I suspect that this article may be underestimating it. http://sports.yahoo.com/news/world-cup-hero-carli-lloyd-183100614.html
On the drive back home from our vacation on Monday, my GF and I played a game of possible promo's Carli could do. It lasted about a half hour -- but it included the realization that NJ Gouv0nor Chris Christy is going to want a photo op of Lloyd, HAO, and Rampone (the three Jersey Girls)
Heath was born in Morristown and went to Ridge High School. But Lloyd and Rampone are the only true Jersey girls, staying in their home state to play their collegiate soccer.
HAO was born in New Brunswick and her UNC bio says she grew up in East Rutherford. That makes her as New Jersey as Thomas Edison, who has a city named after him.
Wow. You just disavowed Amber Brooks, Claudio Reyna, Tim Howard, Yael Averbusch, Josy Altidore, Tab Ramos, Alecko Iskandarian, and a host of others. But you also disavowed Giuseppe Rossi, and I'm fine with that.
