40 – 4.5 – at this point it looks like hockey, lots of
matches but barely anyone eliminated. A
full seven teams are all sitting with one loss.
All I can really say at this point is that Greenhill/Ohl and TBar/Fikes
are out of it. Past that, everyone else
still has a shot.
40 – 4.0 – flight A – much like 4.5 above, many teams still
technically in the running. The leaders
at this point all have one loss and still have a lot of big matches left to
play. Springpark/Walters, Huffhines/Clark
and Greenhill/Ohl have the advantage at this point with Springpark in the lead
on lines won.
40 – 4.0 – flight B – things are a little clearer here with
Oak Creek/Ramasami and Chandlers Landing/McLemore sitting atop the heap in the
undefeated column. Canyon
Creek/Patterson lurks close behind with only one loss.
55 – 8.0 – still a four horse race at the moment. Greenhill/Kayser sits alone and undefeated,
with one loss Springpark/Blesi, TBar/Snow and Lifetime/Heflin in the wings. I didn’t make Lifetime to be a contender at
this level but let’s see how it all shakes out.
55 – 9.0 – looks like Oak Creek/Sweeney is in the driver’s
seat here. They have a one match lead at
the moment but still need to beat second place Gleneagles/Juhn in the first
round of a double round robin to secure the lead at the halfway mark.
Tri-level is two weeks away so I’ll try to sit down this
week and have a closer look now that the flights are out.
Wow...no comments. Let's see what I can start. Dallas wins Tri level without a match lost. Mike k goes undefeated. SpringPark wins and comes in second in 8.0.
ReplyDeleteAnd begin.
Old news
Deletemike k makes a horrible call at 8-8 to help win a match, which in the end costs his team a trip to Indian Wells.
ReplyDeleteHow did it cost his team?
ReplyDeleteSA retires matches advancing Noho to finals instead of attempting to win (to send Dallas).
DeleteNot the end of the world, I told Freeman on Friday...we either defend our National title and have a great time,or save $$$. Hope Freeman keeps the title in Texas! Have a great time! Sisk
ReplyDeleteKelly is a cheater. He needs to retire from TX Tennis. I've never seen any one more hated.
ReplyDeleteKelly is probably the worst. Sisk is sooo in love with Kelly he doesn't see how bad Kelly is. You are telling me there isn't anyone better?!?!
ReplyDeleteHow does Sisk not play Hunyh over Kelly?
Was Kelly his problem, or his 4.0 line in 2 matches??
DeleteWho plays Alan? He is a cheater too.
DeletePretty sure Kelly was one of the problems. Everyone thinks Kelly is some God that is always undefeated. These 4.5 players are 3.5 women and that's where Kelly USED to see success, but can't even win at 8.0 mixed, let alone 4.5.
DeleteMost of this just isn't true. San Antonio didn't screw Dallas. Dallas made its own mistakes. NOHO was 10 minutes away from completing a sweep of San Antonio when SA lost the only line it had any chance to win. The SA 4.5s were down a set and two breaks in the second. The SA 3.5s just got bageled in the second and were done. It was over.
ReplyDeleteAt least you're not denying Kelly cheated SA the day before.
DeleteSA won the first set at 3.5 and 4.0 and then got bageled in the second sets on both. Why? Because they knew that if they won that Dallas would advance and it was payback. They teased Dallas and then pulled the plug. Well played.
Exactly right, SA's game results in the first sets: 16-11..after the first, 0-16.
DeleteIt really doesn't matter....Sisk should control his own destiny, not relying on another team to decide his fate.The flight numbers show the strength. If the new head to head rule wasn't in place, Dallas goes.
ReplyDeleteSisk let emotions get the best of him. Let's break this down.
Delete1) how does Kelly play when you have much better players? You have Davidson that is a lock with Huynh (didn't play) or Tuttle who was 2-0.
2) how does Bloomberg not play but Alan does? Bloomberg is back to 4.5.
Sisk must have forgotten this isn't mixed. He yelled at our captain for putting put a bad lineup. Hmm...
You don't play your weapons, you will lose.
And Kelly goes 0-2 if he wasn't a cheater and had some respect for the game.This incident has branded him and I am sure no team he is on will get any respect moving forward. He is an enigma.
DeleteBut you still have Sisk who loves him and will always have him on the team. Sisk needs to understand, people are going to start hooking Kelly and he is detrimental to any team. Look at San Antonio - are you telling me that other Mike guy didn't throw the tiebreaker? Kelly needs to go away or get suspended for being a tool

ReplyDeleteI saw the matches. Dallas' 4.0 line against NOHO was the opportunity to advance, not the 4.5 line.
ReplyDeleteBut you played Alan? Sisk really loves the cheaters
DeleteAlan went 0-2. Wouldn't call that cheating.
DeleteNot sure about other instances, but I played Alan and I don't think there was even a questionable call.
