Wimbledon 2012 Begins ......... Lets' Go!!!

Five time Wimbledon Champion Venus Williams returns to the arena that has brought her so many fond memories.  The powers that be meaning the organizers of Wimbledon have done the unthinkable, she is unseeded, which is the biggest insult.  To win 5 Wimbledon championships in the tennis world, where more than 80 percent of the players who have never won 1 of the convenant trophies, seems mind boggling to me, yet it's true.  Just another affirmation of racism at its best.  It's 2012, and we still have MUCH work to do.
The Williams sisters single handedly changed the game of tennis, and brought attention to the masses about the game. 
Venus and Serena Williams are playing singles as well as doubles this year, and I have a sneaky suspicion that when the tournament gets to the finals, one of the Williams sisters if not both will be competing AGAIN for the covenant prize.  So let's GO!
