Wheeeeere... to... begin.
Holy smokes. I couldn't tell you when I last went to Crew Stadium for soccer game.
And forget just
any game, how about a US Women's National Team game? Tonight was a friendly game [meaning it doesn't count for much of anything; trust me, gameplay is
not always super-civil, haha], so Becky, Mike and I headed north to Columbus after work and met Brandon there. I gotta tell ya, it's a beautiful sight.

I love everything about going to league soccer games. I grew up on the stuff and honestly, I don't think I will ever tire of it. I came tonight with burning excitement to see Hope Solo & Abby Wambach: Solo because I think she's pretttttyyyy much
the perfect female athlete, and Wambach because, well, I've been a fan of hers since the early 90's and she's now the veteran on the USWNT. She's part of my childhood just as much as the fab five were [Mia, Brandi, Julie, Joy & Kristine], along with the other greats like Briana & Michelle.

And we visited the merch tent.. because we're
those fans, and completely not-at-all embarrassed by it.
 |
| yep. owned. |
We ended up at a tie 1-1 versus the Kiwis, but it was a good game to watch and we had ourselves a great little time doing just that, so hey.. not upset at that at all!
