Think about your favorite class from high school. Come on... it hasn't been that long... even for an old-timer. Now think about the most exciting volleyball match you have ever seen... with outstanding physical accomplishments, roaring crowds, media coverage, emotions running high, etc. Do you still think they have the same atmosphere?
