I Heart Kerri Walsh

RESIZE: AAA

First Kobe and now the women’s beach volleyball stars. I saw this on a few other websites, but wanted to post it here. I love this clip and I love these girls. I love the way the play and the way they conduct themselves on and off the court, but this clip of Kerry Walsh with Misty May-Treanor going out of her way to give the President a huge and heartfelt thumbs up is just awesome. On primtime NBC nonetheless.

    Great to see- I’m suprised NBC didn’t try to cut the feed once she started saying something nice about President Bush.

      here, here.

      As I was writing my post Rush Limbaugh also discussed how the Olympics is undermining Obama. Made me feel like I was onto something.

      I watched this live and myself and my wife both got misty eyed….no pun intended.

    We have a lot to be proud of here. God bless America.

      I suck at computers. There is actually a longer clip that starts with Misty talking about her deceased mother I believe which makes this clip all that more moving and thoughful that they really went out of their way to thank the President

        Didn’t work. Go U.S.!

    Of course we clip it after the thank you mr president part in most vids. Typical.
    We all are proud americans when we represent our country no matter who’s president. Its not that big of a deal. You’d do the same if your leader came across the world to see you play and you were also successful.

    But I love those women. Awesome ATHELETES, they are nearly untouchable.
