Let's face it, only an upset last night would have been newsworthy. The HTA has done a good job of back-loading the schedule and the early matches are either mismatches or feature two (expected) also-rans.
The Hurricanes breezed to a win over a completely overmatched Cinco Ranch team. The Unicorns won 3-2, and displayed a complete lack of depth. Despite a couple of really nice pieces, they may not be ready for prime time. Due to a lack of court availability, the Good Guys will not finish beating up on Sienna until tonight. Finally, despite Pedro Saiz giving Mark Etienne a scare, the West Side Warriors handled Lakeside 3-2. Westside won three third set breakers.

the young players on the unicorns got spanked in doubles!
ReplyDeleteI don't think that was the Unicorns best lineup...
ReplyDeleteim 90% sure it is...they 've made it this far because their division to playoffs sucked!
ReplyDeleteive seen the unicorns. they were either hiding players or just flat out missing them
ReplyDeleteHurricanes should sweep the unicorns 5-0 any day. We have a lot of players at the 4.5 level who were bumped down to 4.0.
ReplyDeleteBut if we only had tuan tran on our team...
Doesn't matter if Hurricanes can beat Unicorns because neither can beat the Mob Squad.
ReplyDeleteWe actually have tuan tran on our team...
Didnt tuan play last year in 4.0 and they lost against the hurricanes. He s a nonfactor.
DeleteMob Squad beat the Hurricanes in the final of the City Playoffs, and Mob Squad are the defending City Champions.
DeleteChancellors is the defending champion.
DeleteMob Squad = Chancellors
DeleteTuan "The Train" Tran will spot the hurricanes by playing all 5 lines by himself - at the same time. That way, the hurricanes might have a shot at winning one set against The Train.
ReplyDeleteVery funny, but this guy is the real Pete Rios and can play under pressure/ a doubles specialist. Don't let that innocent look fool you idiots.
ReplyDeleteWatching rios play at San Antonio. What a joke he was a 4.0 last year. Maybe he was on fire when I watched him but still WTF.
ReplyDeleteIf he played for Texas Southern, how can he play 4.0?
ReplyDeleteIf your talking about pete computer did not think he was better than 4.0 until pete decided to play like a mad man and computer said, oh shit he is 5.0
ReplyDeleteMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE
ReplyDeleteHow are the Dallas and Ft Worth teams looking this year at the 4.0 level. Is Houston the team to beat this year again??
ReplyDeleteHouston has several good teams but no great teams. Austin looks really good and might be the team to beat.
ReplyDeleteLineup predictions and results for Thursday night matches?
ReplyDeleterain is forecasted for the rest of the week. blast has indoors courts, so that match will mostlikely happen.
ReplyDeleteflight1
canes vs dbag- canes win 3-2
bs vs lakeside- lakeside win 3-2
flight2
copperfield vs hrc- copperfield wins 3-2
sugar creek vs blast - sugar creek wins 3-2
There is no way Sugar Creek plays @ JCC. No way, Douds is way to smart to let that happen.
DeleteWhat happens if it does rain? I'm guessing they just move the match to Friday, but forecast doesn't look good all week.
DeleteI think they'll just play the matches the following weekend. There is no real rush. Sectionals isn't until early August.
DeleteWhy they call him the train?
ReplyDelete'Cause suicidal people will lay down on his tracks and get run over like a train...
DeleteLooks like the Good Guys finally got the score management memo with Andrew Nguyen. Nice 3 set win cheaters.
ReplyDeletewoo. I love you tuan tran
ReplyDeletedon't play with his heart little boy. he's a gangster and will eat you alive. i think he is associated with VB or KB gang.I think i saw him once on gangland, but couldnt really identify him. he was like 120 lbs.
ReplyDeleteGood Guys look impressive. Can they be the sleeper team this year?
ReplyDeleteTheir team is littered with solid players, a few who stick out, but their roster is very deep with experienced players who seem to know how to win.
Deleteif they keep their stud andrew nguyen eligible they could be dangerous.
ReplyDeletewhats the news with the 4.5s? Dallas blogger seems to know flights and wildcard #s. What do we know?
ReplyDeleteRed is sure to know something.
ReplyDeleteGood Guys will win their flight in playoffs. Welcome to sectionals.
DeleteMens 4.0
ReplyDeleteFlt 1. Dallas,Lubbock,Setx,San Antonio, Wild 1
Flt 2. Fort Worth,Amarillo,Waco,Wild 5,Wild 2
Flt 3. Netx,San Angelo,Noho,Valley, Wild 3
Flt 4. Midland,Austin,Houston,C.Christi,Wild 4
Mens 4.5
Flt 1. Setx,Austin,Valley,Wild 3
Flt 2. Dallas,Netx,Noho,Wild 1
Flt 3. C.Christi,Fort Worth,San Angelo,S.A
Flt 4. Houston,Waco,Amarillo,Wild 2
Houston will definitely get wild card in 4.0. Very likely Houston will get one too in 4.5.
Can copperfield match up with the good guys?
ReplyDeletedoes anyone know when myr comes out
ReplyDeleteNormally come out mid july. Should be out by next monday.
ReplyDeleteIs it no ad or ad scoring in the playoffs?
ReplyDeleteGood guys will be tested against copperfield and westside. I don't see them playing Sunday in the finals though.
ReplyDeleteMooooooooooooooooooooooooooose
ReplyDeletethe train?
DeleteMoooooooooooooooooose is da man.
ReplyDeleteif i am the sienna captain, i would protest andrew nguyen for throwing a set on purpose.
ReplyDeletethat should be an automatic DQ for him.
what a bunch of cheaters!
+1 but they re not going to do anything... the captain with the red vette is scared of us.
DeleteI agree, the Sienna captain basically allowed Andrew Nguyen to tank against him. Poor judgement by the Sienna captain, good move by the Good Guys captain.
ReplyDeleteI highly doubt Lance Loken or Michael Spoor let Andrew Nguyen tank to their guys because they both know that whoever has a close score with Andrew will end up with a year-end 4.5 rating.
Your comment had merit until you mentioned Loken. He has proven to be as dumb as the Sienna captain.
DeleteI bet dollars to donuts the Sienna captain thought he was really playing good tennis when he took that set from Andrew Nguyen. Lot of morons out there.
Here is link to spreadsheet with Sectionals times/flights

