Congratulations to the USA Women's World Cup Championship with their victory over Japan. A new hero, Carli Lloyd, had a hat trick.
Pretty awesome huh! Title IX has really done some good for the young women in sports. Now if they can only find a way to pay them to go Pro - THAT would be even better. Lloyd is all over the sports channels - so is the goalie. YOU GO GRRLS! nwlivewire
I watched some of the games, England v Japan an England own goal into injury time in the semi final, let Japan beat us. would have been a great final USA vs England but not to be. Well done the USA, they demolished Japan.
They need sponsors and people interested enough to fill the stadiums. It's an uphill battle, especially in the US where the sport isn't all that popular to begin with.
In my Job capacity in which I choose to not outline, in the last month I have shared company with the following teams in a very close quarters and social setting. Team Cameroon, Switzerland, Japan, Ecuador, Canada and USA. It has been an amazing last month for me and I met all the players and coaches along with the team doctors. I have been involved with these teams all of June and 1st week of July. An amazing group of gals and and it was a pleasure also to have gone to 3 games also. The Womens World cup was a blast. Special hellos out to (George) of team Cameroon for the time we shared!
Mr. Sepp Blatter, thanks for chiming in. Would you agree the USA women were the best lookers of the bunch?
