Temper, temper, Serena

No Crip Walking Down Under this year.

 

OH MY VIRGIN EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe she shows emotion like that. What an awful person.

(Psst. Nobody tell hondo that baseball players sometimes smash bats.)

 

She still has great Titles.

 

And Hondo's trolling of the Williams sisters continues.

 

Roid rage.

Regardless of intentions, have to give hondo credit for at least starting the thread. Serena losing to 19-year-old American in QF of a Grand Slam is pretty much the biggest story of this week. Even bigger than Wes Welker's wife, whose thread is double-digit pages long.

 

I must admit I saw that picture of the unknown American who beat her and immediately tried to identify which early '90s NBA star she resembles.

 

You're a bit off on your NBA timeline. Try 1971-87 (assuming you include the ABA).

And I know you're trying to be funny, but unknown? Come on.

 

Perhaps Sloane Stephens is the NEXT big thing in American tennis; that would be nice to see. If she can take down Serena, she can take down Azarenka.

 

She's 19, right? Which would mean she was born in 1994.

As for unknown, I had never heard of her before yesterday and I think most people hadn't either.

EDIT: And as fate would have it, her father is not an NBA player but former NFL running back John Stephens. (The Wiki says he died in a car accident three years ago.)

 

I mixed her name up with Alexandra Stevenson! Oops!

And maybe I just proved your point, but as for the tennis, she's a seeded player and is considered one of the U.S.'s rising stars.

 

Larry Kenon?

 

All I did was post a video millions of people worldwide have already seen. Plus, it was a major upset.
