Oh yeah, there was some meaningful tennis played last night.
What was the loudest noise heard in New York yesterday? Was it a) Jets fans cheering they have a real quarterback, b) Jets fans cheering Tom Brady's injury or c) Serena Williams after she won the US Open championship.
Wow, that was some kind of celebration.
Williams clearly has her overpowering form and conditioning back, screaming her way to a 6-4, 7-6 victory over Jelena Jankovic that vaults Serena back to a No. 1 world ranking.
Serena did apologize for getting so excited after the match, but it's her father who had the quote of the night.
"I never knew Serena to be very, very excited. I knew Serena to be very, very mean. I describe her as being a combination of a pit bull dog, a young Mike Tyson and an alligator."
Uh, that's a little frightening... as is Serena's game when she's on.
