After all he has nothing to apologize for. If you apologize just to avoid drama or conflict even if the other one is in the wrong, then you jsut justify bad behaviour, that guy did right and stood up to bullies who want to force others to agree with their world view. My cheers to the guy.
“You gotta understand how dangerous it is to lie to people just so they feel good. To start ignoring the truth just so people feel better: that is dangerous!” Well said brother.
@@ACHVACTAB1 the truth, CNN just panders you people’s beliefs. One main situation I can recall is when the college student at her graduation started talking about the Texas abortion law, and but while the person on CNN didn’t agree with her wanting abortion to be done and easier they just made it seem like they did without fully saying they did. CNN is all about narratives and propaganda, they don’t care about facts
This happens in right leaning corporate press too. It’s better to find specific journalists, writers, public intellectuals, podcasters, TH-cam channel hosts, etc etc on both sides that you feel honestly represent themselves. It’s easier to judge the honesty of a single individual than a network.
This guy is clearly NOT trying to be malicious here. He’s former best in the world who clearly knows his sport. They are trying to make a bad guy out of him and he just genuinely seems confused by it.
It would have been better if instead of simply not apologizing had said something like "I'm sorry you can't handle the truth". That would have been just epic. 700th place is pretty generous anyway. The US olympic women's soccer team was beaten by a team of 15 year old boys. That would imply that the number of men better than the top women in anything athletic probably isn't a number in the hundreds, it's a number in the MILLIONS.
Or better yet, he could have apologized to the 701st best man on Earth by suggesting Serena Williams would be better than him. Oh that would have been great.
Well, if he just randomly started comparing Serena with males, it would be inappropriate because it's entirely unflattering and there is no reason to do it. However, they forced him to say his opinion on the topic. They tightened a noose around his neck and told him to jump. Him being older dude, he was completely unaware that he was dealing with vicious journalism and took the bait. They used him to produce "scandal" for views not caring in the slightest that people will want to cancel him for that. I wouldn't be surprised that they used Serena as well and that she wasn't given the full context before she replied probably thinking he was just being mean to her for no reason.
@@Pipping-Hot Very true, why should anyone apologize for acknowledging that men and women have different strengths? And Gayle irks me so much, isn't her former boss one of the richest woman in America? How is there inequality between the two genders?
A couple of things, first of all what language is this? I understood McEnroe and the interviewers but the poster is speaking way too fast and I've never heard anybody axe a question. Second, Margaret Court is irrefutably the greatest tennis player of all time. 24 single titles, 19 double titles and 21 mixed doubles titles, total 64 grand slam titles. In some slams she won the singles, doubles and mixed doubles at the same event. Why is Serena Williams even in the same conversation.
@@georgesutton9556 I never knew they went out of their way to ask why he said BEST FEMALE of all time...I thought he just randomly said she would be 700th. What the fuck is the problem then?
@@georgesutton9556 LOL...no, Court is NOT the greatest player ever. Second, Williams HAS played in majors and won both singles and doubles. 3rd....what part where you having trouble understanding? When is he speaking too fast for you? What is your native language? Is THAT the problem? Otherwise you're just objectively wrong on the other points. I mean...setting aside the different eras and how few women played, all titles from before the open era are a joke. She won the Australian "Championships," not open because they didn't invite ANYONE who wasn't Australian to play! That's how silly this is. I don't know if you just googled Court or why you don't understand the guy speaking,but ya kinda sound like a clown.
@@xiijinpingthesupremeleader1349 with what? COURT being the best? She's not even close. 11 of her "Grand Slams" were just Australian Championships that has 32 people and almost all of them were from Australia. Not the same as Graff or Williams having OPEN fields of 132 with people from all around the world. In fact 13 of her titles are from the open period at all, a clear line of demarcation...then add the Australian Open...which was a joke at that point, she's not even CLOSE to one of the greats. So.....so far below Graff, Williams, Martina...etc...etc...
Norah O’Donnell: “I’m just waiting, would you like to apologize?” John McEnroe: “Uhh, no.” Good for you John, for not only speaking the truth but believing in what you say.
Serena telling him to respect her privacy. He was responding to a question put to him, and she only says something to him because he said something she didn't like.
I knew the lefty looney media was crazy, but still I just sat there with my jaw open when they repeatedly tried to get him to apologize for his honesty. It would be like a group of men telling a woman she needs to apologize for saying a man can't get pregnant. No wonder there are so many sick people in society when kids hear this type of stuff at a young age. It's all very disturbing.
This is insane. As a woman the fact that I’m physically less strong than men doesn’t offend me the slightest. I love being a woman and there are beautiful unique qualities that are innately feminine too.
@Harvey Spellman While it would be nice to just ignore them and move on with our lives, we really can't do that. The fact that this discussion is even taking place shows why we can't ignore them anymore. Us ignoring them when they first started this mess is why we're here today. We should've set them straight from the first time they started!
@Harvey Spellman Pretty sure Serena would win every single point against you, and except for a 1000 or so elite male tennis player, every other male in tennis on planet earth. 3.5 billion (that is a really big big number).
Great podcast man. How suave is John while standing his ground. Guy is gifted with his wit while being brutally honest. My all time favorite tennis personality.
I’m a woman and I’m so glad John didn’t apologize! He’s right and he didn’t say anything wrong! Gail king is ridiculous with this narrative she’s pushing. God created men to be bigger, faster and stronger and I love it this way!
There's inherent pros and cons to being a man and a woman and our pros are supposed to complement one another. We are equal in rights and opportunities now (in western society at least) but that doesn't mean we are equal in our physical biology / our instinctual hardwiring. Equal means the same. Though we share many similar traits, men and women are also vastly different as nature intended.
@Ma Khi Sure, but you're referring to more specific traits that can vary and be molded more person to person depending on their upbringing, environment, social experiences (personality, values, ect.). I'm referring to general consensus primitive biology. There's always exceptions to the rule, but typically the man is physically stronger than the woman and has a natural inclination to provide and protect for her and any offspring they have. This is a complement to the woman that she wouldn't have independently. The woman on the other hand typically is more nurturing and provides motivation for the man whether directly and/or indirectly with her feminine energy. The personality, appearance and values determine relationship compatibility but certain qualities based on gender alone are typically universal.
Had a conversation with a D1 track athlete. She didn’t know I ran track, and still do competitively. I turn 50 next year. She runs 11.1. She was going on about men and women being equal. So, I met her at the track one day. I told her I only train for the 100m while training my two kids. At 49 years old, I beat her in the 100 in front of her coach. I then walked to my bag and pulled out my clippings from 1983, when I was 11 years old. I showed her the times she is running now is the times I ran at 11 years old nearly 35 years ago, and please don’t say men and women are equal when it comes to sports. We are equal in mind only in the workplace, not in athletics. Don’t get confused. If you can’t beat a 49 year old dude who only trains three times a week, how the hell could you beat a 21 year old, athletically prime,l man??? Stop it!!!
Okay I think you must have mistyped 14 years old because running EQUAL to 11.1 seconds for the 100m would be faster than the current record for 11-12 year olds (I looked it up) by over a whole second.
I (male) ran 11.1 at 15 years old. I did not train for this, I was just training to become a semi-professional footballplayer (tbc: soccer). I was ... let me take some time to calculate ... 5 ft 7 in and 183 lbs (so on the short and heavier side, but very muscular) an did not train even once. Just went there, had probably a late start and got a very fast time. The time would have qualified me for the national championship (in fact the winner of that championship ran 10.78 in the final, if I remember right). I'm sure in the US I would've been scouted by some track&field or even football coach, in Germany just no one at my school cared. Only my PE teacher told me he was surprised that I was that fast, but never made clear that it was at top of the country and that I could maybe become professional, if I would start training. It's kind of sad how many potential athletes are never "scouted"

