If I have my way I will be reporting from the Beach Volley Ball venue at the next Olympiad. I will make that appeal to my boss right away. I think I'm kidding. But really, have you seen this almost naked display of long-legged athletic women jumping and diving in the sand? Am I dreaming?Honestly though, these women are phenomenal athletes if you can get past all the skin and enjoy the games. The appeal and allure of beach volley ball comes from the uniforms or lack there of. Truth be told, most guys will tell you that those super-fit women in this barely-there uniforms, is great TV and don't think the NBC doesn't realize it.
I could go on and on but I won't. I just hope my boss realizes how deeply I care about the sport of beach volley ball and sees fit to assign me to the next event.

No, this is not a sport. Beach volleyball is a kindergarden game disguised with sex and promoted as sport by ego driven Californians. It's astounding how readily the public buys into these California ego trips. A short list of other California self promotions; CA wine, CA grapes, CA raisons, CA plums, CA prunes, CA Pizza Kitchen, CA Closets, CA sea lions, CA whales and perhaps the most blatant of all, "Great cheese comes from happy cows. Happy cows come from California. California cheese". You could easily add 50 or more "Californiaisms" of your own to this list.
As for those secret behind the back hand signals, they are just meant to add to the California mystic. A valid interpretation might be, "If the ball comes to me, I'll hit it". With the fingers pointed the other way, "If the ball comes to you, you hit it". Think about it. It's no more profound than that.
If you want to ogle half naked women, go to the nearest beach but don't call it sport. And don't corrupt the Olymics with kindergarden games just to satisfy the overblown egos of Californians.
