GOD BLESS THEM ALL

There are people out there gnashing their teeth, and butting their heads over who will make the finals and who have made the finals of Wimbledon. And I am one of them. As I predicted there will be a Williams sisters final, and I am pleased about that but there seems to be no doubt that Federer and Nadal are going to be the finalists on the men's side.

If Federer wins all I can say now is God bless him, one should always admire excellence. I will now be rooting for Nadal though, as my boy Murray is out, having come up against a phenom that is Nadal.

Poor Dementieva, such an excellent player. I had always thought she looked like a beautiful house wife, not this year though, she has changed, still beautiful but now with new muscles in the arms and legs, she looks the part of a serious athlete and it shows in her game having reached the semifinals of a grand slam for the first time. But what did she mean by it being a "family decision" about who between the Williams sisters will in Wimbledon.

I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she was having a "communication" problem. She does not seem in any way to be a devious person. But Venus was quite right to make her path clear. As a black athlete one has to be even more vigilant to nip stories or non stories like these in the bud.

I am going to sit back and enjoy the womens finals tomorrow and as I type the mens semis has just started. It will all be over on Sunday and then there is the Olympics to look forward to yeaaaa.
