Michelle Akers is as delightful off the field as she was awe-inspiring on it. Here is the transcript of her ESPN chat from yesterday. http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/chatESPN?event_id=4074 Can we get this woman to run for office?
I particularly liked the way she responded to the individual who did not identify himself because he wanted to bash the team and the veterans.
What grace, what humor, what a wonderful touch with ALL of the participants. Apparently, she is much more than special soccer player, she's a special person. Thanks for sharing.
Better yet, could we get Michelle Akers named as commentator for WWC matches? She was wonderful in the few games she did after retiring. She speaks directly, knows the game like only the greatest woman player ever can, and is honest in her criticism. What a change that would be from the sorry group we've had to listen to this year.