People are having problems with the meaning of equality even man between man is not equal not even going in between races even man between same race are not equal and can't be DNA doesn't work that way and even now as our science allows us normally unacceptable mutations to continue their life's so when comparing in at least sports with body types considered black man white man black woman white woman if you include body techniques before woman's comes asian man than asian woman still only talking about total output it still can be overcome with training and other stuff but if a black man and white man does the same training black man will bulldoze the little guy thats just basic genetics if asian guy is trained in body movement techniques black guy won't be able to touch him again basic genetics there is no superior race or gender only superior genes and trying to put woman in front of 80kg 1.90 guy is like putting a chick in front of whatever it is called that you use to cut grass in the garden
The fact that he stood up to her when she asked if he wanted to apologize when he knew he had done nothing wrong, says a whole lot about his character. I respect the shit out of that.
The fact that they asked him if he wanted to apologize despite them knowing he'd not done anything wrong says a whole lot about their character. John McEnroe, a real legend in his field of expertise.
@Vladimir Slapko as a libtard, I completely disagree. I actually completely agree with everything John said. I agree with the owner of this channel, too. First time here, so I don't know his name. In my thinking, one of the biggest challenges we have right now is communication. We suck. Pretty much all of us. We all would benefit from an education in respectful, effective communication. As the you tube guy said, we need to have these difficult conversations. Those conversations would have so much more potential if we had more skill in communication. Name calling is always counter productive, in my opinion. Someone, somewhere is gleeful that the little people are at each other's throats. Interesting time to be alive. Best to you.
Listen here you idiot defending this sexist and racist male, your sexist position is not based at all on facts. I looked at movies and TV shows and in 82.4% of the time, the woman won the fight against the man, sometimes against several men at the same time. So learn your facts before starting to spout off nonsense.
@@jaymike3302 Yes, but poor John was put under incredible pressure from those three ' woke' panel members for even daring to say that Serena Williams couldn't beat men ranked in the top 300(?). They were unrelenting in their support of the prevailing social engineering agenda which says that women are as good as men at doing anything. John was forced into a position where he had to be seen to offering some consolation to ' inferior' women tennis players to avoid accusations of misogyny and the abuse coming his way. He wasn't really lying , the panel bullied him into making the comment.
Serena and her sister once said they could beat anyone outside 200 in mens then someone ranked 203 destroyed them and they stopped accepting challenges
One of these days they’re going to ban competitive sport at all levels to spare people the realisation that they can be less than the best at something at this rate. It already happens in some at junior levels. Ridiculous. It was also kind of sickening how they all pressured him into conforming to their social politics and when he humoured them they all chuckled and decided to be nice like a bunch of evil creatures.
The sad fact is that if they did indeed "combine" the sport and eliminate the separation between men's and women's tennis, the exact same people who are complaining about what McEnroe said would be complaining that its sexist to make women play against men.
But this is exactly what sjws should want because having a separate women's league suggest women can't compete with the men. Perhaps there should be just one sports league open to all men, women, and transgenders and if you're not good enough or good enough to make the team, then you simply don't get to participate.
I once had a confrontation about the topic with a feminist. I come from a 10 years experience in kickboxing and told her that the difference between male and female is very obvious but she insisted so I invited her to look together the results of the javelin throw (or any sports where we could compare numbers) of the last 10 Olympic games to see that female gold medalists always throw shorter than the last of the men. She had to reluctantly admit I was right.
Please don't argue with them again. Just see through bs and say a random phrase that will be completely unrelated to the topic. Nothing destroys them more than not feeding into the subject they are raising. I say this because when you fall for the bait and put your educated opinion and back it up with facts, they will call you sexist.
TRUTH!!! When I was in High School, I played on a .500 men's varsity basketball team. Our women's varsity basketball team was undefeated and defending State champs. They kept insisting they could beat us, and after repeatedly telling them there was no conceivable scenario in which that would ever happen, we finally gave in. The coaches reffed the game. Final score? 133-22!! Your right John, there's a big difference:)!
About 10 years ago, I was playing ball at my local 24hr fitness like we did every Sunday morning. My team had been dominating all morning. Next I had a young college girl who played "small town" college ball guard me. I absolutely obliterated her. I was just bigger, faster and stronger. Not a brag by any means just the truth. And I never played basketball in high school; just recreationally.
The women's soccer national team (which is one of the two or three top teams in the world ) lost many times against the men's under 15s. You can be great at the sport but if everyone is faster and stronger, you cannot compete.
Along time ago when I was in middle school, there was a rare occasion where the girls wanted to play against the boys with no handicaps. The boys wanted to play dodgeball. The girls wanted kickball, which none of the boys knew how to play, so we played them learning the rules as we went. The boys lost in the end. After that all the boys wanted a rematch, and for PE and recess we played kickball to better understand the game and get the skills. Eventually we had our rematch. I remember the score even today, 66-10 favor the boys. Good times.
I loved McEnroe because he was an America and great player. But he has the worst personality that ever picked up a Tennis racket.. If he was black he would have put out of tennis.
Do you want to apologize for telling the truth!!!?? Say that again-- do you want to apologize for telling the truth? Say it again! -- do you want to apologize for telling the truth WTF
These women are bullies. As if to say he's not entitled to his opinion. What a joke. Woke at its finest. Shameful. Good for you John for standing your ground and not caving to this BS
if its in a debate then no never apologize. if its in a personal talk and it never needed to be said as well as meant to be rude not helpful then yea say sorry. not need to be rude when stating a fact. btw i mean say sorry for being rude not stating the fact. the way you word things is just as important as the facts you state. if you word is poorly then its taken out of context and can be misinterpreted which would be worse than when stating a fact. presentation is key to everything when in a political or normal debate. facts secondary to that.
Kinda wish he would've said something like. " Why would I do that? For what?" Dig back on these aholes a little bit. These types need it. They really do.
Thank you Bro! You hit it all on the spot! This was a ridiculous interview! John McEnroe stood his ground like a normal man telling fact, and not give in to make these people feel good. No, facts are facts!
She lost alrdy once to a rank 203 guy who was quoted to be a guy who smoked alot and drank beer before tennis practices, the player braasch said he had to play like a rank 600 against serena to make the game feel fun
@@Dragoren1 He didn't just beat Serena, he beat Venus as well in that same afternoon. Very shortly after, he was downranked to I think 350 because of how poorly he performed in that very tournament.
Serena herself said on a late night TV show she couldn’t compete with the men when asked to play Andy Murray in a demonstration match, because she would probably lose 6-0,6-0 in about 20 minutes, and would be very embarrassed. She also lost in straight sets to some male pro ranked around 320, losing in straight sets. I wasn’t a big fan of McEnroe and his behavior when he was a pro, but I appreciate his honesty and candor now.
He knows things he says aren’t PC. He just doesn’t care and he won’t apologize. This is what I like about him. Tired of weak men apologizing for things they said.
@Nik Palmira i read somewhere that both Serena and her sister lost to a drunk tennis player quite easily. Not sure if true but damn that would be embarrassing if it was.
@Nik Palmira Two separate things. This is about explosive power, not how many arm curls you can do. McEnroe never had a muscular stature, but he dominated men's tennis.
What people don't understand is that without the separation of men's and women's sports, there wouldn't be nearly as much celebration for the best women in the sport because they would be completely buried by the men. Men and women are biologically/physiologically different, and that IS NOT A BAD THING!
@SketchCommon sense itself can be considered a super powers in this current world. No..... Actually it can be considered a super powers since the Dark Ages.
No you are completely wrong. Men and women not being equal is an awful thing!!! Just think of the narratives being pushed that it challenges. By being different means all these snow flakes are gonna cry and scream which I have to listen to daily. Nothings worse then an SJW crying in your ear 24/7 because reality is what it is. Facts are facts and facts over feelings. Lol
There is literally nothing controversial about what he said. It is 100 percent facts and he said it as respectfully as possible. The problem is that you can’t please these psychos and you shouldn’t even try

