Everyone has heard about the stories of Lambert violent behavior, and Serena'sthreatening lines toward the line judge at the US Open. Both of these stories shined a negtive light onfemale athletes. But I heard worse comments about Serena's story ove Lobo's.
When it came to Serena Williams and the comments she made, people said things like "I can't believe she would lose her temper like that. She should be able to control her emotions." Her fans and sports fans in general are disgusted by her behavior. Serena is an adult she should be able to control her emotions, and have responsibility for her actions. At the same time she is an athlete and she got angry like any passionate athlete would in a big game.
Elizabeth Lambert lost control at her soccer tournament in a game. She played very violently, even brought it to pulling a player downto the ground by her ponytail. She also tripped a girl right in front of one of her players clearing the ball and that caused the girl to get kicked square in the face with the ball. Lambert aso piunched another player in the back for absolutely no reason. A lot of people were surprised at the behavior that Lambert displayed during this game. Most people were surprised because female athletes are not supposed to behave like that. Lambert even said in an interview, "I let the intensity of the game get to me." I'm sorry but you pulling a girl to the ground b her ponytail is not because of the intensity of the game. I can not begin to explain why she did what she did, but people made a bigger deal out of Serena's over reaction than Lambert's actions.
They are both athletes and they both lost control. With the reactions from the fans it seems like people think Serena's story is worse. What do you guys think about each of these athletes story?
