- coopaloop, on 07/05/2008, -2/+2That really is the story isn't it. Serena should be able to beat Venus, she's younger and has more talent, but she's just too fat.
- Herv3, on 07/06/2008, -0/+1I disagree. After watching the match, it seemed Serene's head was all screwy and had too many unforced errors.

- macaholic, on 07/05/2008, -13/+3Well doesn't Serena only have 2 Wimbledon titles compared to Venus's eight? It seems to me that Venus was the favorite.
- coopaloop, on 07/05/2008, -0/+158 Wimbledon titles? It says right in the headline 5.

- Albo23, on 07/05/2008, -15/+1Tennis sucks. I might watch them when they stop moaning RAH, MMRAH, OOMPH every shot.
- m0tbaillie, on 07/05/2008, -2/+22Ah, observe the Digger (Non-sexius Nerdius) in it's native habitat. Note that the Digger, as observed in the wild, is clearly adverse to opposing-gender sexual contact, and clearly shys away from any of the typically-expected social norms such as male-female conversation, dating, sexual intercourse, mating, skirts, breasts, long legs, asses, and hair that smells good.
- Chicken, on 07/05/2008, -1/+2Maybe you should try playing tennis then. It gets very tiring and if you play long enough you start grunting for that extra power you need.
- dcmcderm, on 07/05/2008, -17/+2Glad the neanderthal cup is over. Sharapova better make it past the 3rd round next year!
- bxblox, on 07/05/2008, -0/+3Why was this submitted? The description is about as long as the article.
- freebird09, on 07/05/2008, -1/+11Some of the comments on this page are tactless and just disgusting.
- dafragsta, on 07/05/2008, -0/+3It was fixed!
- acash0902, on 07/06/2008, -0/+2yes it was
- Menoats, on 07/06/2008, -12/+3What a mean bitch, she's one 4 already couldn't let her sister win at least 1?
- Killian35, on 07/06/2008, -0/+4Don't be a jackass. Serena has won it twice at her sister's expense.
- Pramma, on 07/06/2008, -0/+2her sister beat her twice in wimbledon finals. this is the first time venus beat serena for the title
- Menoats, on 08/12/2008, -0/+1Plus I spelled won wrong, didn't even catch that. Can you bury yourself?
- banido, on 07/06/2008, -12/+6Buried because they're ugly. I only watch this sport to see hot girls moaning.
- morgino, on 07/06/2008, -9/+5Im glad to see that the Williams brothers made it to the Wimbledon finals. Give me a groaning Russian or some tasty volleyball girls, what other reason is there to watch womens sports
- swraman, on 07/06/2008, -6/+1they are sore losers, the way serena was sayin she didnt even talk to her sis after the match.
& lol @ the article...i love how they still say it was edited by someone even though it is a 1-liner. - novenator, on 07/06/2008, -4/+4The worst part about the Wimbledon womens final is that a Williams sister had to win it. This is not a racist comment, but they are both terrible sports, they are overly aggressive, almost combative towards their opponents, non-gracious in victory, whining in defeat, and seriously have used the race card way too many times. The mens final on sunday will show the better side of tennis.
- lagannt, on 07/06/2008, -2/+3So these sisters, who are terrible at sports, ended up to compete in the finals against each other? Sorry, you got me right there. You can call them ungraceful, with no sportsmanship qualities, but saying they're bad at sports just goes right over my head.
- MazeKaz, on 07/06/2008, -1/+3First off, I'd like to say I'm not condoning the original statement, but merely clarifying it. When he said "terrible sports", he meant sportsmanship, not "terrible at sports", otherwise the rest of the argument would be out of context.

- stiffman88, on 07/06/2008, -1/+0great game. you can watch the mens final between federer and nadal at http://www.watchcabletvontheinternet.com
- 333cale, on 07/06/2008, -0/+2And the best thing is they had to walk on to Centre Court a few hours later, but this time on the same side of the net - as a team - in the Ladies' Doubles Final. They actually won 6-2 6-2 by the way, so Venus won two titles that day and never dropped a set in either of the tournaments!
- kickingback77, on 09/01/2008, -0/+1It has to be strange to have dinner with your family and sit next to your toughest competitior. Were their any other great athletes that were siblings that always played against each other in American Sports history? I think not.
