2003 was the only 3rd place squad she was on the roster for. She was not on the 1995 or 2007 rosters.
The US won the World Cup 2 of the 3 times Chastain was on the squad. They finished 3rd in 2003 (Chastain only played 45 minutes). Chastain was not...
Never thought I'd say these words, but I support the North Koreans on this. What a colossal f*** up by Olympic organizers, who of all groups...
I assume that would explain it for this time around also - but what about a USOC crest or just a US flag? Seems criminal that the Swoosh is on the...
Sorry if this was covered elsewhere, but I don't see a US crest on their jerseys in any pics I've seen - Anyone know the story behind this?

+1. There are a few who play the game, and far many more who follow it, who expect women's soccer to have the best of both worlds - get more...
Whoever was doing the stats for Freedom home games in 2010 had 52 of the 56 shots taken in those games as being on goal - including 100% (33 of...
So Riley complains that Pia destroyed A-Rod's confidence, then promptly doesn't include her in the first 5?
OK - While USA 1994 is a good defense for using the current set-up for 24-team tournaments using a 3-1-0 system, the just-completed group play for...
Canada replaces New Zealand...
Still, it was three consecutive knockout games - not his fault the men have to play four lol.
Another noteworthy performance along these lines was Roberto Baggio in 1994. Like Abby, slow start to tournament, rescues 10-man Italy with 88th...
And to the amazing Frings... For those wondering about WUSA's start up and MLS, here is the timeline as best I can remember: The 1999 players...
Or we can ignore them, let the dinosaurs have their cave, and get our women's soccer news from more noteworthy sources that give a damn.
I agree this is a shockingly myopic comment from someone of Grant's caliber. The senior women's teams already get one extra major tournament...
Has to be Livestrong Park
3-team groups, especially in the opening round, is not a good idea. If you use this in the first round, you're only guaranteeing teams two...
..and I have passed the mantle on to Kool-Aide - my work here is done :) As for the WWC's effect on WPS, I thought I read somewhere that Rachel...
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/soccer/07/22/japan.twitter/index.html?sct=sc_t2_a5 I thought Police had a lot of time on his hands and...
I don't think it's even a contest. 2011 by far the best for numerous reasons.
Rapinoe had already been subbed out, so someone new had to step in. Of course, whether Rapinoe should have come out is another debate.
Sissi against Nigeria was also in the 104th minute. Golden Goal then, so no chance for a later one. Depending on how you want to count it -...
I think the league will fold, but for problems that existed long before the US lost today. If anything, the WWC run from the Brazil game onward...
If it helps, the US wasn't the only team to crap the bed in PKs today:...
