Re: Community Thread LXI: The President We Deserve
I'm not a big tennis fan but I'm rooting for Venus to win Wimbledon today.
Serena gets a ton of credit for arguably being the best woman player ever, but if Venus wins, this will be her 6th Wimbledon title!
Hard to believe.

Re: Community Thread LXI: The President We Deserve
The Williams sisters are basically part time tennis players now and full time business women and models, so it still amuses me when people say women's tennis is more competitive than ever when they still don't have good enough challengers or may be the Williams sisters are an entirely dominant pair in their sport unlike any we've seen.
Edit: Just as I say it Venus loses.

Modeling ruined Kournikova and Sharapova. Not complaining though.

I'm kinda shocked no spiritual heirs have come up to take the place of he Williams sisters.
Almost 20 years since they burst onto the scene and we will still haven't seen any other young black American women enter tennis like it was widely thought worth the Williams sisters dominance of the sport.
It's shocking that they are still winning regularly, their dominance is legendary
USA Celtics in full effect. Amazing chemistry building experience right there for the main core of the team
Proceeds to finish 7th and shames the entire nation!

Its also crazy that there's a woeful under representation of black women in tennis compared to virtually every other athletic field. You'd have thought the Williams sisters breaking through would open the doors for a lot of others.

So I recently started a new job this week. By the looks of things I'm probably going to have a lot of downtime so I might pop back in here with a bit more frequency.

don't listen to much sports talk radio on the weekends... Mark Willard formerly of ESPN 710 is still alive and and has a show on Fox sports AM570 and he's still as delusional as ever...lol

Ya, he's usually on with Rob Parker on saturdays and Chris Broussard on Sundays, I actually kind of like him and broussard together. Hearing him everyday would remind me why I didn't like him that much though. Once a week is good
