How can anyone be this good at something? Every one of them is basically Anakin podracing. Shit's fucked.

I went to a (non-Olympic) competitive match once and it was crazy. Players were like 15' back from the table, just slamming the things and grunting like it was full-on tennis.
:lol:

i only watched the mixed doubles match between china and japan, but it was entertaining as hell.

i love how fired up they get after a point, though i'd be fired up if i hit a ping pong ball as well as they did/do.

I really like indoor volleyball. After every Olympics I say I'm gonna try and watch more of it and I never do.

We go to quite a few college volleyball matches. They're free and you can sit in the lower bowl.

I’m on a family road trip and was driving this morning. I was getting updates from my teacher friends while driving. Then she won. I was driving with tears in my eyes while my family slept. They woke up shortly thereafter because I got pulled over doing 73 in a 55.

My friend and colleague who has been Suni’s mentor for as long as I can remember was coaching later this morning when Suni tried to FaceTime her. She missed the call. The whole world wants a piece of Suni, and she had a call not taken. That made me laugh.

Suni’s Insta account went from around 200k to 900k so far today. That scares me. She’s a shy kid. I have no idea how any kid navigates sudden fame. The coolest thing is she’ll be able to have a college experience at Auburn while potentially making millions in endorsements. I’m so happy for her.

No, but he let me off with a warning anyway. I think my groggy family Softened him.
