Seriously.
National championship volleyball match against some preseason whatever basketball game?
What lousy scheduling.
This is exactly why I refuse to subscribe to cable/satellite, whatever.
At least let someone else competent stream the match if you don't give a rat's ass about it.

Ahh...truthfully, that bball game was waay more exciting than this volleyball match will be, especially with Mowins/Kiraly on the broadcast.
ZzzzzZZzzzzzZZzzz...
Hey Idahodork, if you don't subscribe to cable or satellite, how'd you know the volleyball broadcast was delayed. You over at BiK's house in your underwear, snuggling with him on his sofa?

There should have been at least the whole match played from the beginning and not at 14-13 in the first. B--lsh-t.

This is a volleyball site; for people who love volleyball. I suggest you go to a basketball site; if there one.
I don't watch basketball; how long can 30 seconds last...............forever in basketball - boring.
Volleyball rules!

What is frustrating is the terrible camera angles!! All matches of the final four have really been really poor. At least they know when to zoom out on Karch....

I suggest everyone write to ESPN like I just did. Not that it will make a damn bit of difference, but at least it's an opportunity to vent.

Is there another sport where it talks 30 minutes to play the last 5 minutes of a game. Reduce the number of timeouts in BB. No other sport has as many TOs as they do. FB 2 per half. VB 2 per game. Soccer none.

They call their timeouts in soccer by taking dives. The Italians get more timeouts than anyone.

Soccer none. Football is three per half. College basketball is 5 per game, can carry 4 through to the second half (one use-it-or-lose-it in the first half). So instead of 6 timeouts over 30 minutes of clock, you get 8 timeouts over 20 minutes of clock. It can drag things out. But I agree that they should have shifted to the volleyball at the start of the match and sent the basketball game to ESPNU or ESPNEWS for the end. |

Disgraceful. 27 points completely missed.