....and to illustrate his point, he offers a solution which is ignored. Debate over. Rubbish TV program. Futile argument. He is 100% correct and Serena should be apologising to him for belittling his achievement in a sport with competition more fierce.and populated.
@@daynelawless Really man? Neither one of them wanted a confrontation (Serena) and I think he was way classier than the shit bag asking if he wanted to apologize. He even acknowledged her prowess as a Woman Tennis Player. This is the reason I cannot stand race baiters. There is enough conflict in this world without throwing a shit bag onto center stage. If their own ratings weren't in the dumper already they never woulda tried.
As a woman I’m fed up with this never ending debate about women vs men. Women need to STOP competing with men, STOP belittling and degrading men, STOP demanding men apologise for their views and beliefs, STOP demanding men be less masculine while demanding women become more masculine. There’s an evil agenda for men and women to switch roles, to destroy our traditional roles and biological makeup, hence the traditional family unit.
They supported transgenders in their sports and now they are dominating and winning all the prizes. Recently they are crying to stop transgender in their sport and now they are banned……They supported transgender and now they are against them.
We NEED to stand up and refuse to be bullied into apologising when people are offended by facts and truth. Well done John. More of this from more people please.
It was just horrible to see John change his opinion right there on the set; most likely due to heavy pressure. I'm glad he didn't apologize, but Serena should not have instantly gone from 700 to 5th. What we saw here was a good man being torn down by on-air bullies. I now have no respect for these people...
I never understood this myself. People say what they mean and then folks get all in their feeling and somebody has to say I'm sorry. This Y I could not be a sports announcer I speak to much truth and people don't want to hear that. I do it now and its not about sports.
I think It would be a time to ask her if she wants to go against the world's current number 1 in males tennis and see who wins to show her she isn't number 1
This is disgusting. They are just throwing accusations and questions at him trying to force an apology. Yet still he answers every single question directly and honestly, but whenever he poses a question they dodge and quickly change the subject to the next accusation. Disgusting.

These two female host are so condescending and weak-minded. Almost every serious female tennis player I know enjoys hitting with men because pace is faster and game is more competitive.
on top of being tall, stronger body builds, he might even break his personal record at steals and defenses by twice the number at the very minimum. Just too powerful.
Years ago, when someone else suggested to Serena Williams that she could play the men, she said so herself that she could not compete with the top men!! She said it was a different game altogether!
As a woman that was in the U.S. Army for ten years, I'm here to say, after all my years observing other women and myself, there is ABSOLUTELY A BILOGICAL DIFFERENCE, between men and women. I knew that fact as a young girl growing up before the military but seeing it up close helped me gain a better perspective that I can share. Not all women get that opportunity. I have seen some fantastic women runners who outrun every single woman and a lot of men, but when you take the best men's runner against the best women's runner-he'll beat her every single damn time. And that's not just in running, that's just an example. I'm just talking physicality of course but the physical aspect is a big deal in the military world. Women do play important roles in service to their country, not not all jobs in the military require strength and strength alone, and not all jobs are "combat". There's a lot of "pencil pushing" going on. Men and women are both important but still remain different, biologically. Nothing wrong with that. For the record, I totally agree with McEnroe. So does Serena Williams.
I agree with you, but woman on average are better than men at some things. For example, When it comes to extreme endurance activity woman usually do better. There bodies are typically smaller and more efficient. Also I think woman can make better pilots in some cases for they can take higher g forces. When it comes to the military, let the best be the best no mater the gender.
When i was in school not so long ago we didnt have girls wrestling teams females competed with the males and dominated at a young age cuz they mature earlier but theirs a reason most girls quit wrestling before high school i wrestled one girl after high school and she was nasty technique wise and since it went by weight class she was okay she beat a kid on my team and his dad made him quit which was dumb cuz she damn near beat me and i was the captain of our team
You are rare woman in this day and age and men like me respect your honesty and integrity for admitting that and not gravitating toward what you may want to beleive inside and awknowledging the truth and accepting it for what it is
This day and age? Religions/belief systems have been around for thousands of years, the reason you have to coddle bullshit is because otherwise it's war over opinions and there will always be conflict over mere opinions because they are JUST opinions. The last thing that people who peddle belief systems want is for people to give no shit about mere opinions, it'd crumble the very foundations of what belief actually is. The current drive is to push the narrative of tolerance of any belief in order to maintain power within each respective group.
I applaud your comment & I would add to real man, real woman, real children. We are in the fight of our lives for this country against the woke crowd. Without good women like you, the battle/war could be lost. We all need each other.
The media and right wingers have taken the word “woke” from the black conscious community and perverted it into something it was never a semblance of what it is today! Your comment is 100% accurate otherwise.
Well, it is an indication or a barometer of how truthful they are on other "news" they report. Yep, this is a great yardstick or metric on what passes for truth today with the media.
I don't even understand what the fuzz is all about, I think number 700 is probably a good estimation. But why even go there? Leave the man alone if you don't want to hear the truth! Men are not woman, why else would we have separate competitions? :)
@@klaasvanstrien989 It’s not “belittling” Williams to say she’s the greatest female player ever. What’s belittling is that the interviewers don’t see that as enough of an achievement. So what they are saying is being the best woman means nothing. It’s literally the opposite side who are belittling women! 🙃🤪🙃

