If college tennis could catch softball, it would be huge! Softball gets good viewership on ESPN. It only seems that bloggers are complaining about no-ad scoring...not people that go to the matches. wi tennisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10016685.post-56445154318130627252016-05-27T03:43:37.084-04:002016-05-27T03:43:37.084-04:00Again, add an asterisk to the team and individual ...Again, add an asterisk to the team and individual winners these years of QCT (quick college tennis, as mentioned in previous post). That is perfect example of how skewed the results are when AA status is just given away (just like Gold Balls at the junior team event). In reference to broadcast of NCAA finals by CBS, a couple years back, I saw they were showing them on one of the many ESPN stations. You know what they were actually showing on that ESPN station? Women's softball first round regional (in Minnesota btw) over NCAA finals. There were 12 parents in the stands watching the softball game, but they show it to a nationwide audience over NCAA finals of tennis. When softball ended, I thought, great, we will catch the last half. No, they then switched to a regular season Lacrosse match. Seriously, can't make this stuff up.

No ad shortened the matches; an advantage to the underdog. If a winner was hit all match it was a lob. Just damn. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
