Venus Williams' Father Checks Interviewer During Childhood Interview

[godkiller]

The difference between him and the Coli Militant is that he put his all into that shyt.
When I talk about going hard in life all I get is a bunch of excuses on here.
Dude is not like the typical complainer on here.

I never said race wasnt an issue...but when I tell folks fukk those people...get yours...All I get is stats and figures on how black folks cant do it...and im a c00n.
He is a perfect example of how the cream rises to the top. He stood by his principles and at the same time demanded excellence.
If his family can strive in a environment like tennis, while also speaking their mind...what is holding the average black person back?

Thats all ive been saying.
Nobody can hold you back if you put that work in.

Instead of focusing on people you cant control, why not focus on You and what you can control?
He controlled his environment (dont forget he had to back down nikkas in the hood too), and ignored all naysayers.
Thats a recipe for success.

You don't know what you're talking about. Unless I fukking told you otherwise, you'd still be droning on about how Richard isn't a militant and how that notion propelled him to success. You'd still be ranting like you had idea what you're talking about. You're a demagogue.

And in fact Richard gave a militant as hell interview to Howard Stern only a few months ago. He sounded worse like nikkas on the coli, as old blacks from the South often do. So in effect Richard is a successful militant. He has the same grievances as most other militants - except that he also happens to have successful daughters. One can be a militant AND successful or not-militant and successful. The two are not mutually exclusive, contrary to what you idiot cacs and c00ns like to think. It is possible for the world to fight against you and for you to succeed in spite of it. This does not mean excuses are invalid, frivolous or insignificant in many cases. It does not mean a person should eschew discussing these issues. Richard seems to enjoy discussing those issues and frequently does, as his book indicates. All Richard did was train hard, work hard and be militant. That's advisable for all nikkas. He didn't have to knowtow or stop talking about racism - and he never did.

the evil in that cacs eyes when he asked the question "why"

that's the look of the devil. that soulless, heartless gleam that you can only find in the eyes of a pure cac. the same look hitler used to have while watching jews get gassed in chambers...same look cacs gave Indians before they scalped them...same look loner cacs flash when they go to school with a bag full of weapons...same look perverted cacs have before they help a little boy/girl undress while locking the door. just an inherently evil group of individuals who know how to do nothing but bring misery and destruction to the world.

This was dope to pops

 

[I AM WARHOL]

What was so vicious/ menacing about that question. Athletes get asked that all the time. All about black excellence but old dude was clearly doing the most. Maybe if he didn't want her to be asked questions he shouldn't have oked the interview
*edit*
Just watched it again just to see if I'm missing what you guys see. Pops was overrating. Interviewer asked her why she was so confident. That's routine. I actually wanted to hear her answer too.

maybe he was overreacting a little but I'm sure that's not the first time he had to sit there and see his daughter have to answer a question like that. he spazzed but it's understandable.

How does it defeat the purpose? In get it. At some point, a black athlete is no longer supposed to have aspirations

Because he's garbage. Today was another example of his shytty play, again. You're a Jets fan I get it, but don't let this insularity of pushing your own QB in a vehicle which he isn't built for. He's no poster boy of this struggle. Some of the dudes that have been shytting on him for his top 5 quarterback aspirations, are the same dudes calling for a Vick to replace him...... that should tell you something.

 

[dem bath salts]

to Richard. He knew exactly what the reporter was up too. They stuck that arrogant narrative on those girls whole career anyway. fukking white people...

No player should be told to limit their expectations. Playing in or out of them isn't the point

Absolutely - but that isn't the overarching point here and you know it.

 

[NYC Rebel]

There is no "but."

You absolutely agree...e

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

ruined the moment, breh was making that answer mad dramatic

overbearing and protective father though, you know where they got with that

Wack. She could handle herself.

yall gettin negged and put on the cac-nore list....and I ain't done reading the thread..

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

There is no "but."

You absolutely agree...e

So what you're saying is that... this isn't a 'black' thing after all.
