I am SO SO SO upset by the results of the Women's Volleyball at the Beijing Olympics. I do not understand how the committee had arranged the matches but why did Cuba had to play against USA and China twice when Cuba had already beaten against them in the Preliminaries?? From my point of view, if one teams loses in the prelims then the team is out! How come they still have the chance to compete further? Now China gets a bronze and USA will be fighting for a gold later with Brazil. This is so not fair to the Cuban team because they had to play twice against these 2 teams whereas the other teams had no repeats. I feel so sorry for the cuban team. I supported them right from the start and they always had good games with beautiful spikes and defensive blocks. I just hope they would not be too upset now because IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT!!!
