    Well, here's the big question:

    Who has Richard Williams decided to win today's US Open Final - Venus or Serena?

    Maybe the answer will be obvious if Venus "retires" from the match with a hangnail.

    Personally, I couldn't give a bigger Who Cares? sentiment to the entire Williams family.

    Whoever is closer to #1 ranking, he will make her win. I think its Venus, so she will win it.

    Spike Lees' loving this!
    Did you see the other night at the Sampras vs Agassi match, they asked him a few questions...
    About the womens draw, well, he hoped to see Venus and Serena in the finals, or course
    About the mens draw...
    "Spike, and what do you think about these great champions playing here right now?"
    to which he replied," Well, boxing is different"

    HUH?!?! Wrong color I guess:rolleyes:

    I guess Spike has decided to take up a new sport now that his Knicks are scheduled to suck for about the next 5 or 6 years...

    Kind of a downer, if you ask me.
    Although Serena started playing better towards the middle of the second set, she was just having a horrible, horrible game.
    Venus didn't play all that bad, but she didn't have to be great either.

    Let's hope ths sister's don't retire soon like daddy says they will.:(

    Yeah, it was kind of disappointing - seemed like Serena only made about 20% of her first serves in the second set. And what was up with all of the foot faults?

    There was about 10 points in the match that were great to watch - really made you wish it could have lasted longer.

    Someday Serena will make Big Sis pay - I'm rooting for her as a younger brother myself - it takes time to get over that mental hurdle.

    The match was horrible. It sounded like they were both in pain on every shot. I can't stand Predator 1 or 2. :mad:
