Granted, Williams has yet to break records like Woods has and Williams' two Grand Slam titles are a drop in the bucket as compared to Woods' index of accolades and titles. But the 20-year old woman is undeniably making history. Williams' U.S. Open victory last Sunday was as much a celebration of exceptional athletic prowess as it was of femininity. She stunned her equally hard-hitting opponent, Lindsay Davenport, with 117 m.p.h. serves, eight aces, 12 saved break points and, of course, she did so in style...

Parents used to worry about children staying out late for spring prom, worry they would start breeding, but I'll bet the kids in the limos are too smart to make babies.
