Steve: If I can improve my vertical jump a few more inches, I think beach volleyball might be my ticket.
Todd: But whenever we play, you just sit on the sand, drink beer, and watch the girls!
Steve: It's a beautiful sport, isn't it?
Todd: To be honest, I don't think you could even win a gold in hopscotch!
Steve: OK, OK. Enough already. We'd better hustle. The contest starts in five minutes.
