Roberts and Travis to follow in the 2nd mens semi Wish I had seen this earlier; I get that it is a 1 star, but you MIGHT think someone sponsoring the live feed also MIGHT want more viewers (there's this thing about viewership and revenue). Anway, 6 hours later and I know the results, so onto other Youtubes....:-( Oh my sport....

Not to play devil's advocate, but if you follow the FIVB Beach account on YT, then you'll get the alerts like I did.
This also caused me to sit at my desk at work frustrated that Travis and Roberts couldn't win that semi despite being up 20-18 in the second and 12-9 in the third, but at least they brought back bronze.

This also caused me to sit at my desk at work frustrated that Travis and Roberts couldn't win that semi despite being up 20-18 in the second and 12-9 in the third, but at least they brought back bronze. I'm subscribed to FIVB Beach VOlleyball World (whatever that is; has logo, though it covered all). It's all that shows on a YouTube search for FIVB Beach Volleyball. I'll look into seeing if there is some other account (feel free to put here is this is not the valid one). SO, here it is in a nutshell: Do "I" beat a better path to their mousetrap (somehow I missed the alerts) OR does the service provider beat a path to ME? Facebook practically is selling me product after I do some cursory search (yes, I know their pockets are deeper), but with my "immersion" in beach volleyball, from this forum, Instagram, searches, in and out of BVDB, hits on AVP site, 1.5k friends, most of which play vb, one "might expect" the FIVB to somehow make sure I don't miss these few events...I DO even blame the players (like I posted about having their names on their shorts), for not marketing themselves during live events. I'm sure Travis has enough on his plate, but nothing is more important than his FIVB activity. Rant over, back to decorating for the 49er game, which, is not going on as speedily as I had "designed out"...hahaha....

I got an email about it (I turn off other notifications since I don't want to be notified of every little thing). I just so happened to see it on my email. I had my bowling league during the finals so I didn't watch it.
But I'm not going to carry water for the FIVB since they're a mess.
Also Packers by 4

And the best team won. At least the food was good at the party I went to for the game.

Looked like a comeback toward the end, but never materialized. So I'm not "off topic", Long Live the FIVB Cook Island! LOL
