    Fear M9posted a link to a USA Today article in the
    WUSA forum. Here is part of it...

    "Preseason games: Next month marks the start of exhibition season for the WUSA, and the league plans to place its teams in various markets that would otherwise not get a chance to see some of the world's top female players.

    Wilmington, N.C., Phoenix, Las Vegas and Houston are among the markets where the league plans to hold games. Rochester, N.Y., and Memphis are other cities the league plans to bring teams to. Such games generate valuable publicity for the league, and each team receives appearance fees and expense-paid trips to each venue.

    There have been Spirit preseason games in El Paso, Fullerton, and Las Vegas. So I wonder if Phoenix would be the next logical place to play?

    That's where I screwed up...I thought the Spirit played the Arizona Heatwave down there last season but it was the Cybercrabs that played 'em on 9/14/02. They played at a HS.
