\"\"RUSH: I got a couple of other things I want to do, but first grab audio sound bite 21. I love it when leftists get in trouble with political correctness. I just love it. It entertains me. And the latest victim is John McEnroe. John McEnroe is in trouble because of something he said about Serena Williams. It was Sunday on NPR\u2019s Weekend Edition Sunday, and the host was Lulu Garcia-Navarro. She\u2019s interviewing McEnroe. He\u2019s got a new book out, so he\u2019s showing up everywhere trying to sell it. Guys don\u2019t know if they want to sell a book, get a copy of it to me.<\/p>\n

But, now, tennis… Tennis has been having this argument since the days of Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs. “Are women just as good as men in tennis?” “Could the best female player beat the best male?” Of course, in these current days of feminism, “Yes! There\u2019s no difference.” Of course, McEnroe didn\u2019t get the memo. So they\u2019re talking about the great players of today\u2019s game, and Lulu Garcia-Navarro says, “Let\u2019s talk about Serena Williams. You say she is ‘the best female player in the world,\u2019 in the book. In your book, you say she\u2019s the best female player.” Now, this bite\u2019s seven seconds. It goes by quickly. Here it is…<\/p>\n

NAVARRO: Why qualify it?<\/p>\n

MCENROE: If she played the men\u2019s circuit she\u2019d be like 700 in the world.<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: So the interviewer here, Lulu Garcia-Navarro, asks (translates), “Why — why — why — why would you want to qualify? Why did you have to say best ‘female\u2019 player ever? Why couldn\u2019t you just say ‘best player ever\u2019? Why did you have to say best ‘female\u2019 player?” And McEnroe just fell right into it. “Well, because if she played on the men\u2019s circuit she\u2019d be like 700 in the world,” and he\u2019s in the biggest excrement storm within left-wing PC circles today that you can imagine. But let\u2019s go back to 2013 on Letterman. This is Serena Williams herself.<\/p>\n

WILLIAMS: The men are a lot faster, and they get… They serve harder; they hit harder. It\u2019s just a different game.<\/p>\n

RUSH: In other words, McEnroe\u2019s right, but that won\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
