There are only 2 poll options because there are only two realistic potential outcomes.

Serbia sweeps or Dominicana rallies in 5.

Ya'll ready for some #PuntoVivaViva Voleibol?

FIVB rankings are always fun. Like, when they had #25 Poland missing the IOQT just ranked behind Cuba (#24) in the rankings before the Olympic Qualification Tournament. Luckily, Cuba withdrew and Poland at least had a chance to just barely make that tournament, despite an unfairly tough road.

The system is better, and maybe it's fair that Serbia's IDGAF about World Cup or VNL attitudes are reflected, but whatever!

This is more something like #3 vs. #8 probably, but, #3 is actually ranked 13th and #8 is ranked 6th. #ThisIsVolleyball

TFW you made the Athens roster but 17 years later still can't pass.

TFW you only win one match at the Olympics and it's against the USA.

I’m rooting for grandma

Stream is live! Warmups on now. It's the announcer I like too, yay!

"Their Caribbean rivals are in the form of their lives"

Grandma is just now reaching her peak form, I guess.
