s been a factor.  This will come down to who is available as neither team seems to sport a lot of depth.

QT playoffs – Again, a two flight format with both flight winners headed to city playoffs.  Greenhill/Ohl should be the #1 seed but I’m not sure that’s a good thing.  They should have Oak Creek/Head and Fretz/Noel in their flight.  Ohl was the preseason favorite to come out of QT but he lost his best singles player to a Fort Worth team.  If Corey can get his singles stud out for the playoffs, I’ll take him in the upset.  Otherwise it should remain Ohl.

The other flight should be Oak Creek/Ramasami, Oak Creek/Lai and Greenhill/Wendelken, guaranteeing that a new player will be at 4.0 cities this year.  I don’t see Greenhill being a factor here so I’ll take Oak Creek.  Your guess on which one is as good as mine.

Flight AOasis/Moehler 9-0 (35-10)
Oak Creek/Lai 8-1 (29-16)
Fretz/Noel 7-2 (31-14)

Flight BHigh Point/Le 9-0 (40-5)
Greenhill/Ohl 8-1 (34-11)
SpringPark/Walters 5-4 (26-19)

Flight CBrookhaven/Bartlett 8-1 (32-13) (31)
Oak Creek/Ramasami 8-1 (28-17)
McKinney/Bazan 6-3 (27-18)

Flight DGTC/Sisk 8-1 (32-13) (30)
Oak Creek/Head 7-2 (32-13)
Greenhill/Wendelken 6-3 (31-14)

  1. And even though I don't know what over 50% of the complaints are actually about, it is pretty entertaining on occasion.

    1. Whats funny is the Rigney team all won 6-1 or 6-0 in their finals win but Mike Z only one on here bragging about it. To take it a step further his teammates played opponents with better regular season records. So it looks like Mike Z had the lesser quality opponent (his finals opponent 1-12 in 2014) but yet his teammates still won 6-1, 0r 6-0 in three of the final wins against better competition. I am sure you will see Zacry back on to dispute the above.

    3. I will respond. "Wow, way to go. You beat two guys that were a combined 4-13, one a 3.5 bump up. A weak FW opponent and weaker 4.0 team. Good job!"

    5. Spelling your name wrong doesn't throw anybody off track. If that was the case Tony would have put you on the team. Not sure you would be in the top 5.

  3. Liked your analysis on 4.0. We played Oasis and I still don't know much about them. They did seem to get lucky and have every important match scheduled out in east Texas. That won't happen in playoffs so will probably be a different outcome for them.

    1. Don't you need to win your QT fight first?

    2. I didn't say we would beat them. I have two teams that have a good shot to get out of QT but not much else.

  4. I brought up the playoff format back in 2009.

    When there are two flights, a playback match (if needed), needs to be in the format.
    A playback match occurs when the winner of the 3rd place match and the loser in the championship match have not played.

    For example:
    Red 1 beats Blue 1 in Championship
    Red 2 beats Blue 2 for 3rd
    Then there is a playback match.
    Then Red 2 and Blue 1 play for 2nd.


    Red 1 beats Blue 1 in Championship
    Blue 2 beats Red 2 for 3rd
    Then there is a no playback match.

    Schedule would be:
    1 match Friday
    2 matches on Saturday
    2 possible matches on Sunday
    Championship and 3rd place match at the same time
    Playback match if needed

    2. If Sisk's guy come to play, they can beat Tony. I think they have been laying back just waiting to catch everyone by surprise.

  10. The most annoying thing about this is whether you recruit out of level players or tank to get down......never file a grievance! !! There is a name for those who do!!

    2. Where is all the holier than thou wrath? If you lie on a self rate form or bring in an ex-super without waiting 5 years, you're gonna get busted. The rest all subjective. If you didn't watch the match you should have no opinion about whether someone lost intentionally. And you sure shouldn't call Todd Reed.

  11. Sisk why you file grievance against Le team?
