The Denver Pos For better or worse, our American Idiocracy has come to rely on athletes as national pedagogues. Michael Jordan educated the country about commitment and just doing it. A.C. Green lectured us about sexual caution. Serena Williams and John McEnroe taught us what sportsmanship is — and is not. And Charles Barkley outlined how society should define role models. So when a single week...

I've never really been a fan (in the fanatic sense of the word) of a championship team at any level. I focus on teams because it's something completely different to be a fan of a particular player--I'm a fan of Tiger Woods, for example, and I was a fan of both Andre Agassi and John McEnroe in their primes. The individual performer is easier for me to relate to than the team. Part of this comes, no...

This ode to Serena Williams‘ ability to slide back and forth on the tennis court is brought to us by Da Big Minutes. I was just saying that somebody needs to make a song that repeats Serena’s name 45,000 times. Thank you Mr. Minutes. It’s not Tennis Ball but it’s better than anything I’d put [...] Related posts: Video: Serena Williams Rolling Out Photo Shoot Serena Williams...

LA Times man Tim Rutten is the Tor Johnson of culture critics: a slow, lumbering space zombie who takes forever to get to whatever inelegant point he's making (typically a coupla-three weeks after it's relevant). And talk about subtlety! Here he is on the RDIB (recent descent into boorishness): Our recent descent into boorishness didn't begin on the political platform but on the stage—not with...
by Kevin Blackistone Filed under: Tennis If there is one truth about outrageous behavior it is that the only people who really wind up paying for it are companies seeing an opportunity to cash in, like Volkswagen with a screaming Bob Knight or American Express with an apologetic John McEnroe or, fresh off Madison Avenue, a ballistic Serena Williams firing away at Mother Nature . But why stop at just...
As expected, Justine Henin -- who made a "definite decision" to retire last year -- announced yesterday that she would return to the professional game in 2010 . While many think this, along with the triumphant return of countrywoman Kim Clijsters, is good news for the sport, to me it only magnifies just how little depth there is in women's tennis. For Clijsters to be able to win a Grand...

Lots and lots of good reading to share this week, so let's just get right to it: First, if you are part of the Ethiopian adoption world, you have probably heard about the news report from Australia on adoption corruption. Here is a small excerpt and a few links on the story from Harlow's Monkey . This is something I really struggle with - I am 100% sure that my adoption agency is ethical and working...
POREC, Croatia (AP) Radek Stepanek overcame a record 78 aces to defeat Ivo Karlovic in five sets in one of the longest matches in tennis history on Friday, when the Czech Republic took a 2-0 lead over Croatia in the Davis Cup semifinals. Stepanek won 6-7 (5-7), 7-6 (7-5), 7-6 (8-6), 6-7 (2-7), 16-14 in a match that lasted 5 hours, 59 minutes. The longest known Davis Cup match was 6 hours, 22 minutes...
Those attempting to equate Congressman Joe Wilson’s "You lie!" outburst to the outrages of Serena Williams and Kanye West are missing the mark. He was rude, and no, he oughtn’t have done it – there. Let us understand clearly the distinction. Wilson may be rude, but Williams and West (especially) are pigs. At the semifinals of the U.S. Open tennis tournament in New York,...
