Misty May-Treanor intimidates the hell out of me, she's so good. It's like the year anniversary of the last time she lost and yet she's feverish and coughing like crazy, and she and Kerri are still dominating. Lord.

Sweet! I was watching the semi finals to this the other day.. I felt bad for Ian Miller. I'm glad he finally got his medal this time!
He put some amazing rides in today. Double Clear. Yes he does deserve the medal he was close so many times and finally he got his medal.

One more game for my beach volleyball girls!

May-Treanor probably has 102 fever, but her and Walsh are still kicking people's ass.

No kidding. Did you see the footage of her practically coughing up a lung during the breaks? It's amazing how she never lets anything get to her. She officially hasn't lost a match in more than a year, now.

What a winning streak! That's just amazing.

Thanks for the medal update

They did amazing today! Hats off to May- Treanor though, I can't imagine how she gets out there and does it when she is so sick

107 wins in a row now, wow.

And as amazing as Misty's run is, it's worth noting that this is also the 90-somethingth (yeah, I know that isn't a word) consecutive win May-Treanor and Walsh have had as a team. And obviously, a great deal of those (all, really) have come when Kerri's shoulder wasn't 100%. They're pretty much beyond awesome.

Yeah, I always hear how many matches in a row they've won as a team. That's a great accomplishment.

I really hope (and think) they will repeat as champions on Wednesday. Can't wait to see that match.

Ahhh, I hope so. They're so adorable on and off the court. I love how they obviously have a real respect for each other and a friendship even when they're not playing. It's kind of refreshing to see.

It really is.

I love to hear Walsh talk. I just think she's so cute and seems like so much fun. I always listen to their interviews. I look to see if her wedding ring is taped up now, too. Hee.

They showed May-Treanor's comedic side the other day! She was dancing on the steps of somewhere and it was hilarious.

Yeah, apparently Misty's the more lighthearted of the two? It kind of surprised me, although I'm not really even sure why. The feature with the Chinese volunteer finding Kerri's ring was so adorable. I cracked up at the expression on his face after she slapped his butt. Too funny.

Actually, it surprised me too, because she just didn't seem like the one that would be. But, that just goes to show, you just never know.
