Serena has lost a bunch of weight and is kicking ass.

Naomi Osaka is too much.

Naomi Osaka is too much.

She's a beast.

[pdub]

I didn't mean that positively.
Great player.
But my god, so sensitive to everything.

Oh, well...that too.

What happened now?

Of course pDub would hate that athletes speak their mind about their own mental health. "Shut up and serve."

Was upset with a perfectly fine question then left the media session yesterday.
Returned to the media today for a presser and said she should wake up every day and feel like a winner and not have to see newspaper articles ( if she lost ) that read 'collapse'.

[pdub]

She's free to say what she wants.
She's just annoying.

So when Marshawn Lynch trashes the media and speaks his mind, it's fine? Or Rory McIlroy, or Russ or Rodgers? Media and athletes have been battling for a century. Seems like you bitching because she's a woman and didn't blast the media instead of just speaking her mind.

No.
Where did I say that it was fine? Link?

If a reporter is intentionally probing to be an asshole, or writes something scathing, you have a reason to be upset -- but this,

"You are not crazy about dealing with us, especially in this format," Cincinnati Enquirer columnist Paul Daugherty asked Osaka. "Yet you have a lot of outside interests that are served by having a media platform. I guess my question is, how do you balance the two?"

Maybe Serena’s last night.
Legend.

Legend.

I think she will find the magic tonight.

Not looking great so far.
