A nod of the baseball cap to the Latvian Olympic Mens Volleyball team who beat the Amercian team 2-0 in an upset in the first round of the Olympic Beach Volleyball games. Not sure of their final placement, but the Americans sure had their hands full. Maybe too much Red Bull…
Oh, the title is a silly pop song from 1974 by a group called First Class. One of those summer hits that got played every 10 minutes on the AM stations across Chicagoland in those days. Ugh.
Aha! So THIS was the reason I should have watched the Olympics!
LoL I was waiting for this part. 🙂
What I thought was funny was that after that match where the US lost to Latvia, everytime the words “beach volleyball” and “Americans” were mentioned together, the commentators also always mentioned Latvia and its upset win. Any press is good press!
We watched the match. When Latvia won that final point, I’m sure the whole block could hear us cheering! My daughter was tearing about the house furiously waving her Latvian flag. 🙂
Well, I admit – If there was a Latvian competing, then we cheered Latvia. If there wasn’t, then America got our cheers. 🙂
*chuckles* Nice joke. I’m pretty sure, though, that sports bras were not invented until after the 1970s.
Don’t trust an woman in a sports bra and never under estimate American women especial Robin she’s mean ole Bully.
