Beach Volleyball has a Love/Hate Relationship with TV Stardom.

Why does this "highly photogenic" sport have a problem with thier popularity?

    • I can't possibly imagine the popularity; a quick comparison of women's to men's TV ratings might be quite enlightening though I think.

    • I think it has something to do with how they pat each other on the butt after a good play... just kidding

      we all know sexy bodies, scantily clad, can hypnotize most any demographic, especially the ones the advertisers are going for.
