Venus Williams' Father Checks Interviewer During Childhood Interview

[The War Report]

White people absolutely hate it when you don't do shyt their way. :comeon2:

Tryna put a doubt in her head. She say she gone beat her ... leave that alone

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I had a discussion about it with a beat writer. Dude can't have expectations for himself? It's a trend in how blacks are treated.

Oh don't get me wrong, I agree with what you're saying. But that example caught me off guard (well... it didn't really). I hardly think shining the spotlight on Geno adds any weight to that directive.. when he's basically Jawalrus status at the moment.

 

[Supa]

You could literally see the intent in the interviewers eyes at :14-16. Once she said she was very confident.

"You say it so easily. Why?"

lol at dude getting bold with that "if you keep interrupting " just to bytch up when Richard pushed up on him.

Not being a good player doesn't mean one should be stripped of having expectations for themselves

Shes 14 years old breh and most this is most likely one of her first interviews what about her silence between the question for an extended period of time told you that she could handle this alone and why should she? Also the dad is setting the tone for all the other interviewers who wan't to pull bullshyt on children.

She was handling herself just fine.

 

[keepemup]

How the hell do you expect a 13-14 year old girl especially in a historically white sport to handle a journalist's psychologically trick questions which are used to illicit a certain response at her age?

Because she has poise, wit and grace.

No it doesn't, but that example is closer to being a delusional one than it is to being realistic. There's more cause to the commotion that he's ass cheeks and not because he's black. That's what I'm saying.... it isn't the greatest example. Chad Henne would be at too if he came out and said he'd expect to be in the top 5.

That video reminds me of Donny on this song at the 2:55 mark saying

"to be young gifted and black , we must begin to our young that there's a whole world waiting for you...but haven't you heard...that the worse has just begun."

Why is it delusional? He made it as far as being one of 32 staring players in the world at his position. So he should be like "oh... I'll stop having expectations now cuz Gil said so."

Wack. She could handle herself.

A 14 year old sports star is no competition for middle aged journalist when it comes to interviews. She probably didn't have mental maturity or background to handle the little nuances he was throwing at her.
