Can you tell I'm bored? First USWNT match: December of 2000. Japan v USWNT at the Bank One Ballpark in Phoenix, Arizona. A very quiet crowd. It was Overbeck's last game in a USWNT uniform. Mia came out very early in the second half cuz she was hurting. First WUSA match: May 2001. Beat v Cyberrays at Spartan. I sat with the Rayistas and met some fellow BS'ers like nap, Socceroo, Noah Elliot, and ggayle. Oh yeah and the Beat WON!!!
First WUSA match: Breakers v Courage Exhibition @ UNCG, it was either late 2000 or early 2001 First WNT match: January 12, 2002 USA v Mexico in Charleston, SC.
Same for me. First WUSA game: May 5th (ish) Beat vs Power in Atlanta at Bobby Dodd. Score, 0-0. It was also the first game milbrett (k) and I first really noticed Gro play. It was a good game, hotter than hell, and I got terribly sunburned.
I hate the Norweigians but I think she really opened up a lot of eyes in that match...both in the stadium and on TV.
It was April 21, 2000 whatta great game...Gro sent Bivens flying!!! My first NT game...US/Ireland 9/4/99 we kicked their ass and Millie had 2 goals and an assist!
October '99 at Papa John's stadium in Louisville. KY USWNT vs. Brazil the final game in the Nike Cup. US won 4-2? Great match, also the last oficial game for Tony DiCicco to coach. Brandi and a 15 yearl old Brazilian player (Daniela?) almost got in a fist fight towards the end of the game.
My first WNT game was the semifinal between the US and Norway in the 1996 Olympics. Can't remember the exact day, somewhere around July 28 I think. My first was game was July 21 or 22, 2001 at Spartan stadium between the CRays and the Freedom
My first WNT game was the opening game of the '99 WWC at Giants Stadium. What day was that?? My first WUSA game was the first WUSA game. What was that one? April 15th or something? 2001.
I went to my first USWNT game in October of 2002 - It was the game in North Carolina. I am embarassed to say that I do not remember who the Freedom played in the first WUSA game I went to. Both were awesome experiences though
First WUSA: July 8, 2001 CyberRays v Power I drove with the fam down from Oly. My parents were going to a wedding in Oakland, by miracle I convinced them to take us to the game. CyberRays won 1-0, which pissed my sis off pretty badly. First WNT: November 2, 2002 v Panama.
Will do! Unfortunately, I have to go to bed now. We're taking my sister back to Portland tomorrow. Christmas break is over. G'night. Talk to you soon!
First USWNT game I attended was the '99 WWC final. First WUSA game was the 2001 CyberRays home opener.
The first WNT game was the US v. Scotland game at CCS recently. My first WUSA game will likely be this year when the Beat visit Washington this, I believe, April.
First NWT game: 2002 Gold Cup game at Titan Stadium versus Trinidad & Tobago. It was nice to see the game in company of some BS stalwarts. I have 3 different firsts for the WUSA: 1st time teams played against each other - the Spring Training games at ARCO the first year. Really nice to get to walk amongst and talk with players from all of the teams. 1st true preseason game, at El Paso when the Beat and Spirit started their rivalry. Almost got trampled after the game by some of the PTHers who were heading for the autograph tables. 1st real game, at Torero when the Charge opened the first season against the Spirit. Took my niece to her very first game - a 7pm start, great weather, a sold out crowd - too bad Philly had to spoil things by winning!
First WNT game: September 26, 1999...US vs Brazil. The famous Mac-Fanta incident. And a kick-ass 6-0 US woopin'. First WUSA Game: It's on the list of things to do....
