VIDEO BREAKDOWN: MY VOLLEYBALL MAGAZINE TOP 10 POLL BALLOT
HA! Robonthemic posted this poll on VT, and I just knew it was you that voted for Pfeiffer. And fair play, because only the top line really matters.
You’ve got a good camera presence Vinnie. Maybe a little raw, but you’re at ease and you know what you’re talking about. (On my best day, I could only manage one of those) I’ve enjoyed these little videos you started putting out over the last few weeks of the season.
Thanks. Actually shooting these videos with an iPad mini. Not to sound like an Apple commercial, but amazing device for a good price.
