2016 End of Year Ratings - By Popular Demand

Ok maybe not popular but for me one request is enough to type up something real quick

Good-bye nice to know you in 4.5 land.
Casey Garretson, Eddie Bailey, Alex Scharlau, Alex Rivas, and Jay Heflin got the boot to 5.0
UAFS and OBU Junior Pups also saw their fun end going to 5.0

Hey we missed you Award and welcome back to 4.5: Brandon Cox out in WATA.
Raul Bermudez finally gets his 5.0 rating, will be tough to beat there. I am sure Wyatt and crew are beating his door for 5.0 and 40+ 4.5 league

Super Mario and Baylor Stud Sergio get kicked to 5.5, after dominating 5.0 and 9.0 mixed

Those celebrating the new ratings:
Adam Zimmerman and Jimbo Ramsey -- Congrats on another year to dominate those poor bastards at 4.0 yet again

Drinking Salty Tears yet again: Brandon Kiker, what does the poor man have to do to get to 4.0 again. Is it time to get visual verifiers out again? There are many players who who probably be about 1 level lower, while others need to be higher.

Will USTA do anything about Juniors self-rating prior to signing with a college, thus playing 1-3 levels below where they should be. Sorry no D2 player/signee should be playing 4.0 and even 4.5 league.
I am looking at you UAFS and OBU signees.

2017 4.5 season will be interesting to see where a few juniors land as they finalize college plans.

Few 4.0 to 4.5 bumps: Synco, McCloud, Show get to have fun in tankers paradise .. I mean 4.5 league.

Ok for now I am done, but will taker longer look later and have some more fun.

So just saw a complete ringer placed into 4.0 team, what a nice Christmas Gift by Southern and ATA to allow it, won't reveal the name, but player when healthy is a 5.0 doubles player. Merry Christmas to all and Happy New Year. Bring it On 2017!

Combo 2022 Finals

 Sounds like once all the rain left Mobile and the courts dried off, AR Teams faired pretty darn well with a couple of teams winning Titles and others being the bridesmaids Winners: 8.5 40+ Men The ironman of joining teams and probably is the one player who keeps USTA Funded each and every year adds another trophy to his collection.  The old guys finished in a tie for 2nd after Round Robin Play going 3-1 with 4-0 NC holding the lead.  AR advanced by virtue of 10 wins to 9 wins for TN In the finals Mesaris and company got revenge on NC from their 2-1 Loss in RR Play Round Robin Match Finals Match Card: In my opinion line-ups for AR was not much stronger in the finals, they did manage to take the 2 MTB's to win it all.  NC played 2 of their same teams from the RR match and just got beat. Could make the case that Lee/JJ were a tad tougher team at #1, but KG/TC are no slouches either; BL/JG are a solid 8.5 team CONGRATS Guys well played!! 6.5 Ladies 18+ Congrats to Meek ...

Post Sectionals Recap and Old Men 40's Sectionals

Well the youngsters finished Sectionals last weekend and well my predicitions kinda sucked. AR 4.0: 2-2, but could have been 4-0 with 2 MTB wins. No Wiseman, no Kaliki probably hurt, but it is what it is. Not sure who gets bumped to 4.5 next, although have to assume, Zimmerman, Meredith, Wiseman are likely candidates. AR 4.5: 0-4, not wholly unexpected, this was more of a 40 and over team, with a couple youngsters to feed to the brutal heat. Good fights but not their year. Believe Casey G. saved himself a bump with a few losses at Sectionals. AR 5.0: 0-4, pretty disappointing result, this team was pretty stacked, but without a Kajevski and Martinex would have been tough but with a few of the guys though would have done better. 40 and overs started today and the 4.5 Men got a big win over GA (A). . Good luck the rest of the way for the 4.5 guys. With a dominating 5-0 win over SC the men play the Finals this morning, I would think they would be the favorites against NC. Single...

2018 NTRP Rating News, Bitching, Complaining, Jumping for Joy

New ratings came out 2 weeks ago, but my lazy ass did nothing but look over and peek. No real surprises to be honest although there was a certain 4.5 player that appealed down to 4.0 somehow, guess competition was too tough after going 3-1. Thanks USTA Clowns. The 4.5 Chasm has gotten much bigger now with several bumps from 4.0 to 4.5, no real moves from 4.5 to 4.0 other than the appeal. Few older statesmen got appeals from 5.0 to 4.5 (Welcome back Alex and David) and a couple of 4.5/5.0 players will be joining the 40+ gang this coming year. The Suck It Award goes to Kiker and Nordentoft for about the 4th straight year, guess USTA just hates these guys and refuse to let them back down to 4.0 even with the losses mounting. The Wiseman comes back to 4.5, Big Red makes his debut at 4.5, a Baptist Pastor also makes a return 4.5, while doubles prodigy remains 4.0, and Big Lee gets to stay at 4.0, ATA's favorite son remains a 4.5, while 55+ gang get bumped to the desert called 5....
