I have no clue what I’m watching. Not sure how Disney found this game. It’s on ESPN2 now, its an original deuce type sport.

Hackey with volleyball and tennis is best I can explain this with a mini trampoline in middle

At least you didn’t make the mistake of putting it on MLB network and having to hear Tim McCarver

McCarver used to be a good announcer. I’m not sure why he ranked? Guess it was when Deion threw water on him that sent him over the edge.

Sure

It’s volleyball without a box playing field. 2 v 2, and your team can only touch the ball 3 times, with the 3rd hit having to bounce off of the net

There are “pockets” that will change the trajectory of the ball... those are legal

I don't know, since Cardinals hired McCarver, i've really grown to like him. He has a ton of stories with some of the best in the game, especially Cardinal players.

I loathed him on fox, but he's done a 180, while being Cardinal broadcaster. He's brought some wit, i never knew he had. Yesterday he had a few good ones that had his partner rolling.

Fox McCarver bad
Cardinals broadcaster McCarver good. And i think majority of cards announcers are horrible, outside of rooney and McCarver

That I’m old? I knew Deion threw water on McCarver? Or I remember an original deuce sport and knew no ties were allowed

I thought it was interesting that the guy(s) who made it big didn't even invent the game. They remembered it from their childhood and found out they could buy the rights cheaply because it was forgotten.

Repackaged it and made lots of money. I'm just doing everything wrong in life
