9. Examining our disinclinations

Welcome back, Captains! Big trade news in the PVF this past week as Tori Stringer of the Atlanta Vibe was traded to the Columbus Fury in exchange for two first-round draft picks. We review how that looks in the context of current trade policies, and discuss some of our theories / implications. Also this week, a big interview dropped with LOVB’s Director of Operations, Tom Hogan. Nikki listened to the whole hour so you don’t have to, and provides a rundown of the discussion points and new information we have on the second US women’s pro volleyball league to come onto the scene in 2024. PVF played three matches in week eight. Atlanta secured its number 1 spot again with a win over Omaha. “The Blue Teams”, Orlando and Omaha faced off resulting in an Omaha win, and finally Vegas overcame Grand Rapids, in a game that gave us our first setter Player of the Week!  Apologies to those who don’t like coughing sounds. It only happens in the first 5 seconds of the episode. Enjoy! Into data? We love this stats sheet courtesy of r/pvf!