Exactly. It was John who judged male and female tennis players separately on their own merits. He said that Serena Williams was the best female tennis player in the world without question. Until somebody introduced question and insisted that he compared Serena Williams to all other male tennis players. They're blaming John McEnroe for the division and controversy which they introduced.
@@CoffeeConnected They are blaming John McEnroe for not seeing the emperor's new clothes that feminists demand everyone see. They are blaming John McEnroe for telling a truth no one dare speak aloud in front of the legions of the "woke" and "social justice warriors". Heaven forbid.
@@WhiteDudeMusic you do realize that far from being a counter to anything said here, what you have brought to the table only reinforces any points made.
Karsten Braasch, a German tennis player (rank 203 at the time) defeated Venus and Serena back to back with ease during the Australian Open 1998. Because they continued bragging they could beat every man outside 200. He was 31 at the time and close to retirement. He played right the day after exhausting games at the Australian Open. He deliberately played bad, like rank 600. He wasn't using his first serve to full extend, was SMOKING CIGARETTES during the challenge and still won 6:16:2 against both back to back.
I was going to post this but you beat me to it. People try and talk about how young they were like that was a handicap. Venus was in the US open finals the year before and I believe won it the year after this.
OMG! This is hilarious! You just broke the internet with this one. I've always been a fan of McEnroe for this very reason. He keeps it real 100% and I like that. 💃💃💃
one other little, tiny detail you left out................. he was hungover as well. he was drinking before and was drinking beers during. he STILL utterly beat them
I thought I remembered reading that he'd been playing golf the entire morning of the day he played both of them. They then amended their claim that they could beat any man ranked outside of the *Top 500*. I wonder if the leftist idiots have noticed that Williams isn't ranked anywhere near the top in women's tennis now days. She's now 40 and needs to call it a career already.
I was laughing so much. Much respect to him. I cant understand why some women feel belittled because men are stronger and faster. It does not make you less of a human being. We are different, get over it already.
apologize?! apologize?! that's ***john macenroe ** you're talking to....the original bad boy of tennis. does she even know who he is?! that guy has been an animal on the court. a lion among sheep. lion's dont apologize. they roar. and when they're hungry..... they eat.
Aslong as you tell the truth & state the actual facts no matter what anybody says they can't argue with that. They back themselves into a corner knowing they are wrong & in private will think that. Well done John for telling the truth & the facts. Most of us decent people were brought up to be honest & tell the truth but this new wave of virtue signalling nonsense is attempting to destroy that. Fortunately the majority of us aren't falling for it. Never apologies when you are correct & state the truth.
So let me get this straight, This all started because someone wrote that Serena is the best tennis player EVER (as in past, present, male and female) and when someone correctly amended that statement suddenly he is insulting/belittling her? No, he is stopping someone from inflating Serena's already massive ego. Yes I still remember her epic tantrum on the tennis pitch accusing an umpire of sexism.
He wasn’t even doing anything intentional to stop Serenas ego, he was just stating a physical and biological fact. He was asked to apologized, and didn’t and rightly so. No apologies for stating the truth.
Don’t bash Serena please. She herself said t way before McEnroe said is she played on the mens tour she would get smashed. Her exact words. She also then directly answered the specific question of her playing Andy Murray. Serena then explained she would get beat 6-0/6-0 and it would take five minutes, maybe ten. Again, her exact words. So, she has an inflated ego because she dominated the women’s your. Not because feminist want to put her up against dues. She said she would get smashed with the quicks
She was frustrated and she later apologized. She’s done that maybe four times in her whole career. John McEnroe, on the other hand was pretty much guaranteed to have a tantrum every time he step on the court, so don’t make it seem like Serena has a massive ego, because her ego isn’t any bigger than any other celebrity. 🙄
@@Keepdapocket the Irony here is Serena and Her sister already got beaten by a male Tennis player Back to Back in the 90's and that was a Drunk athlete in the 200's at that time.

