Putin Will Lose, Here's Why by Johnny Harris

[@ZoomZip]

You can tell he is still salty about that guy tipping on the last point..and i dont blame him. It's all or nothing in big important game like that. Not some freeball tip.

[@michaelyear1]

He overran the set from what it looked like

[@maksimsotnikov1869]

Thank you, Brothers! It was a great game, I remember watching it as a kid. And I would like to note that it is a pity that that era is passing away. Just look at the composition of the Italians, no matter what the name - is a legend. I want to note that I am from Russia myself, and I have always considered Russians and Ukrainians a fraternal people. I am very ashamed of what is happening and very, very sorry that we cannot influence the situation. It's hard to understand in America, but here in Russia, now, I'm taking a risk when I write this. There is a tracking of those who disagree with the position of the state... I hope that all this madness will end soon. I am writing so that you know, not all Russians are for bloodshed. Many were simply brainwashed on television. I've always loved volleyball, and your guys, such as: Reid Priddy, Lloyd Ball, Clay Stanley, David Lee, Richie Lambourne - I've always dreamed of standing on the same court with them. They inspired me. Unfortunately, this is unlikely to happen. Thank you for reading it. We are for peace on the planet. We grieve with you

This is humanity at its finest. FINEST! In a time where the world is confused and divided. You sir are an absolute DIAMOND for humanity. You are the chosen one…..🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@tuomasmatikkala1595]

Great video and story! I will support too and I'm glad that we can offer safe place to be here in Finland. We have now about 500 people in our city (most of women and childrens) and more is coming every week.

[@JoeCainvolleyball]

What an amazing story. Ordered 10 of the bracelets and I will hand them out to my volleyball community asking that they donate to his venmo for the bracelet. If it works like I hope it does I will be ordering many more. Thank you for bring this to our volleyball community. Time for us to help give back.

[@JoeCainvolleyball]

@@themckibbinbrothers to me the volleyball community is like family. We all help each other from time to time but when a family member is in need we do all we can to help them in any way possible.

Great and important video. Loved the rhythm of the outside hitter and the bass drum of the music. Awesome editing! The message at the end was really impressive... Shared it with all indoor and beachvolleyball groups here in Berlin. Keep up the good work!

Got a few bracelets for our family. We will wear them proudly every day, and especially at my kids matches. Thanks for sharing this, fuck I love this community.

[@volleyballvideos6426]

Great video! And I love having a way to support Ukraine through a Ukrainian volleyball player. Its just madness what's happening there. Its starting to look more like genocide with civilians being targeted, than just a political takeover.

[@GustavoSilva-ny8jc]

I think i can call Riley "Egg" right now 😂😂. I also shaved my head once, this brings memories.

[@BatteryAZID]

Thank you for using volleyball as a medium to support global affairs! Bought a small and medium bracelet because I wasn't sure which would fit better. It's for a good cause!

[@sagresUKR]

Thank you very much for the support of Ukraine!

[@subtleslime2594]

I love this sport. BUT I am not able to play it with a team nor on a real court. My highschool doesn't have a team out here in NJ. I don´t even have any friends I can play with. Maybe one day I will be able to fully play this sport.

[@broth6]

I grew up in NJ and although 10+ years ago there were not many volleyball opportunities, try googling local clubs or open gyms. You might be surprised at what you find

[@marcosmarcosmarcos1133]

@espn Take notice and spread. This is how sports can make meaningful and directly impactful changes in the world.

Never underestimate the heart of a Ukrainian That story was amazing and inspirational to hear especially in the wake of what is happening in Ukraine.
