Hmmm...Virtual or Real Life???

Hello Bloggers,

I just wanted to know which style would you prefer playing tennis? Virtual or Real life???

Wii Tennis by captainsticky.

OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR OR

Tennis 04 by Nicko @ Wider-Angle.com.

I guess the people who don't want to deal with the sun would rather play tennis on the Nintendo Wii. The people who really want to learn how to play tennis would rather go outside and play. Both to me are very entertaining! I would probably prefer the actual playing tennis outside. But on one condition...the sun cannot be extremely hot and the wind cannot be extremely wild!!!

Don't Stop Believing...

I truly do think that what Serena Williams did at the US Open tournament was not nice or professional at all. Since this event there has been so many harsh words on youtube.com about Serena....and when I say hash words I mean HARSH WORDS!!!

This is the latest news:
The Grand Slam Committee Administrator has determined that Serena Williams had committed the Grand Slam Major Offense of Aggravated Behavior for her misconduct.

View Image

The decisions and penalties are as follows:
-Serena Williams is fined 175,000! And that will be reduced to 82,500 if she is not convicted of another Major Offense.
-She is suspended from either the 2010, 2011, or the 2012 US Open tournament.


If you do not know what happened at the US Open here is a video...

Tennis former #1 is interested in becoming a clothing designer!!!
The world of tennis has definitely opened many doors for her career
and she has been able to experience them and fashion is one of them!!!
Sharapova has also been a model on several magazine covers but still
wants to become a designer rather than a model!

OMG! THAT WAS VERY HARSH!!!


*Ms. Williams is guilty of the Major Offense of Aggravated Behavior

*At first it was very shocking and it still is! A quick question though...
There were so many tennis players who had acted with Aggravated
Behavior and had not been criticized by it like Serena Williams has.

WOW!

Yes, he did it again

   Switzerland's Roger Federer shows off his 2009 ATP World Tour Champion trophy presented to him during the ATP World Tour Finals tennis at the 02 Arena in London, Wednesday, Nov. 25, 2009.

A GRUNT COACH!?!?!...DID SHE JUST SAY THAT SHE HIRED A GRUNT COACH!?!?!?!

Why does Maria Sharapova have a GRUNT coach???

???...View Image...???

Sharapova says, "I had a coach to hone my ground strokes and another to fix my serve, so it made perfect sense to find someone who could perfect my grunt".

She went to a lady named Monica before every big tournament to improve the pitch of her screech. Not only did Monica improve the length and volume of her screeching, but most importantly, she helped Sharapova develop special screeches for different situations in the match. She said that if she was losing then she would break out with a scream that sounded like she had come home to find her dog brutally murdered. Sharapova and her grunt coach called it "Dead Dolce." Then there was the one she used when returning serves on a break point. It was an extended moan with a touch more bass than her standard scream. Before she met Monica, she was just a noisy teenager with some promise. Monica made me a Grand Slam Champion....Horayyy!!!


This is a video of her grunting...listen for the man
in the crowd that rudely yells "shut up" at 1:07!

LOOK WHO IS BACK @ #1...

AND IT IS...

Serena Williams

...SERENA WILLIAMS!

- After she won the China Open Tennis Tournament last Monday, Serena Williams took Dinara Safina's #1 spot in the world. It is great to see Serena back at #1. Does she deserve though? Well, I think she does. Even though she caused such a huge upset at the US Open Tennis Tournament, I am still a big fan of hers. There are so many tennis players who had made upsets! Why draw all the attention on Serena Williams? Thats what I don't understand. They are making this issue a big deal. She apologized already. Serena is not the same as her sister Venus Williams because she is more open and will show how she really feels. But yeah just think about it. Does she deserve to have the highest ranking in women's professional tennis?
