Whatever peeps. Hey maybe if they suspend or ban her or whatever, some of the other weaklings will finally get a chance to grab an elusive slam and the media will have the darling that they all require. Serena was wrong. She was fined. End of story. How many times has this girl kept her calm when calls went against her, when players cheated her outright out of points, when officials with their own hidden agendas gave points to her oppoents. During all this, this young woman kept her cool and never once did she let loose with anything resembling what happened at the USO. She snapped. Plain and simple. Would you not snap if every single time you have to be fighting the same battle. Enough. 10 years on tour and all of a sudden Serena is the most unprofessional woman in sport. Whatever peeps.

Right now I think Serena's USO prize money should be stripped from her, but if there is more to this story that we haven't heard (and Cronin is implying), I'm in for at LEAST a 2010 Aussie Open ban. I can't believe Serena said more to the woman then what we heard but if Cronin's source(s) are correct, she deserves harsh punishment for it. if this were coming from most journalists I would take the info with a grain of salt, but Cronin is one of the more respected journalists and his info is usually right on the money.

For her insulting vulgar remarks she should be suspended for the next two slams and find $100,000. We had the opportunity to see the real Serena at the US open. For her insulting vulgar remarks

I think she deserves to learn her lesson. Not because she's on the top does that mean she shouldnt be banned. This way, everyone will be reminded of their proper behavior on the court regardless of how passionate they are about their sport, right Serena?

You'll get punishment, fine, sued (or punched in the face) for such behavior on the street. I'll be very disappointed if she gets away with it.
