John McEnroe Finally Grows Up!

Tatum_and_john Had you told me that John McEnroe would have ended up looking like the mature parent when he and Tatum O'Neill started a family I would have fainted!

A raging lunatic on the tennis Court and a volatile marriage off the Court did not bode well for Mr. McEnroe in the parenting dept.....who could have predicted that he would end up being the "sane parent" his children needed.  The mother of 3 of his children, Tatum O'Neill, was arrested last night buying crack cocaine in New York City - Ouch!!  No upside there....

Fortunately for the kids and him, they have all been enjoying a happy household (he is remarried and together with his new wife is raising 6 children total) so the arrest shouldn't disrupt the day-to-day events of these children's lives - lucky for them John McEnroe finally grew up off the Court!

Venus and Serena Williams Depression

Williams1 It wouldn't surprise me if the Williams sisters suffer from some type of mental illness - manic depression or bipolar or something else.

In some interviews they can barely wait for the question to be asked before they are spilling out the answer, happily jumping around.  Other times it's as though a dark cloud has shifted and is sitting directly above them.

Both sisters lost on the same day at this years French Open.  The post game interview with Serena was so odd - she was despondent and dark!  Her mood went beyond the despair of defeat. 

When these girls finally write their tell-all books, I bet we'll be in for quite a surprise!
