I wanna give a HUGE shoutout to Parra and Caffey. If Parra doesn come in and take some huge swings and go on MANY service runs we are done in 3. Caffey her offense is just one of a kind. JE PLEASE HAVE THESE 2 IN THE STARTING LINEUP I'll take Caffey's offense over Bella's block at this point. As long as Caffey can put up an efficient block, we can let our back row pick up the slack. I'd also like to see Parra get more comfortable in the starting line-up. Her blocking against the slide needs A LOT of work (and blocking in general), but she's a great server, helps out in serve-receive, and can be a terminal hitter. Also Bergmark has barely been getting blocks …. |

Meh. Compare how perfect Obama had to be to what was elected next. It's a thing. Wait. Are we saying Trump doesn't get any criticism for how he behaves? Is that the tack we're taking here? It's like some of you are inviting a conversation where African Americans and women are put forward acting like jerks to compare them to white men acting like jerks. What planet are you people on? You want to have your prejudices, have your prejudices. You're going to have them anyway. But being confrontational about race on a forum about volleyball is not smart, IMO. There is little chance of this turning into a productive conversation. I'm going to keep at challenging the original premise and saying I don't agree with it, and keeping it there, because doing anything beyond that is going to be counter productive. I recommend we all agree to disagree and keep the white male privilege conversation to a minimum. But, I don't know. Maybe y'all want to dig deeper into this. Curious as to how a tens of words, four-paragraph post is your version of backing away. Almost like that sets up anyone who responds to look like the aggressor. Oy. Vey. |

Also Bergmark has barely been getting blocks …. I came here to say this. If we’re going for block touch as a win, sure. But if we’re going to be the second to last blocking team in the Big 12, let’s prioritize offense and let the back row do the work. |

Can we not turn a volleyball match into a referendum about race/sex issues in America? Sounds like you are a race and sex where your entire life has not been made to be about your race or sex. But, yeah we actually agree just wanted to quickly point out how insanely privileged that comment is lol keeping off my soapbox now. Meh not to derail the match thread even further (even though that is exactly what I’m going to do) but as someone with a sex and sexuality and brain (if not race) has been made to be an issue, I get sick of people constantly bringing it into convos where it isn’t warranted |

I'm questioning the wisdom of continuing the conversation, with more detail. |
