RE: OMG Serena Williams 🎾

in #news6 years ago

😭😭😭😮😭

that's the argument, but does it make any sense? lol

I'm sure you can find times where guys say worse and don't get called... And where girls say worse and don't get called and where guys say less and do get called.

One thing happening doesn't show a double-standard.

Like pass interference is called, you can always find other times of worse not being called. But it wouldn't mean "oh there's a different standard for the Steelers". Some calls get missed, some refs have different standards, yadee yada. I don't get the whole "look, this happened, therefore double-standard" thing.

Just seems random.

And classless, because it's not just about Serena. How would you like to be going about your job, and because somebody doesn't like a decision you make you get accused of being sexist?

Bad for tennis too. This kind of thing will ward off good referees and be less of a concern to people who are into being political and playing to the crowd.
