Have you ever actually watched a spiderman movie or read the comic for that matter? Spiderman imposes his own set of morality on an innocent public. How many times has spider man trashed the city and taken whole buildings down just to save his girlfriend or someone close to him. Spiderman may be trying to stop an even…

That’s absolutely true, but they belong to an often shady “brotherhood” that frequently places generating revenue above the health and safety of the public, and maintains a culture that shields its worst members of any repercussions from their bad acts, regardless of the severity (up to and including murdering…

No one really cares what cops want to do, they care about what cops actually do.

She only got a warning for the coaching violation.

I just watched the match. I think Serena is an incredible player, probably the greatest women’s player of all-all-time and has elevated the sport on her shoulders.

The type of idiot this site’s visitors agree with, apparently.

You’re probably right. But it wasn’t a first violation. It was a third violation. I may be wrong, but I believe in almost any sport, the officials have a shorter fuse about a second or third violation than they do about the first. I don’t mean to minimize the hurdles Serena faces, but that first violation wasn’t…

She’s a once-in-a-lifetime talent, like Wayne Gretzky or Michael Jordan, but she also goes wildly off the rails sometimes.  There was a documentary on her that I watched, that showed in equal parts her good/great sides and her giant downsides.  The part where she explained her threatening that poor lineswoman with an…

There’s no “try” involved. Smashing a racket = code violation. It doesn’t matter who does it. The argument is whether or not that is appropriate for everybody, or for nobody. You cannot say “well, she’s a black woman so she gets to smash her racket because ‘her culture values authenticity and she’s a new mother’ while…

I may not have hit the nail on the head with my word choice here, I’ll admit, but I don’t think the article is balanced, it’s a puff job of Serena.  She lost 6-2, 6-4, and this controversy happened in the second set.  Wouldn’t it be more fair to say that Serena wasn’t feeling it today, wasn’t having her best match,…

Sorry that you're so unintelligent. 

The umpire was right on all three of those calls. It sounds like Williams thought the “coaching” warning was rescinded because she told the umpire she’s not a cheater, but of course that’s not how that penalty works. The call is made against the coach (who admitted he was coaching from the stands), so the player can’t…

Can we please stop with the Serena worship? She’s a titan of tennis, a superb athlete, but she’s not without flaws, without her faults. She’s petulant, and this isn’t the first or worst instance of abusing an official in her career.

The highlight reel should only show the cursing done after the player has been assessed one or two violations. What’s rare, even for emotional, aggressive, half-mental men and women in tennis is for those players to continue to push the umpire when they know they’re going to lose a point or game.

Here he is taking no crap from Novak

As someone who worked in a call center there's a difference between being mad and profanity and personal attacks. She totally deserved that 3rd code violation.  1st one is debateable.

You're an idiot. 

Commenter chooses to defend a hypocritical rapist who paid off her victim...fuckin loser.

Thank you for proving every stereotype to be true, you joyless piece of trash.

This is this dude’s first-ever post lol
