lol wait. I was going to agree that with him that Serena's actions weren't above criticism, but this fools believes the problem is not with her performing a gang related act in celebration but the fact that she did it in Wimbledon stadium. Whitlock is an idiot.
 
yall do have to realize something... wimbledon.. is basically the augusta national of tennis. there's just a certain way you carry yourself there. as if its 'sacred' ground. i dont mind serena crip walkin.. but she coulda did the cupids shuffle, and it still woulda been a problem. all they expect from you at wimbledon, is a bow to the 4 corners, and a wave to the crowd.. that is your celebration dance.

Serena and Venus bucked the standard tennis decorum a long time ago. Not only that, but there is a difference between the behavior at Wimbledon the tournament and the Olympics. Yeah it was held at Wimbledon Stadium, but I don't think anyone expected the athletes to behave in the way reserved for the tournament.
 
Fuck whitlock.. it maybe in poor form.. but its just a damn dance she could have saved her self the critique.. they need to talk about how she blows the doors off of her competition she only gets the respect/praise/adulation/appreciation she deserves from TENNIS followers and not at the public at large..and i wouldnt be surprised if she is more appreciated abroad

lol What? Why would you expect that she'd get praise from people that don't follow tennis? The Williams Sisters are pretty much household names. I'd say they are plenty respected considering they compete in a sport that's probably not even Top 5 in America.

I can't agree with that. The Williams sisters are some of the most highly lauded athletes there are and definitely the most highly praised women athletes out there. And that's even more impressive considering that they both have a streak of ghetto in them and that's something mainstream media typically tries to avoid like the plague.
 
A couple of years ago, the Queen visited Wimbledon for the first time in 33 years. Serena was the reigning Wimbledon champion. She practiced her curtsy in anticipation of playing in front of the Queen at Centre Court. Wimbledon placed Serena on Court 2 and let one of the fashionable white girls play Centre Court in front of the Queen.

did shitlock or anybody else write an article on make a fuss about this or is it ok only for them to disrespect wimbledon
 
I just don't believe it was in good form to do a dance that promotes an affiliation to a street gang....I don't give a damn what the stage is...if u ain't about that life don't try to imitate it.....that is all
