As I don't want to write it down, here is a screenshot I made. This is the type of messages she is receiving now..

That's horrible. Its tough to be a public figure nowadays. I'm sure they get an insane amount of adulations daily but they also get this type of ridiculously vile messages directed at them...a lot.

I would never understand why some can be so callous and leave needlessly cruel comments about others on social media and other platforms. Things that they know full well that are unacceptable and would never fly in the real world.

One reason why I try to refrain from using (or "sensitive" to) harsh words like "useless" when talking about players and their skill sets here. They get bombarded with those types of messages whether they look for it or not.

We're forgetting some of these players were fans first before being pro. Chances are they've come across this place before and still probably visit. Seeing your name get dragged after a bad performance is not something you get used to...even if you try to avoid it people like those on Plaks timeline will remind you of it DIRECTLY AND constantly.

Anyone have a link for Japan/Thailand match...also the US/China...The Blues won the cup yesterday and I need a good pick me up.😐

Here's the USA/Poland match for those who missed it and wants to watch it.

Oh my goodness! He's fantastic. He's just all around terrific. You should hear him...my goodness!

Quote from Maxwell

Being slow to start in the NCAA is one thing not in the professional or NT matches.

But I'm not equating the level of NCAA to Pro or international games. Im only talking about a particular player and her tendencies. I'm saying Simone is not someone who usually starts on time but that doesn't make her ineffective or useless like what other posters here seem to suggest.

Simone Lee is a notorious slow starter even in the NCAA. Once she gets going tho she can be lights out. Drews has been the most reliable player for us...nice to see. I'm really liking this batch of middles we have right now. It be a crime if any of them don't make it to Tokyo.

So what kind of VPN are you using sitenoise? I have VyprVpn which is normally reliable and serves me well in the pass but for whatever reasons it can't fool fivb..can't go pass welcome without being redirected to the bs "not available in your country" landing. Anyway have you tried using jdownloader 2 for your "procuring needs"?

Thompson...wow, what a revelation. Looks to be reliable offensively and defensively responsible. I like her a lot. Excited for her.

Hello Jordan Thompson. Welcome to Karch's circle of trust....and Kingdon, you're in danger girl! Dont read any emails starting or answer your phone starting tonight if you want those sweet NT money to keep flowing.

I'm digging goggles from Japan. That little cobra snake thing she does before she serves is a trip.

Yeah I think they're using "Hawk-eye" tech now like in Wimbledon.

The number of terrific / fantastic / Oh! / (and who can ever forget the very exciting exclamation....My Goodness!) per minute by the lone guy in the commentator booth for the USA/BEL match was fucking dizzying.

Please continue the drama somewhere else.

This is exactly the kind of stuff that starts drama. No. It's a total deflection and forces the other party to respond in a less than tactful way.

It doesn't matter if other posters used that word countless times to described another player. I still believe any decent person should refrain from using that word. You can say they're a defensive liability or not terminal enough but calling someone useless in their chosen profession is just plain lazy and frankly degrading. This is not an attack on you, FYI. I just think we should all be better and carefully choosing the words we use is a good place to start.

Now we could move on. Peace.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I think we could all agree that "useless" is a word that we should never use to describe any living, breathing thing. It's just that TOXIC. Civility goes out the window as soon you label someone as such...just my opinion.

Ebrar has the physical attributes to be great but she's also gangly, uncoordinated and lacks natural athleticism. I see the promise but it would take double the drive and quite possibly a bit of humility for her to get to the next level.

Larson maybe deals with a minor injury

Yeah she looked like she pulled something in the second period after a kill. It was the first set she got after the setter changed. She was wincing.

...and my stream died at 24 even. 😐

Missed the first set but it's looking like a pretty one sided game so far in the second. I'm almost bored tbh.

Quote from penguin

Oh come on. It's part of their culture to not be smiley and expressive , they are raised like that. That probably makes harder things like meeting new people, opening up to strangers etc. People perceive normal behaviour differently, you can like that behaviour or not, but calling them non-human is just rude and stupid.

I was being facetious but dear God...Did you really think I just called them "non-human" ??? I even used a silly emoji and shit...LOL Anyway from an outsiders point of view they seem to operate in a no-non-sense type mode every time they're on the court. They never really get too high or too low no matter how the game is going and most of the time stripped of any emotions seemingly like a ROBOT, almost. I feel like I was just victimized by our cancelled culture. LOL Anyway it's not that serious. ☺

They're more robotic than cold...cold is at least a personality trait. 😋 Kosh is the exception.
