I didn't get a chance to see any of it on TV. Was it way too dark for play last night?

I've been to night matches at the US Open and those are great. Granted, they've been doing it a while and know what they're doing with the lights.

I was referring to this story. -- (link) - Reagen Jun 30, 07:04 20

  - looks like it - though who knows how effective any drug testing regime is? -- (link) - Roger More Jun 30, 07:20 3

    - I just googled a bit ... the Williams' parents are both big. It's plausible that they're built that way. -- nm - loosilu Jun 30, 07:21 1
      - Oh sure - I was talking about drug testing programs generally, not the Williams sisters particularly -- nm - Roger More Jun 30, 07:28
  - their mom is a big woman as well. -- nm - loosilu Jun 30, 07:16 5
    - Their sister who doesn't play is also huge (300 or so pounds). Venus has always looked rather lithe to me however. -- nm - Diva Jun 30, 07:22 4
      - they seem to all be on the same continuum. -- nm - loosilu Jun 30, 07:23 3
        
        Serena's built like a linebacker, Venus is a gazelle. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 30, 07:25 2
        
        they're not that different, though. -- (link) - loosilu Jun 30, 07:28 [Image]
        
        *ding* A linebacker with a big ol' butt! heh! -- nm - Diva Jun 30, 07:27
- More panty shots in that gallery than in the VS catalog. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 30, 07:11 4
  - Yeah - the Herald Sun is a few steps up from a British tabloid, but they are pretty low steps -- nm - Roger More Jun 30, 07:16 1
    - It's more like a ramp, really. With a subtle slope. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 30, 07:18
  - you're not kidding. -- nm - loosilu Jun 30, 07:14
  - Is this a scientific comparison? -- nm - Beryllium Jun 30, 07:14
- Oh yeah, that. Notice how pics of the women they thought unattractive are all in the midst of them aggressively taking a shot (and doing their jobs). - Diva Jun 30, 07:08 2
  - It's this one. -- (link) - Diva Jun 30, 07:17
  - there's better articles out there on this, I just grabbed the first GN result. -- nm - Reagen Jun 30, 07:17
