2019 Running Tennis thread

Hyper competitive? They all are. Billy Jean. Chris Everett, Martina, Seles,... none of them threaten on court physical violence against officials. Serena is a bully, and her violent and humiliating outbursts are the worst of any champion female athlete in pro sports history. She fakes or exaggerates injuries and illnesses to avoid responsibility for losses. She pulls out more than a team of teenage boys on prom night. She’s courageous when winning and a spoil-sport when losing. She’s rarely gracious and often mean spirited and patronizing about her competition.

She can be whatever she wants, and she should be judged accordingly. She’s done nothing to make herself beyond reproach.

And big fucking deal she had a baby and eventually went back to work. As do 130,000,000 women every Year. Almost every single one of those women do it without 99.9999999% of her resources. And they do it out of necessity.

She’s a great champion. And a shitty person to the public

 

Why bring any of this up?

She’s been a great player with a great serve, great drive, and a fantastic will to win. Isn’t that enough?

 

LoL. Very similar to other professions, you racist twat.

 

The success of Serena and Venus Williams is absolutely one of the great stories in American sports.

The fact that discussions of Serena are typically centered around "Did you see what that bitch is wearing?" is pretty embarrassing.

 

but she threatened a linesperson.

 

She did. I'm clutching my pearls as we speak.

 

If she was a whitey she'd be scrappy.

 

Fiery. Hard-working. A real spark plug!

 

I still can't get over how amazing this post is.

 

LOL, sometimes I like to tweak the liberal white poster here who had his lunch money stolen in Jr. High by the black guys.

 

"But rooting for her because she’s black means you are rooting against others because they are not."

No. I have explained the concept of "race" repeatedly and variously on this board. But then the search function is not working, so I can't easily link.

 

Show us on the doll where black people hurt you.
