Ummm... are we sure this is standard terminology? Google gives about 12 hits for "Squeeze Play Theorem", and about 5 of which are in some way related to this page, or to some other post by Temperal. I'm not sure where Temperal learned that name, but like, no one else calls it that. I think this page should be called "Squeeze Theorem" or "Sandwich Theorem" (how do you change the titles of pages?)
