re: Top Serena Williams Angry Moments

I was speaking of the general sentiment thrwon around here about her being a b word ( or whatever disparaging term used about her) I never claim you personally said it and sorry if it seems I suggested you did.

you literally responded to me and quoted me directly.

Bo Jackson must be a very bad terrible sport as well and emotional with his constant bat breaking.

I just said her being a bad sport has nothing to do with breaking her racket. In the very last post. I guess I'll repeat myself for you. I made an observation that she breaks her racket. That doesn't make her a bad sport. Berating referees and competitors does.

You want me to bring up Baseball players , Basketball and football players who berate officials routinely ? Far far worse language ? Routinely. " Competitors" .

that would make them a bad sport as well. I don't know what you're trying to get at here. Berating officials for minutes at a time, in between sets, calling them names, threatening to hit them (Serena has done this) makes you a bad sport. Male, female, gender neutral, black, white, baseball, tennis, etc...

do you disagree?

How about instead of playing "whataboutism" and deflecting to other athletes (who are also bad sports for berating officials) you try to defend Serena, since that is the topic of discussion?

You don't have to defend her because she is black

They get tossed often.

The frick are you talking about?

Are you saying that she should have been ejected?

And I know that isn’t what you are saying, but that is the equivalence you are drawing here.