John McEnroe got baited by liberal media propaganda. He shouldn't have indulge himself in such idiotic discourse. For that I call him an idiot. The question of "whether men are stronger than women" mustn't even arise. Of course men are stronger physically (mentally too).
Dude CNN full blown admitted to knowing Joe Rogan didn’t take horse pills but still said he did. This is a news channel that billions watch and they’re purposely spreading lies then just acting straight up mentally challenged when dealing with basic and obvious debates. I actually can’t even believe what the hell I just watched and knowing those ppl think that’s real news that ppl need to know about makes me sick
absolutely thank god I was born in the 80's and not the 00's, obviously no one is disciplined to be good people like they once were. God help us when these children get drafted for war.
I love how they took McEnroe's compliment that Serena Williams is the greatest female player to ever play the sport of tennis and made it out to be some kind of insult.
I am more appalled by the three of them putting him in such an uncomfortable position of asking him if he wanted to apologise even after he explained clearly and respectfully why he said what he said.
When I first started kickboxing, I was initially being taught by this female taekwondo champion. Highly skilled and technical fighter but very thin frame compared to me being like 215lbs at the time. I recognized she was more skilled than me on any day but we agreed I would hold back simply cause of the power and speed difference I had over her. This fact doesn't take anything away from her skill or accomplishments and I still respect her achievements.
I think that’s why people are trying to say Serena is the best tennis player. Not because she’s the actual best player but because they recognize that she is the best athlete a regarding dedication or skills
@@ouarda547 but she’s NOT! How can she be compared with the BEST in the world when she’s NEVER competed with the BEST! She’s a girl. Girls compete against girls. So in other words she has it way easier than men competing in mens competition who are literally competing with the best in the world. For a girl she’s the best. She’s the best female player. Theirs nothing wrong with that. We can’t compare men vs women because it’s just not fair nor is it valid in any way. Now on another note serena should of been kicked out for using PEDS. But nobody wants to talk about that. She’s just a full figured woman huh? Lol. Yeah right. She obviously used steroids to get so big and strong and then played like a man to destroy all the other women.
@@ouarda547 No, thats not why people are trying to say Serena is the best tennis player, power and speed simply play a big role in sports, they are a factor of skills, its that simple.
First, I’d like to thank you for putting this on your show. I think it’s ridiculous. Like you said these newscasters, trying to create a narrative that is based on lies and by the way, I was cracking up at the expressions you were having at some of the comments great show again and thank you.
@John Smith they dont , multi tasking is a myth. you can only seperate your focus on things , no such thing as multi task. yeah just had to take away their own made up acheivement, multi tasking , smh.
I don't even understand what the fuzz is all about, I think number 700 is probably a good estimation. But why even go there? Leave the man alone if you don't want to hear the truth! Men are not woman, why else would we have separate competitions? :)
America actually sucks because you are distracted by this bullshit. Just because you agree with it or just because it's true doesn't mean it's not a distraction.
The average boys high school team has 10 of 12 guys who can grab the rim and have 2 guys who can dunk. Even in high school they play above the rim. WNBA has two women in the entire league who can dunk. An average boys high school team would get 80-90% of all rebounds and beat a WNBA team by 30 points. A good high school boys team would beat the WNBA champions by 50+

Serina Williams herself said that she could not compete against male players, on Letterman August 22, 2013. She said that the men are bigger, stronger and faster. Sounds like an informed, expert, opinion, unlike the interviewers in this video.
“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is an revolutionary act” “The only people that are mad at you for speaking the truth, are people who are living a lie”
True I just commented under a TH-cam video where Lgbt people where saying that gender was a social construct and that they were all kinds of genders and all types of bodies for women and Men.

It's disturbing yet fascinating at the same time. You should look up a documentary called "the century of the self." it's long, but goes into detail how the government has used psychology and propaganda to control us. These people are being controlled and don't know it. They're acting like this because the media and the government wants them to, and they're really good at getting us to do what we don't want to.
Came to point that out. Glad someone else noticed. Poor dude got put on a talk show to get ganged up on, it's tough to win these situations because the three are getting fed lines and attacks by a team of clever producers with one goal, to make him look bad. I'm surprised he entertained it as much as he did. I'd simply have said, "maybe the number isn't 700, but there's literally no chance she is the best player of all time if you include men, end of"
1n 1998 Guy was ranked 203 had played golf before the match and beat Serena 6 games to 1 and Venus 6 games to 2 and drank a beer and smoked a cigarette between sets.
@@hydrolito the guy was Carsten Braasch from Germany and his best ATP singles ranking 36. The sets against both Williams were played when he was close to going into retirement. No further comment needed.
He also told newspapers that he played on the level of a rank 600 player to keep things interesting. After that the Williams changed their boast of “being able to beat any man ranked outside #200” to “any man ranked outside of #350”. But never played another man to prove it.

Exactly. Never apologize for a from the gut comment.
He still is my favorite tennis player, when I first saw this before he said it ain't going to apologize about what.
Everyone who doesn't agree with McEnroe is full of satanic energy. They can't help but 🤥
“You gotta understand how dangerous it is to lie to people just so they feel good. To start ignoring the truth just so people feel better: that is dangerous!” Well said brother.
Ur talking about Democrat 101 Lie even when the truth doesn't hurt you : it's called CNN - MSNBC
It's called propaganda.
@@ACHVACTAB1 the truth, CNN just panders you people’s beliefs. One main situation I can recall is when the college student at her graduation started talking about the Texas abortion law, and but while the person on CNN didn’t agree with her wanting abortion to be done and easier they just made it seem like they did without fully saying they did.
CNN is all about narratives and propaganda, they don’t care about facts
This happens in right leaning corporate press too. It’s better to find specific journalists, writers, public intellectuals, podcasters, TH-cam channel hosts, etc etc on both sides that you feel honestly represent themselves. It’s easier to judge the honesty of a single individual than a network.
Yup. It’s like the “everyone gets a trophy” ideology.
This guy is clearly NOT trying to be malicious here. He’s former best in the world who clearly knows his sport. They are trying to make a bad guy out of him and he just genuinely seems confused by it.

exactly he is just telling his opinion.
Exactly.
Yeah it's the cancel culture pushing the women are just as good as men agenda!
Had to get you to that 1k mark. Great comment.
Proud of John that he didn't apologize. They tried to browbeat him. He stood his ground. Thanks for the podcast.
And he had them laughing by the end of the segment. He handled this situation like a boss.
browbeaten by this insufferable panel...who cares.
she had to jump in he was about to ask an awkward common sense question.
I have NEVER had a MOMENT'S respect for McEnroe....until now.
The fact that they want him to apologize for saying something that is undeniably true 😂
It would have been better if instead of simply not apologizing had said something like "I'm sorry you can't handle the truth". That would have been just epic. 700th place is pretty generous anyway. The US olympic women's soccer team was beaten by a team of 15 year old boys. That would imply that the number of men better than the top women in anything athletic probably isn't a number in the hundreds, it's a number in the MILLIONS.
Or better yet, he could have apologized to the 701st best man on Earth by suggesting Serena Williams would be better than him. Oh that would have been great.
People need to start taking offense so this. How dare she make such an outrageous request.
Well, if he just randomly started comparing Serena with males, it would be inappropriate because it's entirely unflattering and there is no reason to do it. However, they forced him to say his opinion on the topic. They tightened a noose around his neck and told him to jump. Him being older dude, he was completely unaware that he was dealing with vicious journalism and took the bait. They used him to produce "scandal" for views not caring in the slightest that people will want to cancel him for that. I wouldn't be surprised that they used Serena as well and that she wasn't given the full context before she replied probably thinking he was just being mean to her for no reason.
Welcome to Marxism
The answer that he said he wouldn't Apologize, earns him even more respect than I already have for him, a real man.

