I guess our readers are wanting some more. While the pay for writing this blog is substantial, I still have to supplement it with another job.
I don't have time to do a lot of analysis. But since this is the all important fall league, I will oblige. We all know that the heavy hitters really take this time serious. :) With the cooler weather coming, some of the better players lose their mojo so the fall is about as exciting as Combo and Mixed 40s.
Flight A: My first thought was LB Houston/Moore but there are a lot of new names. Lets see how well they work together. I will take Oak Creek/Herget-Loose. to win with Greenhill Rossouw as runner-up.
Flight B: There are a lot of mediocre or bad teams in this flight. Brookhaven/Harlee should win but Lakes/Way is a contender. The rest should all go abut .500 beating each other in close 3-2s mediocre 4.5 tennis.
Flight C: This is between Greenhill/Rossouw part 2 and Oak Creek/Pribadi. I like Rossouw to win this fight.
At first glance, this crop of 4.5 teams seems down. There could be a non name brand team to emerge. I do have to give the DTA credit in that they appear to evenly and fairly separate the better teams. There is no flight you just scratch your head and say... how could they put that many good teams in one flight. Kudos to them.
Haha really? Flight B has three of the four teams that were in the city championship last season. Flight C has none.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you should be doing the 4.5 threads Corey.
DeleteI just assumed Murray was kidding. Anyone in flight B gets playoff matches all year.
DeleteI tried to say that as serious and see if anyone caught it as satire. Since sectionals, there has been little interest around here so I hoped that would spark a little debate. It didn't.
DeleteThe DTA has turned the fall into such a joke I don't think people care enough to debate. They give us essentially nothing for winning but it still counts for ratings so it's a tankers paradise.
DeleteThe fall season is upon us and the first tankers are starting to register on the tank o meter. My first vote goes to Bob Somabut and his partner and line 3 doubles. They lose 6-0, 6-0 to two below average players a 4.0 and a 4.5, this is just pitiful!
ReplyDeleteI thought a 6-0, 6-0 loss doesn't count for ratings. If so, then it was a wasted tanking effort.
DeleteAdam Blumberg getting beat 0&3 is a bigger tank job.
DeleteAnd I see that Tony Le has magically lost his game again.
DeleteBetter get it back soon because 40s is this weekend and nationals is a few weeks away.
