The Hype Involving Williams Is Exponentially Annoying To Me
First off, and this is aimed at you Tom Brady, are we sure that Williams is retiring?
Next like her or not, one must on one side, acknowledge her great career and on the other, her repeated failures in the last few years.
I add her behavior after two major tournament losses, the way she was “machined” to greatness, certainly of the monetary kind and thus as is my right, root against her.
She has already made a “run,” is a 3 to 2 “fave” in her next match (win it and I will “shout” your name, that to her opponent).
Some day God/G-d will ask me why I always seem to go vs the prevailing sentiment?
I will answer he/she or it, thusly (a fitting word), what is right is not always popular and what is popular is not only not always right, but often not right.
How else dear G-d, would you explain Stephen A. Smith’s (he who has a front row seat on the Williams bandwagon) rise from eating tuna? sandwiches for dinner (alas there are people with far less than that) to virtual royalty?!
Ms. Williams first name, perhaps rudely not noted above, is Serena.
While again, my opinion, her behavior after at least two major tournament losses, was/is not as bad as that of the “Serena” character on Bewitched pictured above, it constituted very poor sportsmanship.
Below a paragraph regarding the quote “what is popular is not always right and what is right is not always popular.”
If what is popular isn’t always right and what is right isn’t always popular, then we shouldn’t, Einstein is saying, derive our ethics from following what everyone else is doing. We have to look into our own hearts and minds and evaluate for ourselves if a course of action is morally right. We can’t rely on the crowd.
