Woke up August Three in a world without Serena

   What a match, what an ending. Big Woman in all that humidity in the third set just a few months after the Oscar slap.....I thought she might collapse. 

   A friend from Alabama texted you could see the sweat on her legs. I was thinking put race aside and She was Liston and a White Ali was about to take her out. She kept going down four in the bottom of the ninth--that metaphor needs work--down four in the third set. But she kept hittin line drives powerful shots and saved five match points. And then she got to that drop shot and I thought she goes gonna stumble and take the net  out and that's how she'll be re remembered, her final shot. But she won the point

   Come back to this later as I'm on tablet and little foreign and dicey with every tap of a key. But I wanted to get this out there.

     She was great in this final singles match., Great Setting. The Serbian or Czech girl was almost Lincolnesque in her victory comments turned authentic tribute

   Straight outta Compton, God Bless America Oracene and all of em, even Spike Lee. Race Pride, they did it, America rose to this occasion
