Hopefully this weekend fires up some of the players. Obviously, not having Miner and Kipp hurts big time (+ Lougeay), but it was still too much of a mess to excuse.

The announcers are so giddy about beating a hobbling, depleted "#15th ranked" Stanford. Make it stop.

I just realized that sometimes silence is golden after listening to the yapping machines for this match. Couldn't turn off the screen fast enough after the match was over.

Sadly, an apropos way to end the match. ASU apparently the NCAA championship favorites now... How long are they going to carry on about it? Ugh. And to think we had three pretty good setters to start the season And then had to play using the 4th option. I'm sure Hambly was just happy to even have a setter at that point. I'm sure Tufuga will feel bad, but the blame can't be solely on her. Where was the Stanford block today? How come Campbell had 0 kills?! The OH hitters had double the amount of digs as Beaven, and Francis on the right is not a viable option. |

Some serious Stanford flashbacks to last season. Ooof. Hopefully yes, some players can get healthy and Stanford can learn from this, forget about it, and move forward. If I feel like this, I can't imagine how the players and staff feel. Rough rough rough week.

Like I don't know if there's anyone to blame really for all these injuries but this is getting ridiculous. Also, would be nice to have Fidelak but I suppose they are trying to respect her wishes. Plus, I have no idea about Greene. |

Xu is on the clutch... Get well soon.
Man, Greene is kicking herself for not having the chance to run the offense.

I mean it was a win I suppose but the commentators are acting like they just won a National championship School spirit is a thing.  That's only funny if you remember this episode of Will & Grace |

If I feel like this, I can't imagine how the players and staff feel. Rough rough rough week. Hardly a flashback. This IS last season. I was looking forward to going to the UW match, but now the Dawg and Duck fans are thrilled to waste Stanford. They can look past Stanford and prep for the more dangerous…Cal! |

I mean it was a win I suppose but the commentators are acting like they just won a National championship I mean, they're Arizona State, and they just beat Stanford, and this win could also help ASU get into the tournament. I'm not sure what you're expecting. If you don't want teams celebrating when they beat you, maybe don't be as good as Stanford has been for the last several decades. |

Plus, I have no idea about Greene. Last I heard Greene was still on campus. She was a walk-on, so my best guess is she just quit to focus on academics. I'm not going to blame her if she decided that it wasn't worth sticking it out for basically no playing time. |
