Dance Little Sister

Those of you who tuned into the women's singles gold medal tennis match at the Olympics yesterday to see Russian player Maria Sharapova - likely to check out more than just her serve - got to see American player Serena Williams, Venus's kid sister, defeat Sharapova and do the kind of victory dance associated with end zone celebrations in the NFL after touchdowns.  There's just one difference between the Olympics and the NFL; the NFL doesn't allow that crap any more.
When the American flag came off the bar as it was being raised during the medal ceremony, Serena Williams opined that maybe the flag wanted to come off so it could hug her.
I have my own theory.  I think some cheeky Brit or some other Olympic official sabotaged the flag before it went up, in response to Serena's "ugly American" dance. 
That's one "sister act" that deserves bad reviews.
