ExiledInIllinois Posted June 25, 2017 Author Posted June 25, 2017 that this is considered news is silly. Just fun, gratuitous reading. "News" is what you make of it. No need to be strictly serious. It's sports & entertainment "news."
RaoulDuke79 Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 I think she's more manly than most of the men, so I'd say she'd be ranked top 50.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 This just in! John McEnroe is an a$&hole. Even if he believed it to be true (and I happen to disagree), he never should have said it.

But he can say it. May say it. Always could. Glad he threw the rest of the circuit under the bus... I'd hate to see this play out Billie Jean style. ;-) I still think she should challenge him anyway.
Saxum Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 Sure she tell him that if he refuses she has bigger balls than she does. They should do it for charity with winner's charity getting 70%.
4merper4mer Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 This just in! John McEnroe is an a$&hole. Even if he believed it to be true (and I happen to disagree), he never should have said it. The reporter totally baited him: McEnroe: Best female player ever — no question. Garcia-Navarro: Some wouldn’t qualify it, some would say she’s the best player in the world. Why qualify it? Why qualify it? I mean seriously it is just ridiculous. Williams is the best female player ever and she has been great for a looooong time. Saying "700" might have been inarticulate but she certainly wouldn't be going around winning Men's Wimbledon and so what stupid reporter lady?

Augie Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 Serena is the best female player ever. I don't like her, but that's undeniable. Can she play with the men? Sure, if she doesn't mind losing. BTW - if they want equal pay (which I am totally cool with), play 5 sets when the men do. Otherwise, kiss my arse. (We had some up close time with her in practice rounds in Miami, and she is not that cute smiling face you get in interviews.....she's an evil witch!)
