Oh lighten up man!

I never said anything about them not being great tennis players. They are. I just can stand to "hear" them play. How is me not wanting to "hear" them play make me a racist?

As far as my comment, I mean come on Serena is a big girl.

I'm sure one of them will end up in the finals and probably win the tournement, so kudos if they do, I just don't want to listen to it.

Oh and BTW Monica Seles is just as bad with her grunting.

MotleyGirl, MotleyGirl, MotleyGirl daaaahhhling. You're asking me to lighten up? that's quite humorous. You who said that Serena could play linebacker for my beloved Packers and the comments you made in regards to their, as you put it "grunting". I realize that you may not have meant it as it sounded, but I took issue with it as with everyone elses comments just to bring something to light. Do you realize how often blacks have been characterized as brutish, animalistic, huge, etc. That's why it's offensive. You mentioned Monica Seles "grunting" and I have observed that most all of these athletes do so as they volley. Are their grunts unneccessary as well or just the Williamses?
