Message: [QUOTE="Da_Aisijimo_Gou, post: 2839489, member: 264"] "Every time I play here, I have problems." Just BS? If not, specifically when? Surely not every time Williams has played at Flushing Meadows! "I have a daughter ..." Really? So what? Maybe some guys get away with a bit more than some women at times, but having a child is no excuse for acting in the emotionally out-of-control manner Williams exhibited. Nor should any player have any influence over which umpires ump, referees ref, line judges judge, etc. Perhaps supposed sexism wasn't enough of an excuse for Williams, so she just tossed in some [I]parent-ism[/I] BS excuse for good measure. Disagree with the call; say your piece in a fashion exhibiting you're an adult and the more mature, experienced, and accomplished player on the court. Turn the page, use the ump's purportedly unfair call or supposed theft as motivation especially when getting your arse kicked by a 20 year old upstart versus continuing to whine like a spoiled brat, then slam your racquet to the ground in a temper tantrum akin to a human your infant child's age, etc. Not that Williams appeared to be fighting back in the match, but perhaps yesterday's over-the-top actions will serve her right should a 24th major tourney win never occur. Boo hoo hoo! [/QUOTE]
