Media can now finally stop ignoring Serena Williams’ rotten behavior

“I swear to God, I’ll f–king take this ball and shove it down your f–king throat!.” — Serena Williams before a national and international TV audience to lineswoman Shino Tsurubuchi during the 2009 US Open.

Well, we media folks have done it again. We’ve taken indisputable, recurring and conspicuous facts and buried them to create a sustainable fiction in service to nervous, cautious lies.

It’s known as the Tiger Woods Media Pandering Syndrome. It’s not enough that Woods and Serena Williams were superior in their sports, among the all-time best. To that, unfiltered nonsense had to be infused:

They were the most noble to have ever played. Their unparalleled goodness may never be surpassed. They were the most extraordinarily positive influences, role models, humanitarians, offspring, spouses, parents and selfless crusaders who have touched our otherwise miserable, desperate souls.

This week, coast to coast and via all form of media, Williams was crowned as more than a world championship tennis player. She is a woman of extraordinary valor and class.

Doesn’t matter how much evidence to the contrary, and there’s plenty. It was wishful, ignorant, obligatory and unnecessary rubbish. Or are the Tiger Woods Impaired Driving Academy and the Serena Williams Charm School coming to a strip mall near you?

Rush was raked over the coals, but he was right: media and sport officials do everything they can to make sure black this or that does great or is perceived as greatest ever this or that even for the rare things they are NOT known for in athletics.

He was right about Donovan McNabb. And pretty much every black quarterback since.

Never mind Kaepernick is HALFrican, and raised by (adoptive) whites, as usual.

Another example of where the privilege lies…which half do they choose to “identify” as? It’s ALWAYS black.

My Gawd! They should be nominated for sainthood!

Yes, notice how Serena is in every commercial.

Vanessa May as well have disappeared from the sport scene as Idont watch tennis, and she has no endorsements. I didn’t know she was still in it.

They left the court last night after they got their prodigious asses handed to them without signing any autographs and ignoring the fans totally.................

As always, a class act.

I wonder if the products she is representing are seeing any positive returns. To me, she is fundamentally unlikeable and a turn-off. Also wonder how long she'll keep getting those gigs once her playing days are over.

Tyson at least seems like a likeable person. If you don’t piss him off.

The US OPEN is unwatchable this year, has gone full woke, actually I renamed it, The Serena Closed. Annet Kontveit, was absolutely frozen playing Serena the other night. I honestly believe she was terrified of what was happening in the stadium, the audience was THE worst I have ever seen, screaming during points, booing her and I almost have to believe if Konveit had won the match they would have rushed the court and ripped her apart. Last night, for the first time ever, their prime time match was a first round womens double event, starring Venus and Serena. Because of that, they delayed Nadals match for well over and hour.

Tennis has always pandered to boorish but superb players.

Yep around one, it was an absolutely amazing thing to watch. Rafa lost the first set at 2-6, completely out of it, flat on his feet and uninspired, he later said it was the worst start of his career. Came back won 6-4, 6-2, 6-1. BUT in the fourth set, he bizarrely made a shot, his racquet hit the court, bounced up and smacking into the bridge of his nose. He staggered, went to his bench and literally collapsed on the ground, bleeding pretty badly, thought he was done.. He laid there with his eyes closed, dazed while he was treated. Got up and finished the match. I think the next time we see him he will have two black eyes.

I honestly don't think those two Williams things are actually women, let alone human.

Sounds like I’m not missing much by not watching tennis.

Yep, Unfortunately many middle and upper middle class white people think it is very infra dig to speak of the Great Mr Wood’s um, er, morally challenged behaviors. I once spoke for a couple minutes to some of the wife’s friends comparing Mr. Woods actions with those of the even more odious Pete Rose and commented on how many people nationwide defend Wood’s just as many people to this day in the Dayton-Cincy area defend the wretched Mr. Rose’s illegal actions. The wife was upset, told people didn’t to hear ‘negative comments’.
