Wait I thought they already won FIVB World Grand Prix last night??? That's what every player has been posting "champions" why are they playing China?? I'm confused lol! They won because no one can catch up to them in terms of win-loss record. US is 4-0 and the next four teams are 2-2. So even if USA loses to China, we'll still be 4-1, and China will be 3-2. Thanks!

There seems to be a solid contingency of Chinese fans in the crowd. Stats put the Chinese population in Omaha at 0.3% of the population....my guess is they are almost all there right now.

"China continuing to make the bone-headed decision to serve Larson-Burbach..."
No, Sunderland, don't hold back! Tell us how you really feel!

I wonder if China knows Hodge probably won't be starting WCup and are serving Larson just to probe her weaknesses for a few weeks from now.

China acts like serving isn't part of the game.

china's passing kept them in it in set 1, but it's broken down here in set 2, affecting every other aspect of their game.

I don't think I can wait until the World Cup to watch volleyball again!!! Good thing to look forward to is the World Cup will be a lot more exciting! I'm hoping to see China's best team and also Russia's best team. Im convinced that Serbia will be much better as well. Sunderland also believes that of all the teams in the world, the Serbian team has the most athletic potential, but just hasn't reached that potential yet.

It's unfortunate that the announcing is a bit redundant and annoying on one of the few occasions we have volleyball on a national telecast. Sunderland with his old man rants and Barnett doing his Net Live schtik Isn't going to win over any new fans imo.

I could see China's #13 being a dangerous serving sub on their A-team
