yuan's headache inducing scream is... kinda annoying.
more annoying than jacque's screams.
egonu, please scream as well.

ze roberto:
time to look for pool b's weaknesses.
even if china wins this, they are already out right?
i agree with the others though.. this pool b is not the group of death... it's a group of hot mess.
it would be sort of magical if argentina will pull an upset against turkey.
USA is simply a hot mess right now...
I'm crying for happy tears for russia (i know it's still too early). but blocks, defense, reception, and attack are all on point.
Goncharova playing as if it's the match of her life.
come on usa, make it to 5th set please!
we're seeing what could've happened if russia advanced to the finals in 2012 instead of brazil...
mental freeze from USA. come on, wake up!
i don't believe that USA is purposely losing to eliminate china. but they have to get their acts together if they don't want to face either brazil or serbia in the QF. that's catastrophic in the making.
goncha is eating USA alive.
USA is crumblingggg. sup USA? poulter's sets are too predictable.
Russian curtain is on!
Russians reminder that they were / are still a volleyball powerhouse.
Oh God, please not another injury.....
this is why i appreciate guidetti, lang ping, and guimares over karch. no hating, but i feel that at times he doesn't know how to use his bench.
come on russia! give me a 5 setter! i'm sacrificing my sleep for this..
Some of yall are showing your age, 1988 OG?
my parents are still dating during this time. i'm not yet a fetus.
For me, Athens 2004 were the best Olympics in quality of vball of the last 20 years. Many teams in top form, different styles or "vball schools", two QFs decided in tie-break, two EPIC semifinals and one AMAZING final. Love it. If I am not wrong, FIVB chosed that final as the best from all the Olympics or maybe it was tied with the 1988 one.
And there was Cuba too
one of my all time favorite! and so many legends in one tournament!!! 3 of the best setters of ALL time in the same tournament (fofao, venturini, feng kun)
china - zhou suhong, FENG KUN!!
russia - sokolova, gamova
brazil - MARI!!! virna, FOFAO! venturini
USA - the lovely logan tom fresh from beach volleyball LOL, sykora (but yeah, americans hate the athens )
aside from cuba, italy was a major threat as well!
DOM 3 : 0 KEN
USA 3 : 0 RUS
ARG 0 : 3 TUR
SRB 1 : 3 BRA
JPN 2 : 3 KOR
CHN 0 : 3 ITA
i sincerely hope to have 5 setters for majority of the games. all these 3:0 are boring for such a big event. (e.g. like the 2004 games where almost all matches are 3-2)
it’s just kinda crazy how the team that got beaten by the usa b team managed to grab the gold.
anywau out profile pic shows how great taste we both have 😂
cheers to that!! #mariforever
though my forever love is still #shari (you all poor souls who don't know what this means)
