Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
Q. I came across a quote of yours from when you were 14 saying you hoped to retire from tennis at 25 and become a paleontologist.
VENUS WILLIAMS: That sounds really boring. I'm glad I wisened [sic] up. Don't need to be playing around in sand at 30 years old. Doesn't make sense. Neither do I want to go to school for eight years right now, so...

Re: Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
 Are you really that offended for paleontologists or are you just looking for trouble/attention?

Re: Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
I am just surprised she would look down on scientists like that

Re: Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
Have you never even seen Friends Kworb? 
It's ok to make fun of Paleontologists.
It is a very boring job unless you're extremely interested in dinosaurs. It's not for everyone

Re: Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
I don't think she was serious. However if I was a paleontologist, I wouldn't like how she describes this job.

Re: Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
How can she say that.
Ross was the best character on Friends by far.

Re: Venus Williams disrespectful to paleontologists
I would be curious to know how many WTA players know what a paleontologist does?

 Dont be silly - everyone has the right to insult the WS and their father. Its not like they made womens tennis what it is today, so even a small snippet of an interview is open to total scrutinising from all posters. Duh
