- Pro Sports is still pretending the Climate is not going to be a physical health factor -- getting hotter and more debilitating for animals and Humans. Well, it's not whether the climate is "going to" get hotter... IT IS ALREADY HERE!! Sport governing bodies and venues are -- and have been -- disregarding the warnings regarding the Future temperatures when it comes to outdoor events and potential injury (or even death) of fans & athletes alike. Are these financially greedy entities intentionally pretending Climate Change is not happening? Or merely gambling with their own futures, as well as the athletes' health and futures as well? It is time to pay attention to the warming trend and be empathetic toward their money-makers (athletes) -- not PATHETIC.
mandoist29-07-2026 - CORRECTION Required: Jannik is WORLD NO. 1 and not 2. "The same can be said for Sinner and Djokovic. The """"World No.2""""" cited health reasons for not going, preserving his body for the Cincinnati Open ahead of the important US Open. If he was set to participate in both, it would be a lot of tennis with him likely to win both tournaments ahead of the trip to Flushing Meadows."J29-07-2026

- It's refreshing to see a young and evolving player with enough intelligence to not fall for this 'Williams Charade'. Too bad the WTA -- and all the phony insiders -- cannot be Honest about No. 469 and put a stop to it. WTA has Qualifiers for a reason!!mandoist27-07-2026

- WTA players have been the loudest voices against the ridiculous, mentally & physically dangerous scheduling for the past 2 seasons. But now that ATP is affected, all of a sudden it's a 'legitimate' issue. The WTA / ATP fat-cats need to leave their air-conditioned offices once in a while and experience no days off!mandoist26-07-2026
- Can someone please tell Stubbs to STFU? This is not a match commentating situation (where she also cannot shut her mouth; not even for a second). This is BIOLOGY. Look it up, before you next bless us with your lack of wisdom. Better yet... have that male Olympic boxer in Algeria throw a "female" punch at you and let us know how that goes.mandoist24-07-2026
