No, I wouldn't, because my intention wasn't to conjure anything sexually explicit. As I said in the PM, in my scenario you don't get to play both roles. You wouldn't know what the writwr's intent was. |

That's really unfair. Your post about an all (alleged) lesbian team was taken out of context because most of us probably didn't know you're part of the LGBT community. Smh So for someone to celebrate LGBTQ athletes, one has to disclose his or her own sexual identity? I should never have had to disclose how I sexually identify to talk about a community (that I happen to belong to). Similarly, straight people who advocate for LGBTQ individuals are called "allies," and part of being an ally means they aren't expected to reveal their sexual identities either. Regardless, I didn't even have a sexual agenda; Chisovnik did by talking about "pleasuring yourself." Go ahead and block me too. We really don't deserve to see each other's posts. It's 56 degrees and sunny here, so the rest of you have a good day!  No, you shouldn't have to disclose your sexual orientation, but that would have at least provided better context to your all-lesbian team post. Instead you came off like a homophobe. You're very quick to tell people to block you. I would invite you to block me as well, but clearly you already ignore everyone else's opinion and seem incapable of processing someone else's side of an argument. |

As long as posters like Dorothy, C4ndle, USAVolley, Geddy, nyline, and some notable others don't leave Volleytalk, I'll be happy to block the insulting, parasitic nobodies and right-wing paternalists. I've only asked three people to block me over the course of being on here: Chisovnik, BIK, and you, because I have yet to read anything newsworthy from either of you; instead, you guys are the types to just jump into threads to only insult posters but not provide any meaningful content or analysis to the conversation at hand. I'll be the first to admit I've been wrong before on issues concerning my team, such as this morning when someone made a contending point that changed my mind on a particular matter. I love hearing people's opinions and challenging my own, but I'm not about to waste time filtering out consistently absurd and abusive posts by particular VTalkers. |

S: Lloyd OH: Kim, Tom MB: Harmotto, Akinradewo OPP: Montano L: Castillo There are better, more experienced setters, Akinradewo is in some type of (hopefully not permanent) slump and Tom is past her prime. Watch her season with RC Cannes for proof. Kim, Montaño, Harmotto and Castillo are great choices though. |

Watch her season with RC Cannes for proof. Kim, Montaño, Harmotto and Castillo are great choices though. What Lloyd lacks in experience she makes up with her play at the net. Tom is still one of the best, if not the best, OH passer in the world. I'm picking her for her back row mainly. She's still very crafty with her shots though. Akinradewo, I think it may have to do more with the setter than her being in a slump? I hope so... lol Middles would terminate almost every ball they would get set. You have Castillo, Tom, and Kim in the back row, nuff said. And in any case scenario, feed either Kim or Montano, ball's going down. I'm pretty confident in my choices. If I had to replace someone it would probably be Arighetti for Foluke, but I'll stick with my choices.  |

I'm not the type of poster that just jumps into threads to insult people. I'm not a troll/hater, I'm a fan of volleyball. I was just calling you out because I thought you were out of line. By the way, I'm also gay and I was originally taken aback by your post when I thought you were a homophobe. I'm really not into this type of high drama post. You want me to block you? Congrats. You'll get your wish. |

I would suggest making a separate thread on the board somewhere to have discussions about sexuality and sports or anything Related to that. People are supposed to be making their fantasy ultimate vball team here.

In the future, s carlini, opp Murphy and Lowe or Murphy and Nicole, or Murphy and hooker perhaps if she ever gets back. OH Hill and Larson work fine, libero: Banwerth. If Sykora had never had the accident and could still play like she used to I would want her though or in a dream world Misty May-Treanor return indoor as libero or Logan Tom. neither of which will happen. Middles akinraedowo and Alhassan.
