They are something. I wish I was as good as them at anything.

Tian and Wang were the last team to have beaten them, 108 sets ago! They gave it their best and that made for some great volleyball. You were watching the volleyball, right? :lol:

Frankly, I think womens' volleyball and basketball is much more interesting to WATCH than the mens' games. More finesse and skill.
Sincerely,

I've asked several times to be the water boy.
They never did get back to me. :x
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error.

I have a very good friend that is a v'ball referee he always enjoys doing the girl's matches.

I watched the USA girls a couple days ago beat Brazil and watched last night as they beat China for the gold. 4 great sets in all. Way to go USA!

Water boy? No imagination.
The risk of cancer from sun exposure is very high in the sport of volleyball. We'd be doing the girls a huge favor if we volunteered, on a rotating schedule of course, to apply and regularly re-apply sunblock to all exposed skin.
Let's start a volunteer list that I can forward to the Olympic committee. I'm certain they'll see the enormous value in our service to the team. :mrgreen:

I especially admire how they congratulate one another :lol: . I think they got it from watching football.