And Gayle irks me so much, isn't her former boss one of the richest woman in America?
How is there inequality between the two genders?
The fact that they’re asking him to apologize for being honest shows you how the media works.
A couple of things, first of all what language is this? I understood McEnroe and the interviewers but the poster is speaking way too fast and I've never heard anybody axe a question. Second, Margaret Court is irrefutably the greatest tennis player of all time. 24 single titles, 19 double titles and 21 mixed doubles titles, total 64 grand slam titles. In some slams she won the singles, doubles and mixed doubles at the same event. Why is Serena Williams even in the same conversation.
@@georgesutton9556 I agree
@@georgesutton9556 I never knew they went out of their way to ask why he said BEST FEMALE of all time...I thought he just randomly said she would be 700th.

@@georgesutton9556 LOL...no, Court is NOT the greatest player ever.
Second, Williams HAS played in majors and won both singles and doubles.
3rd....what part where you having trouble understanding?
When is he speaking too fast for you? What is your native language? Is THAT the problem?
Otherwise you're just objectively wrong on the other points.
I mean...setting aside the different eras and how few women played, all titles from before the open era are a joke. She won the Australian "Championships," not open because they didn't invite ANYONE who wasn't Australian to play! That's how silly this is.
I don't know if you just googled Court or why you don't understand the guy speaking,but ya kinda sound like a clown.
@@xiijinpingthesupremeleader1349 with what? COURT being the best? She's not even close. 11 of her "Grand Slams" were just Australian Championships that has 32 people and almost all of them were from Australia.
Not the same as Graff or Williams having OPEN fields of 132 with people from all around the world.
In fact 13 of her titles are from the open period at all, a clear line of demarcation...then add the Australian Open...which was a joke at that point, she's not even CLOSE to one of the greats. So.....so far below Graff, Williams, Martina...etc...etc...
He’s 100% spot on how dare they ask him to apologize for speaking the truth
I know...made me want to throw up.
Norah O’Donnell: “I’m just waiting, would you like to apologize?”
John McEnroe: “Uhh, no.”
Good for you John, for not only speaking the truth but believing in what you say.
McEnroe is not great at admitting that he's wrong when he's wrong, it's a lost cause to try to force him to do it when he's right.
Serena telling him to respect her privacy. He was responding to a question put to him, and she only says something to him because he said something she didn't like.
Everyone knows that Norah is weaker than 58-year old McEnroe
Norah is so angry here. She thinks Serena would be ranked in top 5 among men. That's why John said it in jest.
The purpose of the apology is to HUMILIATE you! 🤣
I’m a woman and John is absolutely right. This is not a conversation I’d ever believed I’d witness. These news people have sold out to lies.
I knew the lefty looney media was crazy, but still I just sat there with my jaw open when they repeatedly tried to get him to apologize for his honesty. It would be like a group of men telling a woman she needs to apologize for saying a man can't get pregnant. No wonder there are so many sick people in society when kids hear this type of stuff at a young age. It's all very disturbing.

This is insane. As a woman the fact that I’m physically less strong than men doesn’t offend me the slightest. I love being a woman and there are beautiful unique qualities that are innately feminine too.
@Harvey Spellman 💯
@Harvey Spellman While it would be nice to just ignore them and move on with our lives, we really can't do that. The fact that this discussion is even taking place shows why we can't ignore them anymore. Us ignoring them when they first started this mess is why we're here today. We should've set them straight from the first time they started!
Women have freakin super powers…they can make kids…males can’t compete in that realm (and others too!)…we all have our strengths.
@Harvey Spellman Pretty sure Serena would win every single point against you, and except for a 1000 or so elite male tennis player, every other male in tennis on planet earth. 3.5 billion (that is a really big big number).
Thank you for being a normal realistic woman whe used to love
Great podcast man. How suave is John while standing his ground. Guy is gifted with his wit while being brutally honest. My all time favorite tennis personality.
I’m a woman and I’m so glad John didn’t apologize! He’s right and he didn’t say anything wrong! Gail king is ridiculous with this narrative she’s pushing. God created men to be bigger, faster and stronger and I love it this way!
Yup. If we were still fighting for basic survival we best believe we need them to be stronger and faster. Basic biology.
May God bless you
There's inherent pros and cons to being a man and a woman and our pros are supposed to complement one another. We are equal in rights and opportunities now (in western society at least) but that doesn't mean we are equal in our physical biology / our instinctual hardwiring. Equal means the same. Though we share many similar traits, men and women are also vastly different as nature intended.
Men are stronger because your gender was dictated by your daddies nutsack! Powerful stuff!
@Ma Khi Sure, but you're referring to more specific traits that can vary and be molded more person to person depending on their upbringing, environment, social experiences (personality, values, ect.). I'm referring to general consensus primitive biology. There's always exceptions to the rule, but typically the man is physically stronger than the woman and has a natural inclination to provide and protect for her and any offspring they have. This is a complement to the woman that she wouldn't have independently. The woman on the other hand typically is more nurturing and provides motivation for the man whether directly and/or indirectly with her feminine energy. The personality, appearance and values determine relationship compatibility but certain qualities based on gender alone are typically universal.
"Men are stronger and faster, we get that"
No... you don't really get it.
More like, "we get that but YOU'RE not allowed to say it because you're a man."

Had a conversation with a D1 track athlete. She didn’t know I ran track, and still do competitively. I turn 50 next year. She runs 11.1. She was going on about men and women being equal. So, I met her at the track one day. I told her I only train for the 100m while training my two kids.
At 49 years old, I beat her in the 100 in front of her coach. I then walked to my bag and pulled out my clippings from 1983, when I was 11 years old. I showed her the times she is running now is the times I ran at 11 years old nearly 35 years ago, and please don’t say men and women are equal when it comes to sports. We are equal in mind only in the workplace, not in athletics. Don’t get confused. If you can’t beat a 49 year old dude who only trains three times a week, how the hell could you beat a 21 year old, athletically prime,l man??? Stop it!!!
Okay I think you must have mistyped 14 years old because running EQUAL to 11.1 seconds for the 100m would be faster than the current record for 11-12 year olds (I looked it up) by over a whole second.
Other than that yeah I agree with you tho
Or it could have been hand-timed and whoever was timing you had really shit reaction lmao
I (male) ran 11.1 at 15 years old. I did not train for this, I was just training to become a semi-professional footballplayer (tbc: soccer). I was ... let me take some time to calculate ... 5 ft 7 in and 183 lbs (so on the short and heavier side, but very muscular) an did not train even once. Just went there, had probably a late start and got a very fast time. The time would have qualified me for the national championship (in fact the winner of that championship ran 10.78 in the final, if I remember right). I'm sure in the US I would've been scouted by some track&field or even football coach, in Germany just no one at my school cared. Only my PE teacher told me he was surprised that I was that fast, but never made clear that it was at top of the country and that I could maybe become professional, if I would start training. It's kind of sad how many potential athletes are never "scouted"
People are having problems with the meaning of equality even man between man is not equal not even going in between races even man between same race are not equal and can't be DNA doesn't work that way and even now as our science allows us normally unacceptable mutations to continue their life's so when comparing in at least sports with body types considered black man white man black woman white woman if you include body techniques before woman's comes asian man than asian woman still only talking about total output it still can be overcome with training and other stuff but if a black man and white man does the same training black man will bulldoze the little guy thats just basic genetics if asian guy is trained in body movement techniques black guy won't be able to touch him again basic genetics there is no superior race or gender only superior genes and trying to put woman in front of 80kg 1.90 guy is like putting a chick in front of whatever it is called that you use to cut grass in the garden

The sad fact is that if they did indeed "combine" the sport and eliminate the separation between men's and women's tennis, the exact same people who are complaining about what McEnroe said would be complaining that its sexist to make women play against men.

