    Not to mention, it was pouring buckets of rain pretty much the entire match.

    Congrats!!!

    Dominant, unstoppable, the best ever... My wife was taught by Misty May at Long Beach before she was famous, and she thought May was great!

    Glad to see them do so well!

    Walsh is odd to me though... But I love May.

    I saw them play the Brazilians the other day. Outrages match. I couldn't believe the saves both teams were making.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    The USA men beach volleyball are in semi-trouble right now. Won the first set, lost the second, about to start the third.

    Well, I take that back! They got the gold! They won the last set 15-4. I guess there's a mercy rule because they didn't go to 21?

    Gold in men's and women's....awesome!

    I missed the men's match. Without the wet-bathing-suit female-****-slapping the sport loses something.

    I completely understand excitement when it comes to winning and how that can come across............

    but these two sound so jacked up that you'd think they were completely wasted most of the time their eyes are open.........that's just me........

    I already said I was watching more of the mens gymnastics and swimming........lol........

    No if there is a 3rd set it only goes to 15 (must win by 2). Same thing in indoor volleyball where it is the first team to win three. If they are tied 2 games each, the 5th set only goes to 15.

    Yea, I was watching comedy central and kept flipping back to see what the score was. Didnt really watch it like I did the womens...
