So the crowd didn't like the one sister defaulting to the other and showed that displeasure by screaming racist slurs at them and their family? Hmm, sure that's it.

I would encourage anyone to look up the match on youtube (in three parts) ("Indian Wells final 2001") and watch first-hand the booing as Venus and her dad walk to their seats, the booing of Serena, the continuous cheering at lost points, and the booing as Serena wins match point, and the booing as accepts the winner's…

Your argument is incomplete. By IW 2001 they had already played each other professionally 5 times, including Wimbledon semi-final; playing each other wasn't a problem for them or their father. Also, Venus withdrew hours before the match, but match officials decided to announce it only four minutes before the match. An…

Interesting.

Not only dominant, but dominant for so long. I'm always amazed to still see her winning tournament after tournament.

Yeah it's bonkers, hating on objective greatness due to race reminds me of Tiger Woods (pre-cheating on his wife scandal). Like Serena Williams is the greatest women's tennis player to ever live, and possibly the greatest women athlete period. And you are alive to see that in it's prime. Like sorry but yr loss racists.

I just never get how they can hate on someone being good at something just because of their skin color or ideology or whatever else that's different. The Williams sisters are amazing at this sport and it stuns me that apparently that's not enough for people to at least be cordial to them.

People that still hate on the Williams sisters are the definition of white tears.

Most supervisors who don't suck at their job take their employees strengths and weaknesses into account as they organize their departments. Lynch is the best on the field, he draws huge amounts of fans and most importantly fan dollars with his amazing performance on the field which is the critical part of his job…

Interesting how the money keeps coming up. The players' humanity takes a back seat to their salary for some people, and you've made it pretty clear what side you're on.

His job is in the gym, at practice and on the field, to play his best for his coach and teammates, and he does that job superbly. His job is not NFL PR, or answering the same stupid questions from the same stupid hacks.

until he determines that he wants to act like an adult who is a professional athlete.

I have to disagree here. I would probably do that same thing as Lynch.

His job is to run w/ a football and not lose it. That is all.

If you as a football fan actually give 2 fucks what any football player says you're an imbecile and need to get a life.

For player safety, they should due the chance of injury.

How in the world did you reach that conclusion?

Pretty sure none of these contracts mention anything about escalating fines.

So what's the value in forcing him on stage to mumble "both teams played hard" for 15 minutes? How does that improve the fan experience?

Look at Massah. So tough.

A large percentage of those arrested had charges dropped against them or were found not guilty. How is it justice to punish people where either the criminal justice system found them not guilty or there was no trial to begin with? I am asking not as an NFL apologist, but as someone that knows the criminal justice…
