Welcome To The Land of Crocodile Tears and Remorse For The Loss of The Big 12



It is with much sadness and regret that we must pen this final blog post remembering the days of glory and fun in the Big 12 Conference.  I looked for an appropriate crocodile shedding great tears but was unable to find a willing participant; therefore, this lone sad eye will have to do.

Due to some new changes in the Big 12 Conference policy we will no longer to be able to write anything (good or bad) about any Big 12 team.  This includes not just tennis teams but any other Big 12 team.  Sadly, that means we will no longer be able to congratulate the conference champions and/or any Big 12 team that wins any post-season honors in the NCAA.  This greatly grieves me since three now-to-be-unmentioned teams did quite well this past year and some of the men did quite well in the NCAA individual tournament.  Hopefully those who do well in the future know we honor and respect them all but sadly, must remain silent.

On the bright side, we will continue to write blog posts about any other university in America and about any good officiating stories and questions we encounter in any locale other than the Big 12.  In fact, I have already washed my University of Georgia shirt and have ordered some new Texas A&M shirts to wear in this coming year...  Its hard to change my spots but I'll give it my best effort!

Sadly, I think our readers will miss a lot of good stories in the days to come.  We have surely had some great days in the past few years...

Well then, what do we do when we want to order some new large 10 + 2 gear?

Can we just wear SEC or ITA gear instead.

Just asking!!

You still order the 10 + 2 gear like always.

Why not call 'em "Baker's Dozen", since lawyers and home cookin' are such a force?