ReplyDeleteYou tools will click on anything....this could be fun!
Who says this blog has no readers!!!???
DeleteHtown. Who is ur pick Thursday one or the power houses of 4.0 I'n the mob squab or the mysterious unicorns
Delete5 wild cards in 4.0. Any chance Houston could get 2 wild cards in 4.0?
ReplyDeleteNo chance Houston gets 2 wild cards.
ReplyDeleteLet's just all start tanking sets or get rid of all the cheating or whining league captains.
ReplyDeleteAs a benchmark player who is going to get bumped up anyway, you're wasting your time tanking a set against me. I'll take a playoff win and be happy about it.
4.5 gets two spots into State, both finalists on Sunday afternoon go to Dallas. Same as last year.
ReplyDeleteSo Westsdie and Sugar Creek will both get to go to sectionals.
DeleteCorrection: 4.5 westside vs copperfield
Delete4.0 good guys vs canes
Do you think Blacksheeps is going to Dallas or they will find a way to lose and stay in Houston as usual?
DeleteUnconfirmed but reported that Austin got a WC in 4.5.
ReplyDeleteLets hope Htown gets that second one and you guys are correct.
Definitely mobsquad. We expect to sweep the gaycorns 4-1 and only expect sheshir to win line 1 singles.
ReplyDeleteSweep 4-1?
ReplyDeleteYou are not very smart! :-)
whatever y'all say.
Deleteworse case we win 3-2 and a win is a win.
we're pretty sure we can take sexshir and the other singles sleeper (nigel norohna). piece of cake gaycorns
wow... fob squad goes from a sweep to 4-1 to now 3-2.
Deletesomeone is losing confidence quickly!
lol, that was not smart, fobsquad.
ReplyDeleteblacksheep found a way to lose to dbags 2 years ago, when they were up 2-0, and failed to secure the win to go to sectionals. they have a much better team this year, but so do 5 other teams. they wont make sectionals. they will end up 5th or 6th in city
Whatever team Tuan is on its over. No 4.0 can touch him, your gonna get hammered and at the end he will be singing (can't touch this)
ReplyDeleteRistau and Lacy dont have what it takes to make it.
ReplyDeleteBlacksheep has too many outs this year. If they can't make it to sectionals this year,Ristau should kick himself and retire as captain.
ReplyDeleteAny interesting matchups in 4.0? Is Andrew Nguyen the unstoppable singles stud in 4.0 (tanking aside)?
ReplyDeleteBabu will be all over Andrew yen
ReplyDeleteFreeman has 4 guys who would smoke Andrew.
ReplyDeletei was thinking that too. an easy 6-2 6-2 too
DeleteAndre wishes at there are 4 guys that's willing to smoke him
ReplyDeleteThis years playoff is about TRANSANITY. Tuan and Alan get it folks?
ReplyDeletetransexual, tranny, yeahhhhhh
ReplyDeleteSo tough mr anonymous..
ReplyDeleteToo funny. Let's just play some tennis.
ReplyDeleteenough with the jokes. post on the houston tennis blog yall are a bunch of wannabe gangster.
Deletethe train
The train is your favorite position with your gay fob squad team.
DeleteAny thoughts on the Ladies or Mixed? No one seems to stand out for the 4.0s. Betsie's 4.5 team seems untouchable.
ReplyDeleteMike Salinas is playing but is hardly untouchable.
ReplyDeleteenough with the jokes. post on the houston tennis blog yall are a bunch of wannabe gangster.
ReplyDeletethe train
I think Tuan is a big prick and we will kick his ass tomorrow night. Death to tha Mob Squad.
ReplyDeleteyou just started something you cant finish.
Deleteafter we derail the TRAIN we will defeat Freeman and the Hurricanes.
DeleteHEY TUAN WE GOT YOUR BACK BRO... WE WILL HOP ON THE BANDWAGON AND LAUGH AT ALL YOUR JOKES…HAHA. ,KEEP IT REAL GANGSTA W/ ALL THE TATTOOS =)

DeleteCan Towle make a startng line up for the Canes? Hope he plays against Mob squad.
ReplyDeleteFuck the Mob. They are a thing of the past. It's 2012. Time to retire those senior citizens. Memo to Freeman, you are next you cheater.
ReplyDeleteThe best match of the playoffs this weekend will be canes vs mob squad. Someome is getting swept.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha hahahaha
Deleteyup. singles is covered. they have 4 extra players to win doubles easily if they stack the lineups.
Deleteall this manly talk is going to get diluted by the rain tomorrow
ReplyDelete4.5 Canes only need to win 1 line of doubles, they will win Singles NO PROBLEM
