AKA2D '91... I agree with you. I think that they definitely deserve to be on every box of Wheaties,Gatorade,Powerade,Vitamins,Boost,Tennis shoes,etc. Venus absolutely deserves that.
If she did not receive an offer, I would think that there were some racial motivations behind that. I was just being facitious about the Wheaties. You know, it really does not surprise me anymore when Black people are wronged by the powers that be. We have to acknowledge our own achievements (therefore the need for Image, Essence, the Source,& SoulTrain Awards). I am sure that Venus knows that the black community is glowing with pride due to her recent accomplishment, who needs Wheaties? This sister should realize that she is all that without Wheaties. Just a thought, we couldn't even boycott Wheaties or anything because none of us eat them anyway.
