Probably. I loved JM. The Borg McEnroe movie last year was superb.

Anyone else see the Curb episode with McEnroe? So funny when Larry and McEnroe jot tanked up at the baseball game for being too loud laughing at Larrys 'Freak' book.

Anyway, with Williams whether she was justified in feeling aggrieved is besides the point. She completely undermined her opponents great victory by being over the top in her outrage. She should have dealt with it in another way and had the maturity to control herself. Telling the Umpire that he will never work as an Umpire again stinks of arrogance and being a spoiled brat.

Men players certainly get away with worse and I feel she was harshly treated on the court... but her reaction.. Jeez.
