Is Beach Volleyball really an Olympic sport, or is it just eye candy for us old guys?

Question

Can't stop watching. Whew. Spike it again.

Answer 1

yes i can't believe it too. its not even a real sport is it? bowling should make it if beach volleyball did.  

Answer 2

Much like mud wrasslin'.

What do you mean "old guys"?

Answer 3

It was and always has been...a MAN'S WORLD!!! ;~)  

There are ulterior motives at work everywhere.....*S*

Answer 4

Haha! Next Olympics they'd be spraying those uniforms on!! There is certainly a beauty factor to it, but it is a great sporting spectacle as well!

In saying that it wouldnt be the same if the women weight lifters adopting that style of uniform though.  

Answer 5

well, they do play pretty good volleyball...

but yeah, the replays with butts jiggling, and cleavage shots are just nice.

Answer 6

Funny. It's not really a Roman sport. It's quite popular right now.

Even for younger guys or girls depending what s*x is playing is enjoy the fine specimen they are.

Answer 7

It is one of the few sports I could play. I love it, whether it's played by men or women. I watched all the games with excitement. The ambidextrous Rosenthal did one body corkscrew in the early games and struck with his left hand in an almost impossible move. I was astounded. Too bad he struck out in the end, so to speak.

Answer 8

Beach volleyball isn't a real sport, period.  It's a recreational activity.  Why it's consistently shown in prime time is beyond me.  What happened to weight lifting, wrestling, rowing, diving, shooting, and boxing?
