1. Don't mind the story, if there was balance and a similar story about women we find sexiest.

2. However, just another indication that Salon is getting less serious and having less serious articles by the week.

3. Was an original Premium member but no longer and I visit often and am see no reason to begin. The editorial choices are sometimes just unbelievable. Fun is good, if it balances out the serious material; the balance seems more 'Life' channel with every passing week. Not bad if that is the audience you are trying to attract.

First, I am not a fan of Mr. Tennis. The whole column seems to not fit with Salon (as I remember it). [It does fit the less serious, more 'Cosmo Girl with some liberal politics' it has become.]

Second, the title of the letter drew me in. Both the letter and the answer were very compelling, in particular the answer had insight and its bromide was honest and simple.

As a man, I do not condemn this woman. Life is short and some folks get a bit more applause in life than others based on things not fully in their control. I do wish her well, she has only just begun that journey of increasing indignity with each passing year.

Yes, this article is useless. Spending more of my reading time at other places. Ms. Walsh needs to need seriously look at the shallow content that has overtaken Salon.

As an original Premium Subscriber (but no longer), it saddens me what this site as devolved to.

Yes, Beach Volley Ball is mostly about the bikinis - Something wrong with that? Agree with the other poster, is King only watching the prime time NBC schedule? Sit back, pop-a-top, bite into a Big Mac, and enjoy the sand. Kobe will be available every other day in about 3 months. Synchronized diving - yeah kind of gay - but according to the NBC announcer they are having fun in the showers.

Camille is still fighting the ol' battles with Gloria S. Now she uses Sarah as the ulimate anti-Gloria. So sad, that Camille who still idolizes Madonna has put Sarah in the same league. Any one who saw the Katy C. interviews, saw that Sarah was the least read, least informed politician ever to run for high office. To blame it on editing after seeing the leading and patronizing Qs of Hannity, shows Camille no longer deserves the esteem we gave her deservably in years past. Sad to see such an intellect devolve into inrelevance. Sad.
