These programs are as different and as identifiable as candy bars

The best thing about a buy fifa 15 coins Snickers candy bar is that you know what you’re getting every time you buy one. If you love milk chocolate, a Snickers is great. If you love peanuts, Snickers has got ’em. Caramel? It’s there every time. The absolute best thing about a Snickers bar (or a Hershey Bar, Milky Way, etc.) is that you get the same quality every time you buy one.

If you came off a 10-mile hike in Bangladesh and were fortunate enough to come upon a candy machine, how could you not pull the Snickers lever, especially if it were competing with several exotic candy bars that you had never seen before?
Even if Snickers wasn’t your favorite candy bar, you would probably still pull the lever because you could bite into it knowing what it was going to taste like and being confident that it wouldn’t introduce you to some form of mad cow disease. There is beauty in consistency. Although we are inter- ested in the exotic we are fans of the predictable.

We follow the same inclination in our backing of exceptional athletic teams. We loved the Chicago Bulls not only because they won but also because they would impose their will on an opponent with exceptional defensive intensity. It didn’t happen some of the time. It happened every time in every important game, usually five minutes into the second half.

The outstanding women’s intercollegiate volleyball programs all have consistent identifiable qualities. These programs are as different and as identifiable as candy bars:

• Long Beach State is synonymous with technical ballhandling and an offense that has more rhythm than hip-hop does.

• For years Penn State was a team built around one exceptional offen- sive player while everyone else played great defense and didn’t make attack errors.

• Nebraska volleyball is cheap fifa 15 coins built around exceptional athletes who can block and transition off a gifted setter.
