SERENA WILLIAMS IS PREGNANT, WHICH IS SUPER
EXCITING.
AND HER FIANC…
IS ACTUALLY ALEXIS OHANIAN, FELLOW ARMENIAN,
AND ALSO COFOUNDER OF REDDIT.
SOME PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HAVING SOME NASTY REACTIONS TO THE
PREGNANCY, INCLUDING ONE TENNIS PLAYER WHO ALLEGEDLY SAID,
"LET'S SEE WHAT COLOR IT HAS, CHOCOLATE WITH MILK?"
RACISTS LOVE STUFF LIKE THAT.
THEY ALWAYS THINK IT'S SO CLEVER.
CHOCOLATE, BUT WITH MILK.
SO, AT FIRST I'M LIKE, OKAY, THAT WAS NOT A NICE
STATEMENT, BUT IF THAT'S THE FIRST TIME HE'S SAID
SOMETHING CONTROVERSIAL, IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.
BUT APPARENTLY HE HAS THE NICKNAME NASTY, BECAUSE HE
SAYS A LOT OF NASTY THINGS.
THE INTERNATIONAL TENNIS FEDERATION HAS SUSPENDED HIM
WHILE IT CONDUCTS AN INVESTIGATION INTO HIS REMARKS,
AND THIS COMES ONLY DAYS AFTER HE WAS REJECTED FROM THE FED CUP
MATCH, FOR HAULING MEMBERS OF THE BRITISH TEAM BITCHES.
I'M GOING TO LET THAT ONE GO.
THESE DAYS IN SPORTS YOU GET MORE ATTENTION IF YOU ARE A
BAD GUY, AND IT'S THE SAME TOMI LAHREN EFFECT.
SAY OUTRAGEOUS THINGS AND YOU WILL GET MORE FANS.
I DON'T FOLLOW TENNIS VERY CLOSELY, BUT THERE ARE A COUPLE
OF GUYS MAKING A LIVING DOING THIS, THROWING RACKETS, LIKE THE
OLD DAYS.
BUT NOW THEY ADD IN RACIST COMMENTS, ETC.,
TO GET EVEN MORE.
I THINK IT'S A BAD LONG-TERM STRATEGY, BUT IT'S KIND A LITTLE
BIT OF, LOOK AT ME DADDY, LOOK AT ME!
TRYING TO GET ATTENTION.
I SEE THAT A LOT WITH A LOT OF SPORTS COMMENTATORS AS WELL.
THERE WAS A WHOLE KERFUFFLE WITH THE BASKETBALL PLAYER WHO DIDN'T
WANT TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW HIS TEAM SUCKS, AND
HOW THEY ALWAYS SUCK WHEN HE ISN'T PLAYING.
ALLEN WEST.
NO, THAT'S NOT IT.
STEPHEN A SMITH WAS LIKE, YOU HAVE TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION.
BUT IF THE BASKETBALL PLAYERS SAID, YEAH MY TEAM SUCKS
WHEN NOT AROUND, THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO PICK UP THE SLACK,
HE WOULD GET CRITICIZED.
BUT IF HE SAYS, DON'T TEAR OUR TEAM APART, WHICH HE DID
SAY, WE ARE A TEAM, WE PLAY TOGETHER, HE GETS
CRITICIZED FOR NOT ANSWERING THE QUESTION.
EVERYONE IN THE SPORTS WORLD TENDS TO BE A DICK.
THAT MIGHT BE A SLIGHT OVER EXAGGERATION.
NOT EVERYONE, BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE.
ALL I THINK IS THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO AT LEAST LEAVE
FAMILY MEMBERS OUT OF IT, AND SO IN THIS CASE YOU ARE
TALKING ABOUT WHAT AN UNBORN BABY IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE
BECAUSE IT WILL BE BIRACIAL.
IT'S JUST, DON'T MAKE ANY REMARKS ABOUT THAT, AND
IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.
YEAH, I LIKE THAT YOU POINTED OUT THAT STEPHEN A SMITH
WAS UPSET ABOUT SOMETHING.
REALLY?
THAT'S GOTTA BE A 1ST.
I DON'T LIKE STEPHEN A SMITH.
I DON'T BELIEVE STEPHEN A SMITH, HE'S UPSET ABOUT EVERYTHING.
LOOK AT THIS PAPER, IT'S ALL WRONG.
THIS ONE IS RIGHT, BUT I'M STILL UPSET.
AND THIS PEN, IS THE WORST PEN IN THE WORLD!
I GET IT DUDE, BRING IT DOWN.
FINAL THING ON THIS STORY IS THAT UNFORTUNATELY RACISM
IS A REAL THING, AND THIS GUY IS FROM ROMANIA.
SO SOMETIMES THE RIGHT WING IN AMERICA WILL SAY, YOU THINK
WE ARE THE ONLY ONES?
WE DON'T THINK THAT, AND LOTS OF CULTURES ARE RACIST AGAINST
OTHER CULTURES.
NOT ALL THE PEOPLE WITHIN THOSE CULTURES, BUT UNFORTUNATELY
A LOT.
SO HE PROBABLY THOUGHT, ONE, I'LL SAY IT IN ROMANIAN SO YOU
DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
THERE'S OTHER PEOPLE WHO SPEAK ROMANIANS.
NOT TO THROW ROMANIANS UNDER THE BUS, IT'S ALL OVER THE WORLD, SO
THEY PROBABLY THOUGHT, HA HA, HOW CLEVER, THAT'S SO
CRAZY, A BLACK PERSON HAVING A BABY WITH A WHITE PERSON.
IT IS INCREDIBLY NORMAL, JUST CALM DOWN.
I DON'T KNOW, WE ARE CURRENTLY IN 2017,
AND THIS KIND OF STUFF IS STILL CONTROVERSIAL.
I'M NOT REFERRING TO HIS REMARKS, I'M REFERRING TO THE
NOTION OF A BIRACIAL COUPLE HAVING A BIRACIAL BABY.
LET'S MOVE ON WITH OUR LIVES, THERE ARE OTHER THINGS TO
TALK ABOUT AND BE CONCERNED ABOUT, LIKE STEPHEN A
SMITH, AND HOW HE IS REALLY REALLY RUDE.
THIS TABLE, I HATE THIS TABLE, THIS TABLE IS THE WORST TABLE IN
THE LEAGUE, WHAT THE HELL IS ANYONE DOING WITH THIS TABLE?!
