New Ratings re Out for Arkansas

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 be foiled by the pesky sign-up deadlines
8. How many 4.5 teams for 2016 in CLR? 3 or 4? With there be another schism (get a f'n dictionary and stop being lazy) between CF and BB as the tankers come back down?
9. Who are some potential free agents? MD, G.BB

10. It's lonely at the top in 4.0 Award? --> Jacob "Don't call me McDaniel" McDaniels. Really congrats on being the poor sucker to be bumped to 4.5 out of all the 4.0s

11. Will I ever talk about NWA tennis? Maybe once they decide to leave their Country Clubs in Walton Land for a full weekend and do something at Southern Sectionals, not that weak ass Mo. Valley stuff.

12. The WTF is USTA Computer thinking award: Sergio Ramirez getting a 5.0 rating despite blasting everyone at 5.0 and only loss being to a 5.5 in three sets. Who ever gets him in Spring 2016 will be happy, now they can get another stud college player

Night, Happy Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, etc..

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....
