GREAT MOMENTS IN VOLLEYBALL HISTORY, Part 256 — by Steve Nadis
Since this is officially a volleyball blog, some observers have commented that there is precious little volleyball discussed in these pages. The following post attempt to remedy that situation, though readers may find the above title “self-serving” (pun intended).
So here’s the story: I was playing VB doubles last night with one of my oldest partners. We used to win most of the games we played together but have been in a rut of late. The game in question was going badly. We were pretty far behind, and I did not really think we could pull it out. At least we managed to get a “side out.” Still, I had the distinct sense we were going down. I tossed my partner the ball and said: “Your serve General Custer.”

Snake,
When you described this person as one of your oldest partners, were you referring to the AARP membership card that recently arrived at his house?

I misspoke, TB. I didn’t mean he was one of my oldest partners. I meant that we’ve been playing together for a long time–and generally playing well together for a long time, except lately. Nothing to do with AARP membership offers or colonoscopies and the like… –S
