    2011 US OPEN NATIONAL PLAYOFFS UPDATE LAST WEEK’S RECAP: 2010 US Open National Playoffs Runner-up Cecil Mamiit Wins in Southern California; 1999 French Open Men’s Doubles Runner-up Jeff Tarango and Former World No. 29 Patricia Tarabini Win Mixed Doubles 2010 US Open National Playoffs runner-up Cecil Mamiit will vie for another chance to return to the US Open after winning the singles title at the USTA Southern California Sectional Qualifying Tournament in Claremont, Calif., this weekend. Mamiit defeated former world No. 42 Jeff Tarango, 42, of Manhattan Beach, Calif., 6-4, 6-3, in the final. Mamiit upset No. 1 seed Luis Perez in the semifinals. Mamiit, 34, of South Pasadena, Calif., won the NCAA singles title as a freshman at USC in 1996 and has played in each of the four Grand Slam tournaments. He was a regular at the US Open, competing in either the main draw or the qualifying on 10 occasions and reaching the second round of the main draw in 1999. Mamiit also competes for and captains the Philippines Davis Cup team. In last year’s US Open National Playoffs final, Mamiit lost to Blake Strode, 2-6, 6-4, 7-6(1).

  • The Betrayal of Joe Paterno: How It All Probably Happened
    The Betrayal of Joe Paterno: How It All Probably Happened Submitted by jzadmin on Wed, 07/10/2013 - 10:54 “A lie gets half way around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” Winston Churchill "In the aftermath of the Freeh Report, the powers that be at present at Penn State should have the good graces to suspend the football program for at least a year, perhaps more.” Bob Costas, July 17th, 2012 “That doesn’t necessarily make sense.” Bob Costas, May 29th, 2013, on the underlying theory of the same Freeh Report A year ago this week the Freeh Report investigation of Penn State and Joe Paterno was released to great fanfare. Largely because of that report, most people seem to think they know the story of the Jerry Sandusky scandal. Almost all of them are at least somewhat mistaken, and most are very wrong about what actually happened. Amazingly, the average media person, because they have a stronger incentive to believe they didn’t blindly perpetrate a false narrative, appears to be even more in the dark than the typical American is about the real truth of this tragedy. After spending most of the past year and a half researching, pondering, and speaking to more people closer to the Jerry Sandusky case than likely anyone else in the world, even I am still not positive that I know exactly what really transpired in the so called “Penn State Scandal.” While I am quite certain that the largely accepted media storyline of some concerted “cover up” by Penn State of Sandusky’s crimes is false, I am somewhat convinced that we may never know for sure precisely what actually did occur.

  • The Real Housing Story
    The Real Housing Story ( Learn how Aptos has housed aspiring professional Tennis players for 20 years ) By Brent Ainsworth Professional tennis players don’t sign guaranteed contracts to play on the ATP tour. There are no signing bonuses upon turning pro. Paychecks aren’t automatically deposited on the first and 15 th of the month, and there’s no such thing as a paid vacation. If the players you see at the $75,000 Comerica Challenger this week play well, they’ll get paid well accordingly. The singles champion will nab $10,800 – not bad at all. But that’s just one lucky (and talented) guy out 32 in the draw. And potentially 28 more might’ve traveled to Seascape Sports Club just for the qualifying tournament, to fight for four coveted spots in the main draw, and failed to make it. Some players have to stop touring more because they run out of cash than because they believe they can’t win. That’s why the free housing provided by Seascape club members and other friends of the tournament is so critical. This tournament is called “75+H,” which means there is $75,000 in prize money plus hospitality, which gives the players the option of paying for their own hotel or motel rooms or stay for free with members of the host club. Usually it’s the more established pros who have experienced a level of success through the years who can afford to pay for hotels week after week. But most of the rookies will gladly take up a Seascape member on the offer and shack up with a brand new friend or family.
