I'll take door number 1, though both probably apply. 😉

For one of the three used for a three ball rotation. I guess I could have just ditched the evidence of my remarkable ineptness. Then we'd have been down to two. Then during the match when one of the balls disappeared briefly we'd have been down to only one. Good thing the match didn't go to extra sets! (BTW, the disappearing ball turned up in a trash can sitting in a bowl with a half eaten chili cheese dog.)
Jurassic Referee wrote3) Ah! I remembered Chuck Elias telling me that he was gonna start doing volleyball too. Now I know what his job was---"Leatherman". How did you carry him? In one of them papoose thingys like new mommies carry their babies around in?
No need for special hardware, he fits discreetly in my back pocket.
