You might be right. I should probably let folks who can't stand the thought of a woman not being perfect or even being better than them wallow in their own self pity and myopic thoughts.
Good point.

"Why qualify it with "female" ? asks the interviewer.
And McEnroe is supposed to apologize for this?

He also is refusing to apologize, per the mainstream MSN article (for the second post in thread).
And I say good for him, because this day and age when everything has to be politically gender correct for everything sucks. I miss the 90's when people could say stuff like this and it was a fun argument to have, even though back everyone would have known he was right. But nowadays though, oh lordy can't say it because it will hurt some feminine feelings as they werent born with testicles and male testosterone to allow them to compete at the same high levels that males can compete at (outside of gymnastics).

Gosh if only leftists could devise a way to regulate physical competition in sports to go along with their fabulous "everyone gets a trophy" brainchild.
What a much happier place the world would be.
Hey man, I'll give you a freaking trophy if that's what you want.
Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female, Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent.

What exactly is a "Leftist" and what does it/they have to do with this story?
BTW, McEnroe is and always has been a punk.

I didn't scan the thread but I think Johnny Mc and Ms. W. are in cahoots to set up a rematch of the RIggs v. King Battle of the Sexes. Everything 70's gets born again at some point, and there isn't an athlete alive washed up or still a champion not looking for an easy pay day. The masses would eat it up. Anybody else on that wavelength?

The funny thing is I've yet to hear a woman bring this "story" up. Perhaps I just don't know the right women.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

It happened Sunday and you commented on it Tuesday.
You grasp at any story and try to make it about political ideology.
Even super progressive ("Leftist") Mother Jones defended him

Did you read the linked Vox interview that spurred the Mother Jones article? It's pretty funny in a sad way. It's basically saying McEnroe is correct, but makes it appear he went out of his way to point out Williams couldn't beat the top men, and really has a problem with him picking 700. Says he pulled it out of thin air. Duh. Of course he did. Way to make a point.

I think Serena would kick McEnroe's ass. Not in tennis, mind you, but I'm talking street fight. Because we all now McEnroe is a white privilege *****.
