You do realize that inserting "like" and "ya know" are common speech patterns among teenagers and college students. I don't quite understand how that represents "uneducated and low class".

As someone who has played competitive sports, in the heat of the moment, you some people have crazy outbursts. While she shouldn't have threatened anyone, a display of anger isn't unusual. I've seen much worse at high school basketball games.

Anything more than a fine would be completely out of order.

How Low!
Steroids Really?
maybe she should be a size 2 to "fit into the tennis world"
maybe she should have an eating disorder?
she should probably stop working out...in order to make some happy?
black women are naturally thick...look around!
maybe we too should get tested for steroids

you should meet me I am as thick as she is because I work out!

No oneis talking about Federer cursing at the chair umpire....

Society wants women to just shut up and take it...god forbid we show some emotion.

How many times has she done this?
How many times have John mcenroe and his brother done this?

Default shoving things down peoples throats

If somebody posted here "If I could I would take that F&^%ing post of yours and shove it down your f&^*ing throat I would" I think that poster would join the ranks of those listed as "not a member". Lets face it getting tennis balls shoved down your "f*&^ing throat" could not only ruin your day, it could kill you. It may even be worse than "having a racket shoved up your a$$" but the jury is still out on that.

These are very aggressive statements and most certainly intimation threats that must be dealt with harshly. Using the excuse "in the heat of the moment" would not be enough to absolve you of blame on either the court or in street life.

The good news for Serena is that she can serve from with impunity from wherever she pleases without having to worry about any foot faults for the rest of the year. The line judges have joined the ranks of the "shook ones"

Your post is a perfect example of making more of it than it is.

Did Patrick even have enough of a career to get angry about anything? LOL