But this is exactly what sjws should want because having a separate women's league suggest women can't compete with the men.
Perhaps there should be just one sports league open to all men, women, and transgenders and if you're not good enough or good enough to make the team, then you simply don't get to participate.
World is full of hypocrites
I once had a confrontation about the topic with a feminist.
I come from a 10 years experience in kickboxing and told her that the difference between male and female is very obvious but she insisted so I invited her to look together the results of the javelin throw (or any sports where we could compare numbers) of the last 10 Olympic games to see that female gold medalists always throw shorter than the last of the men. She had to reluctantly admit I was right.
Please don't argue with them again. Just see through bs and say a random phrase that will be completely unrelated to the topic. Nothing destroys them more than not feeding into the subject they are raising. I say this because when you fall for the bait and put your educated opinion and back it up with facts, they will call you sexist.

They kept insisting they could beat us, and after repeatedly telling them there was no conceivable scenario in which that would ever happen, we finally gave in. The coaches reffed the game. Final score? 133-22!! Your right John, there's a big difference:)!
About 10 years ago, I was playing ball at my local 24hr fitness like we did every Sunday morning. My team had been dominating all morning. Next I had a young college girl who played "small town" college ball guard me. I absolutely obliterated her. I was just bigger, faster and stronger. Not a brag by any means just the truth. And I never played basketball in high school; just recreationally.

After that all the boys wanted a rematch, and for PE and recess we played kickball to better understand the game and get the skills. Eventually we had our rematch.

You better copyright that. Just saying....
Serena herself said on a late night TV show she couldn’t compete with the men when asked to play Andy Murray in a demonstration match, because she would probably lose 6-0,6-0 in about 20 minutes, and would be very embarrassed. She also lost in straight sets to some male pro ranked around 320, losing in straight sets. I wasn’t a big fan of McEnroe and his behavior when he was a pro, but I appreciate his honesty and candor now.
He knows things he says aren’t PC. He just doesn’t care and he won’t apologize. This is what I like about him. Tired of weak men apologizing for things they said.

What people don't understand is that without the separation of men's and women's sports, there wouldn't be nearly as much celebration for the best women in the sport because they would be completely buried by the men.

As a woman I’m fed up with this never ending debate about women vs men. Women need to STOP competing with men, STOP belittling and degrading men, STOP demanding men apologise for their views and beliefs, STOP demanding men be less masculine while demanding women become more masculine. There’s an evil agenda for men and women to switch roles, to destroy our traditional roles and biological makeup, hence the traditional family unit.
They supported transgenders in their sports and now they are dominating and winning all the prizes. Recently they are crying to stop transgender in their sport and now they are banned……They supported transgender and now they are against them.

@@rickmcarthur7265 spot on bro, the fact that they comparing her to a non-pro just proves the difference between men and women.
As a woman that was in the U.S. Army for ten years, I'm here to say, after all my years observing other women and myself, there is ABSOLUTELY A BILOGICAL DIFFERENCE, between men and women. I knew that fact as a young girl growing up before the military but seeing it up close helped me gain a better perspective that I can share. Not all women get that opportunity. I have seen some fantastic women runners who outrun every single woman and a lot of men, but when you take the best men's runner against the best women's runner-he'll beat her every single damn time. And that's not just in running, that's just an example. I'm just talking physicality of course but the physical aspect is a big deal in the military world.
Women do play important roles in service to their country, not not all jobs in the military require strength and strength alone, and not all jobs are "combat". There's a lot of "pencil pushing" going on. Men and women are both important but still remain different, biologically. Nothing wrong with that.
For the record, I totally agree with McEnroe. So does Serena Williams.
I agree with you, but woman on average are better than men at some things. For example, When it comes to extreme endurance activity woman usually do better. There bodies are typically smaller and more efficient. Also I think woman can make better pilots in some cases for they can take higher g forces.
When it comes to the military, let the best be the best no mater the gender.

Karsten Braasch, a German tennis player (rank 203 at the time) defeated Venus and Serena back to back with ease during the Australian Open 1998. Because they continued bragging they could beat every man outside 200.
He was 31 at the time and close to retirement. He played right the day after exhausting games at the Australian Open. He deliberately played bad, like rank 600. He wasn't using his first serve to full extend, was SMOKING CIGARETTES during the challenge and still won 6:1 6:2 against both back to back.
Lmaooooo
I was going to post this but you beat me to it. People try and talk about how young they were like that was a handicap. Venus was in the US open finals the year before and I believe won it the year after this.
OMG! This is hilarious! You just broke the internet with this one. I've always been a fan of McEnroe for this very reason. He keeps it real 100% and I like that. 💃💃💃
one other little, tiny detail you left out................. he was hungover as well. he was drinking before and was drinking beers during. he STILL utterly beat them
I thought I remembered reading that he'd been playing golf the entire morning of the day he played both of them. They then amended their claim that they could beat any man ranked outside of the *Top 500*. I wonder if the leftist idiots have noticed that Williams isn't ranked anywhere near the top in women's tennis now days. She's now 40 and needs to call it a career already.

