ORDER RESTORED
So much for the “Vivio’s” surge. After thrusting themselves into top spot last week, they didn’t do themselves any favors this week by picking up a total of zero points. Given, they did have the round 3 bye; however they did not play any make up matches. Now, they fall back to 5th position and once again it will appear they will be fighting to keep a play-off spot.
“Winky-Dinks” on the other hand, do what they do best: collect bonus points. Another 11 last night, giving them 29 for the three weeks, 6 better than the next best “Butter Nutz”. If only they played their matches like they turned up! They only reported 4 scores, but still have an 8 point lead over second placed “Mongoose”. “Winky-Dinks” sit out round 4 – let’s see if they also remain stationary.
Bringing up the rear are the familiar names of “Destiny” and “WallEED”. They aren’t too far behind, but everyone knows how hard is to play catch-up all season long.
“Mercedes” had another good showing this week picking up 22 points – the most of any team. They are now 4th, and have the luxury of already having the bye week. The three teams above them are yet to do that.
Being the third Dividend last night, not a lot of matches were completed, but as always we did have some close results. Josh Slominski (“Butter Nutz”) somehow managed to fend off the lob / drop attack of Jerry Rock (“Mongoose”) for a 2-1 victory; Jim Miller (“Winky-Dinks”) was too steady for Margi Scholtes (“Foss-ters”) and took a 2-1 win; Elliot Shafer (“Mercedes”) continues to impress with his 2-1 won over Scott Langenburg (“Destiny”); and Glen Milligan (“Wardogs”) was just able to edge out Nick Scavone (“WallEED”) 2-1.
Week 4 is just around the corner – make-up matches are piling up quickly for many. Better do something about them before they overwhelm…

This is Jed, If I had one question for MOHAMED EL SHORBAGY, it would be "Obviously you have heard of the 2016 Blue Chips, they may have been a bit of a Shooting star (rising to extreme glory quick and then calling it a career) if you will, but do you think they were the greatest doubles duo ever formed?"
Ryan here, if I had a follow up question to Jed's, it would be "I know that you are not a doubles player, but If given a 5 point lead in each game, could you and your brother, Marwan have taken 2 games off of The Blue Chips at their peak in 2016?"
Thanks for your time,
JEDCO

I never heard of the Blue Chips. I'm not sure why some random, unknown 2016 doubles team is relevant to the topic of DAC Boasters.
Thank you for your message.
P.S. JEDCO is #1

I also appreciate the fact that they use sustainable materials in their products, which is a big plus in my book. It's always great to see companies taking steps towards reducing their environmental impact.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Shreeji Woodcraft to anyone looking for high-quality squash court flooring in India. Keep up the great work!
