    I've never actually played this before, but I think I would like to.

    And hockey is the world's greatest sport.

    My friends' sister was part of the canadian olympic women's water polo team.

    She was mostly nude on the cover of the canadian edition of Time.

    She came to talk to my class when I was in highschool. The only thing I remember was her telling us how surprisingly often she lost her bathing suit during matches.

    If you've ever seen said cover of Time, you'd know why this was slightly awkward.

    All I know about water polo is that the Hungary - USSR match in the '56 Olympics was, apparently, awesome. The accounts of it make me wish they had HD back then.

    The Hungarians destroyed the dirty Russians. They made a documentary and a movie about it too call Freedom's Fury.

    The U.S. was ridiculously good during the 80s.

    I can't think of anything to add to this thread other than 'I approve of water polo'. I was a swimmer though, so I would just wander over and watch games from time to time in the adjacent pool when I was at a swim meet.

    As far as the 'Swimmers have the best bodies, and this includes Water Polo players' statement goes- do you include divers? Because all the good divers I saw during my watersports years were ripped as well. They're like gymnasts x swimmers.

    I used to set hole because I was the least scrawny member of my team and I actually had a backhand. Unfortunately, those were my only qualifications. As a result, I hate humanity. Anyone who is good at that position is simultaneously awesome and can rot in hell.

    Yeah, I was a lefty so I almost always got to play, even though I wasn't the best guy on the team (I was middle-high in the pack, though). Also, I'm big enough and have big enough hands that I can do a fake pass where my arm fully extends forward, but still hang onto the ball. It's pretty funny to see guys who don't normally get faked out to fully turn around, then you put the ball back in the water and swim around them. :D

    It is in the OP...it is actually "hole set" but you "set the hole". I think I included a link to a good Yugoslavian hole set.

    The "hole" is the position right in front of the goal on offense. He is assaulted throughout the entire game. If he gets the ball, he's fouled a lot faster and harder than anyone else, and almost always has two guys on him, since he's in by far the best position to score if left undefended.
