S: Frank Williams. No, not the PG from Illinois (although he sucked pretty good too

So, Frank, that tennis crowd booing your girl for withdrawing from (yet another) match against her sister was racially motivated?

And I quote:

"It's the worst act of prejudice I've seen since they killed Martin Luther King."

Someone gag me with a spoon. Or a tennis racket.

Frankly, I don't know why the crowd booed. They didn't have to take in the splendour of one of your girls doing one of their famous tank jobs.

Sports need to stop being the family business they've become. We have more parents as agents and managers than ever.

For example:
Eric Lindros - His mother and father were his agent, and totally screwed with the Flyers organization. They demanded things for Eric, and essentially told the coaching staff how to make up the lines. When Lindros didn't perform well, they blamed his linemates, or better yet, the coaching staff. Now, Eric himself has become greedy and stupid, and all he has to show for it are the splinters in his ass from sitting the entire playoffs.

The Williams Sisters - Sure, they are fantastic tennis players. But their father is engineering their carrers. He is fixing tournaments, trying to keep it even between the two sisters. Why not let them go, play, and may the best sister win. That's how life's gonna be when they are 35 and retired.

I'm just tired of the whole thing. It's annoying, and adds an unwanted aspect to any game.
