    I think I speak for an overwhelming majority when I say that the womens tennis on this game is horrible and not very fun. It seems evident that no one is very much into this tournament by the amount of entrees, the # of 50/50s, and the amount walkovers. A suggestion.....the players should vote on whether or not to keep the women's tournaments in the season. I know they were included to add a little spice to things, but it just sucks! Just a suggstion....peace.

    I understand what you are saying. But I don;t think you should speak for the overwhelming majority. I think the women's game does help this league. It gives people that don't do too well in regular tournaments a chance to upset the dominant players. It's like a totally different game. We've been doing this for what, 10, 12 weeks and I think this change of pace is good. It makes people play/think differently and I believe that injects life into the league. Last tournament had less than 30 players. Th second tournament had like 60 players. The trend of people dropping out was evident way before this tournament came about.

    I am well aware that there are great people in this league: lord, eze, kinetic, federer- and I think its nice that things were shaken up here. I have been playing with the women since the game came out and I am happy that I have been doing well this tournament.

    I think it's interesting that lord will not be going for 4 in a row (granted, he defaulted) and someone is going to be a first time champoion at a league tournament tomorrow. I think that is better for everyone when people see that things can become unpredictable and there is more depth.

    I understand what you are saying Ragin, but I think the womens tournament is a major boost to the league.

    Ragin, I bet you anything that if you would have won, you would be loving this girl stuff. Any good player would learn to adapt to the girls, and take it as another challenge. And from whom I have spoken to, only two people hate is. You, and my girlfriend, because its takes out time away from each other. :)

How about me, kineticz, eze, stratton, lord, federer, squidman, zain67.....those are just off the top of my head because they are the only guys i talk to on the net regularly....and they all agree with me...just for the record...

    lol

    I absolutely hate the womas game. Not worth spending the time to make a new chick. I vote it should be taken out of the league. I for sure won't be entering the next chickfest!!!

    Well I'll have to throw my two cents in and say I like the change of pace. It makes the season a little more interesting. Can't wait for the next one. 8)

    Still didn't like getting beat by "Oprah" though. lol

    variety, diversity, change of pace, etc. etc. etc.

    even i was ousted at the 1st round, i'd say lets keep the womens. if people would not like to participate, so be it. but please dont let the womens championship be deleted for the sake of other people who find it very entertaining and challenging.

    lol

    Fair enough, i guess for some strange reason people actually like the womas game. Let it stay but i really fear a low turnout in the next one. Is it really worth having a tourney of like 16 people if that??

    I think you guys have nothing more to do then complain about stuff.

    Like I said more then one time, you don't have to play here. I rather have people that enjoy playing then those that complain. I also rather have some of you indviduals not here anyway because all you do in whine and complain which has tore this league apart.

    Just because you are a good Top Spin player and ranked somewhere in the top 5 or 6 in the league doesn't mean we need you here. Quality attitude is more wanted here then quality players.

    hahahahhaha....what is this, hitler germany???? can we not voice suggestions/dissatisfactions/or opinions without getting blasted?? lol, holy alligator droppings. everyone else calmly, collectively, and nicely stated their disagreements with lord and i, but you get all defensive and go hitler on us. if you don't want us to discuss anything that borders bordering controversial, make it another "unwritten rule" dude...geezus...hey strats, pass the peace pipe or chill pills to babolat. geez!!! peace!

    babolat, come on man...no reason to get upset and mean and talk like u want ppl out of the league, thats not cool...they were just saying they dont like the women's league and thought a lot of ppl felt the same way so having a vote would do something. BUT , obviously after reading the post replies, they see that a lot of ppl want it so they backed off like LON did.
    This league is awesome cuz it has all types of players. Some are annoying to some and others are annoying to others. It all comes with the territory of online gaming. In the end, we make a community that is enjoyable for everyone. And if u, the head of it, isnt enjoying it, then i dont now,thts just not right. As the head, i would think u would be moderate (as u have been in the past) and always keep a neutral tone (regardless of ur stance) and just simply lay down the rules rather than creating an environment that will set up arguments and hostility.
    Sorry that was my 12 cents.

    Posting something that says "WOMEN TENNIS SUCKS" is really fantastic for this leagues and for those new people that want to join.

    Think about it.

    if ppl actually get upset by other ppl complaining, thats just...well it shoulndt happen because them complaining is not ur problem, let them complain or say GLITCH or whatever, after all what they are complaining about usually doesnt effect u does it? no.

    Man, this is crazy. I think women's tennis in Top Spin sucks too, but I don't think I'm keeping people from joining the league just for saying that. I don't think that the arguing within the forums is hurting anything. If everything was polite and there were no disputes, what fun would that be? No rivalries would be made and there wouldn't be as much competitiveness. I don't know if I'm just speaking for myself, but the only reason I check the forums for posts is to see what drama is going on at the time...who's feuding with who. It just wouldn't be as fun without it.

    The EZ One

    By the way, I don't dislike women's tennis b/c I lost of b/c I'm sexist. If I was a female, I would be EXTREMELY pissed about this game. Why is it that they can't run with only one hand on the racket??? And why in the world do they look ~*~* when they're hitting groundstrokes. It's ridiculous! But, I will be signing up for the next female tourney. Gotta get points any way possible, lol.
