I know I am asshole with such a tease, I'll comeback for more later today or tomorrow, or whenever the hell I feel like it. Will say first glance interesting, but not a lot of excitement For those to lazy to look follow this link and figure it out: http://tennislink.usta.com/Leagues/reports/NTRP/AdvancedSearch.aspx Update 10:43 PM Alright the big man at Burns has requested some knowledge be shed for 2015 season so here goes 1. 5 guys from Ft Smith got the bump to 5.0, damn guess that means UAFS will now win 5.0 leagues 2. Batman and Robin from Little Rock can no longer dominate 8.5, but I hear they may tackle 9.5 now 3. Kiker, Luneau, Robinson, Nordentoft in 2016 beat Marc Nixon, that way you can go down to 4.0 4. Tank You Very Much Award: Papa Murphy 5. Miller, Phelps, Jones and the other 5.0s on the Sectional Team, thanks for not tanking 6. Jonesboro 2016: Rivas is back, but leave the MS guys alone 7. How many teams with the dynamic duo commit to next year, only to...

Hmm for some reason some clowns still like to view this site on occassion, must be bored or have a 5th grade reading level for this drivel. So anyways after hearing about 1 person's interest, let's discuss that beast of a format called Combo, in particular 8.5 combo. Whoa!! Hold on to your butts, saw everything from 4.5/4.0 combos, to a 5.0/4.5 combo (well ok will be in about 3 weeks), then there was a 5.0/3.5 popular and what about that 5.5/3.0 line winning a match. So in the end the tennis player, turned farmer/rancher Kiker led his band of goons to the title, while texting non-stop and never stepping foot on the court, well done. Hoffmann/McDaniels won the clutch matches, although they must have been bored as they actually lost a match to Rogers or still pissed about forgetting a sign-up deadline ATA's favorite son and Burns Park superintendent won everything this weekend As for the other teams: Rogers as usual showed up for one day, then said fuck it, let...

4.0 Men: Thought I would know more of these guys but truly don't recognize many of them. Rogers/Scott appears to be the clear favorite and with their toughest competition not allowed into the tournament they should roll pretty good. Expect Synco holding down the singles lines, David Lord playing top of the Doubles with multiple partners. Appears toughest match will be the first one against NWA. Fort Smith has 2 teams (3 team league) NWA has 2 teams (1st and 3rd Place) CLR only 1 Team WTF!!! Where the hell is Jonesboro who are always staples of 4.0 State? No Mid-season hurt CLR this year as they only got one team in even though their 2nd Place team is better IMO than the other teams outside of Rogers/Scott. Of course no mid-season also meant no late season tanking could be done, see their is a benefit. So predict: 1: CLR: Rogers/Scott 2: WATA: Nelligan 3: NWA: Harris 4: WATA: Tran 5: NWA: Baird 4.5 40+ Men This is easily Birch's to lose, would take a miracle or ...

May do some chatting in the neat future and see what I can do to make the few fans happy. Will start with 4.5+ 40&U and 5.0 Divisions 4.0 18's Tournament, will be fun Then the College Division .. sorry the 18+ 4.5 Division As for the other divisions, sorry I really just don't give a .... Once written please know I don't care what others think about what I type and if it hurts your feelings I will buy you a handkerchief to wipe away the tears. Will start posting come Wednesday or so.
