Serena Williams unleashed her wrath again on another U.S. Open official when she was called out for on court hindrance during Sundays womens final. Williams, who may have now tarnished her charmed comeback after injuries and medical problems kept her off court for almost a full year, ultimately lost the match and tournament title to Australias Samantha Stosur, 6-2, 6-3.

Williams, 29, and Stosur, 27, were in the first game of the matchs second set when the Australian went after Williams forehand shot. But just before the ball hit Stosurs racket, Williams belted out Come on! Stosur barely tapped the ball, and the score went from 30-40 to deuce.

Eva Asderaki, the chair umpire at Arthur Ashe Stadium, gave Williams a code violation and a point penalty giving the game to Stosur.

Reacting to the decision, Williams did not quite have a repeat of her 2009 on court calamity, when she physically threatened a lineswoman who called her for a foot foul in an obscenity-ridden rant.

The decks come in very limited quantities this summer and 10Deep is sending their skate team to New Orleans, Seattle and Los Angeles in honor of the release to visit their favorite skate shops previewing the new decks and to hang out and film.

Orisue Skate team recently went to Arizona to skate in the Phoenix AM contest. Check out some of the trip above!

From Jeff at Orisue:

I just recently took some of our team out to Phoenix for the Phoenix AM contest. We did a little filming along the way, and also captured all the dumb shit and situations that we as skateboarders are able to get ourselves into as well. It’s always fun seeing one of these edit’s after you get back form a trip. Cj even fucked around and got 3rd place with a trick that people are still talking about…yeah, I’m talking about that frontside bigspin to frontside lipslide down the handrail in his run (check it at 3:30).

I think this will be a great thing for all involved, except the Eagles. One reason is because I don’t think Andy Reid was ready to part ways with the soon to be 34 year old veteran. He still had a year left on paper with the Eagles, And though I don’t think they would’ve given him an extension, for some reason I think Andy would’ve liked to see Donovan play it out. Although Reid put the word out that he was entertaining offers a few weeks ago to the coaches and GM’s. I don’t think he was the brains behind that move. i think this was above him. Another reason is because of where he eneded up. Why send him to Washington? Now he gets to play the eagles twice. I’m sure he has those days marked already. The other reason is the Eagles don’t have sufficient QB to fufill the role. I mean the 2nd round pick, Kevin Kolb, and Michael Vick doesn’t exactly fit the bill if you ask me. Philly is a hard place to play and an even harder place to play for. My sympathy gees out to Kolb and Vick, who will be expected to do nothing other than win.

Now McNabb is headed to the great QB coaching of Shanahan. This will be great! He’s still a prime QB, despite the fact that he hasn’t played a full season all but once in the last six. He’s a post season shoe in. I’m glad he didn’t end up with the Raiders. He wouldn’t have a shot! I’m calling this the craziest QB trade since Brett to the Vikings.

Get’em Donovan!

Congrads to Duke & Coach K, as well as UCONN women and gents. I think both of those guys need new day jobs. More complicated ones. NBA, WNBA!
