I adore Venus Williams. She's the only tennis player who matters. But for purposes of this discussion, neither her presence nor that of her sister helps much. And would likely lead to off-topic arguement.

Another way to look at this is , suppose the WTA had a celebrity heptathlon event (The Jackie joner Celebrity Invitational!) for the top twenty.

Who would win?
Who would be the top five?

Here are the heptathlon events, just for yoks.

Day 1
60-meter dash
long jump
shot put
high jump

day 2

60-meter hurdle race
pole vault
1000-meter run.

No Williams means no thread as others have said before. With all the allegations about juicing flying around it's a difficult question to answer.

Rude...

How is this offtopic? I guess I could have taken the time to spell out that perhaps if a tennis player qualified for Olympics in a different sport than tennis, that perhaps they are actually more athletic than just for the demands of tennis.

So, qualifying for Olympics in separate event does illustrate some form of athleticism above and beyond the scope of tennis.

Understand?

Why? Maybe because they're repetitive, and show no original thought whatso ever, just spewing up what other Williams fans have already said. Thats just mine, and others opinions though.

I like what Bandabou has to say. So get lost! :bolt:

Besides, your opinion have no credence to a William Fan.

Is the sun shining in your parts of the globe?

Besides, this is not your thread to be generating questions and answers. Therefore, why don't you go start a interesting Monica Seles thread.

Something like, "Will Monica Come back to the Tour 30 lbs. lighter" or

"Will Monica ever stop looking like she's running in quicksand"

You know, the things that would put your favorite in contention.

Why are you being so rude to me? What have I done to you? Is this thread owned by you?

And what has Monica got to do with anything I've said.

Is it hard to type with that big chip on your shoulde?

Steffi Graf. 1988 German Olympic team. 800 metres.

awwwwwl, You sound so cute. I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. K.

Just looking for some drama to get into this a.m. Since you are not taking the bait, I guess I'll go to the hip hop site and get into some Fiddy cent/Ja Rule nonsense.

Hmm....well than that´s bad,no?! For YOU,not for me! What´s wrong in saying that the Williamses are the best athletes in the tennis world?! Am I lying or something?!

This is me caring.

Why do all the Williams fans respond to my posts then if they don't believe me, wouldn't it be easier to ignore? And you're one of the few who likes what bandabou says.

No, but you're not responding to the topic.

So start your own thread if you want to ooze your off-topic statements. :wavey:

I already answered who are the best non-Williams athletes...Kim, Jen, Justine...those are some who think are the best athletes AFTER the Williamses.

It´s all cool...can´t help they are the best.

Because I' am tired of your posts. That's why. But you know this already, don't you. And you know I'm not the only one. Just had to remind you.
