Serena Williams Loses Tennis Match, American Media Weeps

Posted on 09/12/2015 5:18:50 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper

Just grazing through the nets today, you would think a tennis player losing a match was enough to send the American media into an inconsolable frenzy.

I think they are more worked up over Serena losing then they were about the MULTIPLE COPS murdered in the past month.

Likewise, the James Blake story is getting TONS of coverage! Yet the pandemic murders of police? Under the rug.

It’s a black thing. You wouldn’t understand.

Maybe she just didn’t grunt enough.

Oddsmakers had Vinci at 300-1. There’s a lot of people weeping.

That’s why the pendulum will start to swing back towards our traditional culture. The left has gone completely mad under our current leadership. They are very suicidal pissing off those with the most weapons, which are the millions upon millions of 2nd Amendment folks, the military & cops.

The voting public is also tired of it which is why Trump is so popular.

One way or the other it’s going to end. I sincerely hope it ends via someone like Trump coming in and cleaning up.

If the military staged a coup IAW the Constitution, it would have popular support of all those mentioned above. A coup would save the nation. CWII would totally destroy it.

We hear the lamentations of the presstitutes while the rest of us are still waiting for the part where we’re supposed to care.

Sports writers don’t write about police murders. This is a bizarre post.
I was rooting for Serena Wlliams yesterday. Many conservative people were. She’s an American success story. She did it the hard way with courage and hard work.

Those two just really gross me out. Not feminine at all. They may be good tennis players, but there is no class there.

I love it when an underdog comes out on top.

Good for Vinci!

I agree with you entirely but I must point out that the 20 year olds of today have never known the sort of morals and culture you describe. For them this IS normal therefore the change required will be an entirely new experience. They are, effectively, clinging to a way of life that is corrosive, destructive, restrictive...but clinging nevertheless.

OK ... OK ...

Let’s just be “objective scientists” for a moment ...

Someone “please” tell me that the picture is photo shopped ...

“PLEASE !!!!”

I am not commenting on the merits of Serena. My post was an observation of various media outlets and their treatment of two black athletes compared to REAL tragedies.

Sorry if I wasn’t totally clear on that.

I think any American player who was going for a true Grand Slam would get the same kind of coverage.

One of my friends asked me if I could remember anybody with bigger thighs than Serena. I said yes, Earl Campbell and Bo Jackson.
