    No she isn't. Even though she hits pretty hard for a girl even a skinny dude like Fed hits much harder than her. Women tennis is just slow, but Serena does have a physical advantage, but no more so than maria.

    The more relevant question is:

    Would you hit it?

    I possibly would...if drunk (me).

    I'd be a bit concerned about her hitting back, though ;).

    Ok i'm pretty sure you have isues, I have no idea why you think most people are racists. I guess it is something that has happened to you, and in that case I'm sorry for you. I think there are to many people who dislike people from other race opr countries. But that is not the reason why Williams is not considered the best ever (that is what we were discussing here).

    That being said. I can understand some americans rooting against Serena Williams, because maybe they just do not like her as a player. I'm not a fan of her, I have to admit that there are few players I dislike more than her. But it has nothing to do with her being black, it has everything to do with how she handles herself on the court. It just annoys me. And I can understand others feel similar.

    Why should an american root only for americans? I Do not always root for players/teams from my country. I mostly do, but some players teams i just dislike to much (for example if Ado den Haag would qualify for a european tournament I would want them to loose).

    Furthermore you are confusion me with ATW, I never said Graff was the best of all time. i just disagree with you that Williams is clearly the best ever. I also never said that Williams is in her prime, You said that she would have won 20 GS (it is 19 actually), if she would just have won her 4 lost finals. That is a stupid argument.

    I do not include Double titl;es because that is a whole different part of the game. Haarhuis and Elting and the woodies were 4 of the best double players ever, but i would never include them in a discussion about the best ever.

    So you were rooting for Sharapova in the Gold Medal match againist Serena.. gotcha

    americans are supposed to stick together from what i know, but maybe times have changed

    i understand liking another player of another country, but whenever they are going up againist an american.. i generally root for the american. SOME people are different though

    i understand your point though

    so now we are talking about looks


    Rory Mcilroy is one of the ugliest golfers i have ever seen, but he is an athlete that is really good at what he does

    I wouldnt date Serena Williams, she isnt my type. But their are men out there who like her type. You cant judge everybody on the opinions

    By the way, you mention racism and prejudice, yet you include "no homo" in your title. What does that mean?

    Not quite sure what you are saying. But if you are saying that some whites would rather see a white beat a black - you are correct. In the same vein, there will be some blacks who want to see a black beat a white.

    You just admitted you "generally" root for the American. That implies you don't always do. What makes you special that you allow yourself (at times) to cheer for a non-American over an American, but seemingly don't allow others?

    In the Olympics arent you supposed to always root for the american, but in sports outside of the olympics its different, for instance i may say i wanted Juan Martin Del Potro to beat Andy Roddick... because i have been sick of the Roddick hype for so many years. Doesnt mean i like Del Potro over an american, ive never been to Argentina. But i had a dislike for Roddick and how he would get passes for misbehaving on the court that Serena always get rammed for by the media.

    Do you realize that 'homo' is a derogatory term? Also, why would it make one 'gay' to watch women's tennis? And, that you would consider that a negative thing (to be gay)? For someone so concerned about racism, it seems you are homophobic.

    I didn't know it was a 'rule' for Americans to always root for Americans in the Olympics. Please reference the page in the citizenship book that stipulates this. Would it be OK to root for Sharapova or another non-American over Serena because one is sick of all the Serena hype (either real or perceived)?

    even the last part.. you must be nuts


    a prime.. FOCUSED... serena destroys any wta ever

    Only Serena can show up unseeded and ranked in the 100's and win a major with no warmup tournament. She is the GOAT, you will never see another talent like her on the WTA Tour ever


    Victoria Azarenka is closer to a prime Venus Williams

    BTW it doesnt matter what you think, the experts and pundits all say she is the GOAT, and its the truth

    European Coaches try and model their games after the Williams Sisters, thats why they are destroying our juniors lol