@@hakobo2744 maybe after camera went off and he was TOLD he cant say what hes saying is why he said that, have you watched the video at all?
So let me get this straight,
This all started because someone wrote that Serena is the best tennis player EVER (as in past, present, male and female) and when someone correctly amended that statement suddenly he is insulting/belittling her?
No, he is stopping someone from inflating Serena's already massive ego. Yes I still remember her epic tantrum on the tennis pitch accusing an umpire of sexism.
He wasn’t even doing anything intentional to stop Serenas ego, he was just stating a physical and biological fact. He was asked to apologized, and didn’t and rightly so. No apologies for stating the truth.
Don’t bash Serena please. She herself said t way before McEnroe said is she played on the mens tour she would get smashed. Her exact words. She also then directly answered the specific question of her playing Andy Murray. Serena then explained she would get beat 6-0/6-0 and it would take five minutes, maybe ten. Again, her exact words. So, she has an inflated ego because she dominated the women’s your. Not because feminist want to put her up against dues. She said she would get smashed with the quicks
She was frustrated and she later apologized. She’s done that maybe four times in her whole career. John McEnroe, on the other hand was pretty much guaranteed to have a tantrum every time he step on the court, so don’t make it seem like Serena has a massive ego, because her ego isn’t any bigger than any other celebrity. 🙄

When I first started kickboxing, I was initially being taught by this female taekwondo champion. Highly skilled and technical fighter but very thin frame compared to me being like 215lbs at the time. I recognized she was more skilled than me on any day but we agreed I would hold back simply cause of the power and speed difference I had over her. This fact doesn't take anything away from her skill or accomplishments and I still respect her achievements.
I think that’s why people are trying to say Serena is the best tennis player. Not because she’s the actual best player but because they recognize that she is the best athlete a regarding dedication or skills
@@ouarda547 but she’s NOT! How can she be compared with the BEST in the world when she’s NEVER competed with the BEST! She’s a girl. Girls compete against girls.

America actually sucks because you are distracted by this bullshit. Just because you agree with it or just because it's true doesn't mean it's not a distraction.
Well said, Truth should always go over feelings
The worst NBA players would beat the best WNBA players every time.
WNBA players would be smoked by a JV boys high school team..
The average boys high school team has 10 of 12 guys who can grab the rim and have 2 guys who can dunk. Even in high school they play above the rim. WNBA has two women in the entire league who can dunk. An average boys high school team would get 80-90% of all rebounds and beat a WNBA team by 30 points. A good high school boys team would beat the WNBA champions by 50+
@@jiminy82 that’s a FACT
The WNBA uses a smaller ball too. Any decent boys high school team would win by 50+ easily.
High school.
I’m glad John is not backing down, he believes in himself! These political news hacks are the issue!
Funniest shit is when Serena defended him
Yep
Johns a fucking legend and I’m not a tennis fan at all. Most superstars would have folded and apologized for saying the obvious, but not John! New fan for life!!!
True. He never apologized for his tirades so why should he here?
@@brandonallen3289 especially bc this one isn't even a tirade, lol... perfectly rational and respectful even... AND HONEST! Such a weird world we're living in these days...
Why apologize? He’s entitled to his opinion, it just happens that his opinion is the truth.
So why would he say that and knowing that man ate stronger than women
Isn't it sad where we are that someone who speaks common sense is now a hero... he wasn't being an ass about it he was just saying.
Serina Williams herself said that she could not compete against male players, on Letterman August 22, 2013. She said that the men are bigger, stronger and faster. Sounds like an informed, expert, opinion, unlike the interviewers in this video.
“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is an revolutionary act”
“The only people that are mad at you for speaking the truth, are people who are living a lie”
That is the ultimate truth
True I just commented under a TH-cam video where Lgbt people where saying that gender was a social construct and that they were all kinds of genders and all types of bodies for women and Men.
And I said no and stood to my ground and talked about biology and facts and told them :"Facts over feelings" and they a lot of them got angry.
@@wd4440 You can’t win with those people. They never matured beyond childhood pretend land. They police your truth and thought by making you call them what they prefer to be called, rather than what they are. It’s lunacy.
Big gat damn facts!!
The liars will also be mad at the truth tellers.
This chic literally said, "there's no need to compare men and women..." Yet this whole line of questioning, bashing, shaming is happening because they want him to compare Serena to the men in tennis. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ You can't make this ish up...
The delusion is off the charts
It's disturbing yet fascinating at the same time. You should look up a documentary called "the century of the self." it's long, but goes into detail how the government has used psychology and propaganda to control us. These people are being controlled and don't know it. They're acting like this because the media and the government wants them to, and they're really good at getting us to do what we don't want to.
Came to point that out. Glad someone else noticed. Poor dude got put on a talk show to get ganged up on, it's tough to win these situations because the three are getting fed lines and attacks by a team of clever producers with one goal, to make him look bad. I'm surprised he entertained it as much as he did. I'd simply have said, "maybe the number isn't 700, but there's literally no chance she is the best player of all time if you include men, end of"
just so long as we maintain the 69 likes. For Serena
yep. Shocking how idiotic the media have become. John did well tho.
"If they can make you believe absurdities, they can make you commit atrocities."

I have no beliefs
Preach it! This is exactly what is happening today.
That's one I haven't heard from him. I'll have to keep it for future reference.
Great quote. I love that quote.
I really have to use that it’s excellent
It's hilarious. He answered an NPR woman's question. He didn't "bring it up"..."he corrected someone's ignorance" "BECAUSE HE IS AN EXPERT"
Serena played the guy ranked 201, she lost every match.
1n 1998 Guy was ranked 203 had played golf before the match and beat Serena 6 games to 1 and Venus 6 games to 2 and drank a beer and smoked a cigarette between sets.
I heard about that
@@hydrolito the guy was Carsten Braasch from Germany and his best ATP singles ranking 36. The sets against both Williams were played when he was close to going into retirement. No further comment needed.
He also told newspapers that he played on the level of a rank 600 player to keep things interesting. After that the Williams changed their boast of “being able to beat any man ranked outside #200” to “any man ranked outside of #350”. But never played another man to prove it.
I was looking for this comment
"I'm just waiting, would you like to apologize?"
Apologize for telling the truth? John should of asked her if she'd like to apologize for lying to Americans everyday. The media is despicable...
I'm disgusted with these three
And the network.
Blood is at boiling point..
@@elmerfudd6305 The level of entitlement and condescension "I'm waiting... for your apology"
I loved the instant "no" from john. He's not gonna be bullied by some asshole in heels.
Which part? Every media? Every media outlet!!! If you’re gonna complain at least direct your outrage to the folks that deserve it.
Sirwastealot
I'm on johns side
How are you reading it wrong..?
@@elmerfudd6305 Dude i know you're on his side, i was agreeing with you and expressing my disgust about those three. Especially the one who was waiting for an apology.
How did you read my comment wrong? XD
If Americans would just stop watching the news, 50% of these woke problems would disappear.
Public education is already taken over by extreme leftists.
Nah social media is 100% the leading cause of wokeness. Destroy the internet and see how many people are still woke.
@@PeacefulJoint it is still a form a "media"
It's sad they call it news... It's not! It's freaking talkshows full of self opinions!
If facts preceding emotions and words were fueled with intelligence and understanding not feelings and bias...
Great commentary. Fact based and not personal. Great job sir.
