A legend. When he was on, he was on.(How many more times do you plan to make me emotional during these Olympics?! I can't take all the retirement/player crying/passing of the torch posts!)

Each federation may only acquire one international transfer IIRC. So, Brazil and Poland cannot add any other non domestic players. It's time for the USA to acquire someone if you ask me. πππ

Perhaps he meant Simon? I thought Simon was vocal about staying with the young Cuban team. Hell, they almost qualified for these games.

It's time for the USA to acquire someone if you ask me. πππ My understanding is that a federation can have more than one international transfer, but only one can play per event. It is harder now since the Cuba federation lifted the restrictions on playing overseas, but we are working on Lopez.

Yes, I believe that's who they were referring to. Last I watched him in person, he was playing for Cuba. Guess the Polish got to him first before Brazil.

Hell, they almost qualified for these games.Β Watching my Canadians come back from 0-2 sets down to defeat the Cubans LIVE in person at the Pacific Coliseum here in Vancouver will always be one of my favourite sports memories. Simon was still unbelievable in his older age, and absolute pure class sticking around for pictures with the Canadian fans. Huge regret not getting a pic taken with him myself. Anyway, Iβm not sure the young guns would move the needle much for Brazil to start over Lucarelli and Leal. All the pin hitters broke down in some way for them in either passing, hitting, or both. Granted, I havenβt seen any of them play since January 2020 though.
