The Serena Williams Meltdown: "You Cannot be Serious!"

Ummm, why are people making such a big deal over the Serena Williams outburst? She just had what I call a "McEnroe moment". I personally don't care for tennis but I could watch footage of John McEnroe lose his temper all day long. That's entertainment (poor sportsmanship aside). Serena is no different. I could go on, but this is my light and fluffy corner so I won't. All I will say is race and gender definitely played a part in the strong reaction to Serena's behavior. What’s more, the issue is further complicated by the widely different expectations of athletes who play particular sports (e.g. - is it more acceptable for a contact sport player to display aggression for some reason?) So another athlete had a hissy fit. Big deal!
It gets better (see the 1 minute mark)...
