It's also so easy from your desk isn't it? You crack me up. USA takes the first set 25-17. What's your standard for playing great against Serbia? 25-7?

I said if it wasn't for several unforced Serbian errors, the set (and therefor the score) would be different. If you watched the set, you would notice the US got bailed out in some rallies due to unforced hitting errors (e.g. first 2/3 hits by serbia (all on good sets) were out)

I'm lead to believe you've never played much. If it weren't for unforced errors every match ever played would be different.

I'm lead to believe you've never played much. If it weren't for unforced errors every match ever played would be different. Sigh. Logic time. First, you do realize that the score doesn't tell the whole story of the set. as per my example. Serbia making unforced hitting errors against solo blocks does not equal USA playing amazing. Again...did I say that the US is playing bad? No. But the number of poor sets + blocking error + etc. does not equal playing amazing. Playing amazing means to the top of your ability, or better than everyone else. I think we need to play a much cleaner controlled game if we want to medal...what we're doing now won't get it done. And if you think we're playing 'amazing' right now, then you have a much lower opinion of our potential than I do.

But the TV camera was at a bad angle. Of course it looks out from there. Unless there's a view down the line that shows it was out, I'll trust the line judge.

LOL.....that's all I got to say.... Good argument...and just as good as your previous ones. USA up 21-19 in the 2nd set Block party makes it 5pts in a row. 22-19 2nd TO SRB 6pts before SRB gets a kill to end Stanley's run. great dig by Rosic and transition kill to make it 24-22. USA wins 25-22...last 2 pts coming on SRB service errors.

Team looking okay. Great to see them come back in set 2. Serbia is a lot like team USA. Inconsistent.

Reach, you obviously have never played, and must not know much about volleyball...come on, they're playing amazing. We're blocking really well (except the bic). If we can clean up our transition game and SR hiccups we could go far. Priddy is also ripping from the service line.
