Already a shocker...Venus bites the dust. America haters rejoice!

I always root for them to lose and lately they have been. Having followed tennis along with playing the game myself since the 1970's, their family, especially their father is the biggest blowhard racist, maybe worse than Ubama, I have ever seen. Of course the dad is fairly quite now, since there isn't much to brag about.
I'll wait for the race card to be thrown down, but I have never felt this way about any other black tennis player. If the Williams had the grace and class of Arthur Ashe and many others, I wouldn't feel this way.
The dad is the worst, and it seems the apples didn't fall far from the tree. They're occasionally well behaved when they win....when they lose though...oh boy. Then again I used to love the old time battles between McEnroe and Connors. I don't like watching robots play either.
Wonder who the first big upset will be???
Venus comes across as very unlikeable which is why people like myself cannot relate to her , however strong she was a few years back . Race and Colour have nothing to do with it ,other than for those who are sick .
After all we love those great American black players , McEnroe and Connors .
Upsets in the making....Gulbis def. Berdych and Falla def. Isner.
