I think Hooker is an excellent player and she belongs on the USA team. What is this poster trying to convince me of ? The poster's implicit point was that Hooker doesn't deserve to be on Team USA because she's a diva for reasons pertaining to visas and switching clubs. "Ok, fair enough" reads to me as a concession. I.e. "you're right." I pointed out that the Tango's post was biased and false. It shouldn't have received an "ok, fair enough." In no way was my post a concession. Fair enough does not mean "you're right." How do you know Tango's post is false? Where the hell are you going with all this crap anyway.

I.e. "you're right." I pointed out that the Tango's post was biased and false. It shouldn't have received an "ok, fair enough." I`m not making this up....she showed up late past 2 seasons. First season she said she her passport expired and this season she said she had visa issues. AGAIN...I`m not making this up....These are facts. Google it and u will find it. I even forgot to mention. When she signed to play in Italy a few years back ...she got injured, but then she simply left the country and came back home...only problem....She did not inform the club....she simply left without letting anyone know. www.volleywood.net/tag/destinee-hooker-injury/Or you know, it's the club and not the player that deals with immigration issues. Visa issues aren’t unique to Hooker; it’s just with lower level players they dissolve the contract instead of waiting it out. Edit: Also, with regard to Pesaro, you are lying. Hooker didn't leave without telling them. She told them she was leaving. She disagreed with the doctor's prognosis and thought the team's doctor's was pressuring her to play for Pesaro (in CL) and was prioritizing the club's short term goals over her long-term interests.. It was Kreklow who left in the middle of the night without telling anyone - but I guess there's one BIG difference between Hooker and Kreklow. Hooker left under a medical disagreement over what was best for her long term versus the club's short-term interests, went home to USA, and CRUSHED IT for Team USA that Summer. You can't say that has any bearing on her ability to contribute to Team USA.

Inventing stuff out of thin air is his style. He cannot tolerate anyone criticizing Hooker in way, real or imagined.

Fair enough does not mean "you're right." Dude, your post literally said: Ok, fair enough. Had no idea she was still acting like a diva. If that doesn't read as a concession... well I mean it just does. I'm happy to let you clarify, but this really isn't the crux of the issue, especially since you apparently agree with me. I literally quoted you, citing 4 different sources, here, showing why Tango's claims are false. That's where I'm going with "all this crap." Zero clues why you're getting so heated, especially if you aren't even going to read my posts.

Did you even read your (Volleywood eek) source? It literally said that the rumor she left Pesaro without saying goodbye was false. Also, if I was being forced to play through a serious knee injury, hell I'd leave without saying goodbye too.

First match of the finals series is today. Let’s see how Lloyd does. Hoping for a Praia victory but Minas has really shown some true grit this season. We’ll see how it all goes down.
