We reported about Sinha’s tragic story a couple of weeks ago. She lost her leg after she a robbery & she was pushed off a moving train. O U C H! Well, it appears that Sinha is being questioned by police because her statement seems to be inconsistent. Is she really telling the truth? Is she lying? Did she lost her leg for the wrong reasons?
What’s up with volleyball superstars getting injured just when the international season is about to start? At first it was Parodi, then Nikolov, followed by Salparov and now Gyorgy Grozer? Germany will miss him for sure. The opposite hitter is diagnosed with “Raynaud syndrome”.

One volleyball living legend from Cuba. One of the world’s most unforgettable athletes who played his heart out at the 2000 Olympics. The Volleyball Player of the Century in 2001. A 3 time Olympic from Argentina who represented his team for almost 16 years. The first African-American woman to win a Beach Volleyball World Championship in 1986. One of the founding fathers of the FIVB, representing Czechoslovakia at the inaugural FIVB organization meeting in April 1947. No doubt they are volleyball legends.

The hand gesture “PEACE SIGN” is thought to have begun in Europe during World War II when a V for victory – and not to be confused with the catholic gesture of benediction – was painted on walls as a symbol of freedom from occupying forces. The sign was widely used by peace movements in the 1960s and 1970s as a symbol of victory for peace and truth.

It all started at a high school girls volleyball match in Indiana. After a physical confrontation involving 2 dads & 1 extra, the case is getting bigger and bigger! One father has claimed that the incident has caused him several injuries & has also affected his income. We think this is a silly case. Even the judge asked them “Parents, what the h*ll?”. Toink!
They did it again and again and again and again and again! Kurek, Wlazly, Winiarski, Antiga, Falasca and Team Skra Belchatow have won the 2010/2011 edition of the Polish League. After a forgettable Champions League, Poland’s #1 team finally has a reason to celebrate! Click this link to see tons of pics and the results!

We just received an exclusive statement from one of the best players from the USA, Tara Cross Battle, who played with Stacy at the 2000 & 2004 Olympics.
Why not? Despite not winning any NCAA title, we still think she’s one of the best young players in the nation. It will be such an honor and a great experience to see her play in one of the most prestigious leagues in the world.
We bet she has a room in her house just for her INDIVIDUAL awards. LoL! We know this isn’t the first time she won something like this.Turkey has awarded her another prestigious honor she can add to her collection. We wonder how many individual awards she has received over the last few years. The left handed opposite is definitely 1 of the best scorers in the world.
