Articles like this, along with players like this, are why I'm hooked on beach volleyball. I even watched their sappy pre-game interview on NBC the other day. Too bad the cute one is getting married this fall.

Now you want to see some real tv, check out what the Russian chick said on her reasons for going to the games. Obvious: To win a gold medal. But how much did it mean to her? I recall a statement similar to I think winning the gold medal means more to me than bearing children. Now I have no clue the exact ramifications of that statement, but I think its pretty strong.
