The problem with foot faults

Well, it's obvious, isn't it? It is not the foot's fault. It's the person attached to the foot's fault.

Which brings up net faults. Has the net done something wrong? Of course not. "Oh, excuse me for getting in the way of your fingers!" Like blaming the toaster for zapping you when you stick a fork into it to dislodge that damned bagel. (Do not try this, by the way. I know it's tempting, but trust me.)

And what's with all the blame in volleyball anyhow? Rotation faults, service errors, blocking errors, attack errors, passing errors, illegal attacks ... the list goes on and on. There's too much fingerpointing, metaphorically, and whistle-blowing, literally. How's a player supposed to feel good about herself?
