Seems like the best place for a stick that's been up an a** is to remain up the a**. What the hell am I going to do with it now?

If it's any consolation serving seems to be a problem for most teams. Korea is basically serving free balls right now to Russia.

All of you people need to get over Nicole Fawcett. I can't understand for the life of me why you think she's better than either Murphy or Lowe. Murphy lead the team in points for two seasons in a row while they were on the same roster. Lowe very clearly beat her out last season. What has Fawcett done in the last 3 years that makes you think she's better than either of them? Take off the PSU-colored glasses and have several seats.

18 faults through 4 mostly tight sets. Zero service faults in a crushing fifth set.
Seems pretty obvious

Korea takes 2nd set, just brutal volleyball to watch. Olympic sports, once every 4 years, everyone is nervous.

Those of you who are used to me know that I am not pollyannaish about things. So,
1) This is the Olympics, the distance between teams narrow considerably. 2) Nederlands knocked off China in 5. No mean feat. 3) The jump floats didn't float, they sailed. Stuff happens. Improvise, adapt, overcome. 4) If this was the USA team from yesteryears, there would not have been a comeback. The emotional ups and downs from the players would have killed them mentally. 5) We're 2-0. Not a pretty 2-0, but just the same. Undefeated. Better than 0-1. Ask the men's team.

Not liking this 2 challenges per set thing. Coaches using it as free timeouts, and now my network is starting to play commercials during the timeouts.

Lowe will NEVER replace Nicole Fawcett. Sadly Lowe has been really bad!! i admit that she does not belong on the court. I think Lowe is still trying to feel comfortable in the Olympics. And there were miscues with Glass. Don't count out the tall lefty just yet.
