Why not get her own back instead of whining...i doubt it was done with malice. Her boyfriend looks like a hobbit to me, that would be a good place to start.

No one could find anything on Michael Jordan until he ran into gambling problems, then there were people all over him.
Serena is a stallion....lotta dudes can't handle that so they're scared of it. That's too much woman for a sucker ass dude, but that's right up my alley.

But i certainly agree with you, there is some insidious crap going on when you hear folks denigrating Serena. I mean, steroids? Please. As if that helps in tennis, which is a finesse game. Little chicks like Monica Seles and Justine Henin used to break down big basher females all the time. And i mean DESTROY them on the court. Steffi Graf is a big girl, and i've seen Monica Seles wear her ass out on the court. I've seen Justine Henin break down Serena and Venus.

If you're a big girl, you can hit for power, and that helps on serve, but when it comes to volleying, it's practically meaningless if you can't play the game. Lindsay Davenport is a bigger girl than Serena, and hasn't had HALF of Serena's success.

So yea...some folks are just being jerks.

I can handle it too.

Fallacious accusations and basically picking apart people for every little thing, well, it's nothing new. What gets me is when I call some people out on it. It's either(chirping crickets in the room), or denial. It shouldn't surprise me because that is what racism has boiled down to these days. Racist comments don't have to come in the form of racial slurs.

I've tried playing tennis, and I would agree it's no easier game. You have to be strong and fast all at the same time. And you have to play the game for years just to get good. Steroids, as far as I know, only make you bulky, they don't make you agile and fast.

They can make you fast, and probably give you some agility, but it won't help you with ball location, and that's everything in Tennis...placing your shots. To be a winner in Tennis, your game I.Q. has to be sharp as hell. Steroids won't do a damn thing for you in that department.

Let's not discount all the anonymous males on the internet have real high standards for women's appearance when in IRL they'd be moving from woman to woman indiscriminately. If your choice of sleeping partner is leftie or righty, don't be so quick to talk down how some girl looks.

Because of anonymity, the internet encourages people to be trolls and live action role play. That's why my picture is in my profile, along with my full name, and my address is in my location. Everything I say, someone can put over my head.

Gee, lighten up and quit trying to find supposed "racism" in everything under the sun.

You resurrected a three year old thread to comment to a poster who is no longer a member here.

Wow.

She could be making fun of Sharapova since she's viewed more like a pin-up than Serena.

I don't see what the big deal is.

They make fun of each other all the time.
