Serena goes off, fashion police alert, be healed!
Serena, Serena, Serena. There is something about the French Open that brings out the worst in Saginaw's own Williams sister. The first incident, circa 2003, we'll blame on dad Richard, who put Irina Spirlea on blast by calling her a "tall, ugly white turkey." Then Serena, three years ago, went off on Justine Henin, calling her a lot of bad things (and yes, Serena had lost). The 2009 incident is two-fold in my book. Serena won her third-round match, but verbally kicked her opponent in the post-match press conference. She accused her of cheating. Serena had drilled Maria Jose Sanchez Martinez in the arm with a volley. Or so it seemed. Martinez said it hit her racket. The video appears to back up Serena. But the point did not turn the match. You won Serena. Chill.
Now, the bigger offense is her traffic cone outfit. Nike says that color is coral? Looks horrible on the terre batue and TV.
Be Healed! Apparently Magic guard Jameer Nelson followed Ponce de Leon's trail to the Florida healing fountain and may not be out of the NBA Finals due a back/shoulder/whatever injury. Whatever he's got, give some to Pavel Datsyuk.
