And apologies to Ruth, but I do love watching American football although my team, the Oakland Raiders, has been in the pits for too long now. Now watching golf is another story.............zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. To each his own I guess:) Just wondering, has there been anything in the British press about Serena Williams and her sister not being placed on Centre Court at Wimbledon? There's been some going on about it over here. |

Brenda Harvey Posts: 297 Joined: 28th Mar 2011 Location: USA | quotePosted at 20:19 on 25th June 2011 At least where I live in the US, Wimbledon has always been rather a big deal. When they preempt regular television programming for it, it must be something special. I've watched it since I can remember which is a very long time:) |

British attitude is 'Oh well there's always next year'. At least Murray has a bit of that attitude. |
