@ECos23692@sangeetapremi Your point is valid, but people who've achieved a high level in a pro sport, usually have to be carried off on their shields. 😉
(Borg was an exception in tennis)
Connors had to beat the hell out of Ken Rosewall. Martina played on...
Jordan and the Wizards, Foreman...

The problem with finding out that you've been fed Israeli propaganda your whole life isn't just that Israel took advantage of us, it's the realization that everyone in power, in media and government, have been lying to us all along. And that they betrayed us.
@StefanoT_PM@TheTennisLetter I actually had been rooting for Swiatek vs Williams as R1... 😉
This may be a better road: we _really_ get to see where Serena's game is, and if it's up to the mark, she basically has a tune-up before Iga.
My faith in humanity rises with every new poll showing support for Israel collapsing.
Sniping children, triple tapping emergency workers, mass murdering journalists, burning hospital patients alive, MUST be universally rejected or human civilization doesn't survive.
Even @Morning_Joe has had it with the false claims of antisemitism: "If you want to blame anybody for what happened last night, you have to blame Benjamin Netanyahu."
"The idea that you're going to be able to brutalize children and women in Gaza with bombing that looks indiscriminate on TV day in and day out for years, that you're going to be able to level half of Lebanon, that you're going to be able to continue to allow thugs to run wild in the West Bank, and brutalizing Palestinians, brutalizing Christians in Bethlehem, brutalizing Christians across that area along with Palestinian Muslims, especially Palestinian Muslims, blowing up Catholic churches in Gaza... You can blame all of this on Benjamin Netanyahu."
We’re in the final stages of capitalism. Capitalists are now consuming the government and the physical and social systems that sustain the common good. Public infrastructure, education, ecosystem protection, and healthcare are being sacrificed for short-term profit.
Jennifer Welch: “What happened in New York last night are the citizens standing up against corporations, against fascism, against MAGA, against corporate Democrats, against establishment Democrats, and this is hopefully going to sweep the entire country. Not wanting to fund a country that intentionally targets children is not radical in the least. It is radical, homicidal, and genocidal to kill kids and then to call the people who oppose that antisemitic assholes. This is the biggest bunch of gaslighting fuckery on the planet”
