I really don't "hate" Sharapova. I say this all the time and no one seems to hear it.

I find it hypocritical for her to be against on court coaching when the rule was put into effect because of the brown bottle and banana incident at the US Open that involved - Maria. There was a hue and cry not only from fans but from the press corps that questioned her unmercifully after the incident.

As has been said upthread the barbs in the article are directed at specific players. I don't need to go into who as the person who posted the information names names. I just don't see how a woman dressed like a "slut" in the women's lounge is distracting to other women. We women have an infinite capacity to ignore people or situations we don't like unless they somehow impact on us. I'm just sayin'.

Oh, you know we women have absolutely no capacity to ignore someone we feel is dressed like a slut invading our space.

However, in reference to ignoring situations we don't like unless they somehow impact on us, TScott (and anyone else), can we please keep this from getting personal? I understand that when you feel a favorite (or, sometimes, any player) is being disrespected, it seems like a personal attack on her or his fans. But, knowing Ti, it's not meant to be. I'm sure she will understand how you feel, however, because I know how she feels when her favorites are being criticized with seemingly no reason.
