Cuba beating Brazil for the bronze was good . . . and then I stayed tuned for the gold medal game. Wow. Wower than wow. I don't remember seeing two teams so evenly matched in a long long time. Either team could have won the first two sets, but the Russians did, led by their crazy screaming coach, their 6'8" 23 year old hottie outside hitter Ekaterina Gamova, their blonde do-everything superstar Lioubov Shashkova, their 80%+ hitter Irina Tebenekhina. And yet the Chinese came back with impossible dig after impossible dig, and won in 5. Fan-fuckin-tastic.
In researching this post, I just learned that the Russian coach has quit after the loss. Damn, he's a nutter.
I just wonder what Ekaterina would be like in the sack (this is not a good pic of her) . . . .
