Presidential privilege
To Kevin, et al:
Subject: What happens in Beijing, stays in Beijing
I am fully aware of how riled up some readers get when we allow talk of politics to seep into our sports coverage, so in sharing this photo with you, I am not going to get into a political discussion. No matter how hard you try, Kevin.
In addition, I am not going to tell you how ridiculous this photo is. And I am not going to note that this is the leader of the free world. And that of all the Americans in China right now, we shouldn't have to worry about how this particular one is representing us. And I also will try not to wonder aloud what Matt Treanor must be thinking. Nor will I ask if this is how Cabinet meetings begin. And I'll try not to suggest that a Bush-Edwards ticket could've set our country back a full century.
I won't get into it, Kevin. So don't even ask me.

Comments
Misty & Kerri are indeed playful - befitting the sport of beach volleyball that not only party-like, but very demanding. For all you Olympics fans, a new book digs deep inside the sport of pro beach volleyball to uncover all the behind-the-scenes stories about the life and times on the AVP pro beach tour - the largest in the world. All the struggles and successes are captured in this exciting and groundbreaking book. "Order On The Court", written by Tom Burke, is now available at www.orderonthecourt.com and has been published just in time for the Olympics in Beijing.
