Spring Dance Rehearsals (UNC Women’s Soccer 2013)

Cheney may have competition for that “Best Dancer” title. I think we need a dance off to settle this. On Studio 90, of course.

Who is handling the camera for this Sky Blue stream? The same people who brought you Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield?

Syd with commentary lol 

I was expecting this Syd tweet the second it happened.

I will never look at PB&J the same way again.

Studio 90: WNT Ready for Friendly against The Netherlands

Sorry for the delay with the pure game sound highlight video…tumblr’s being stupid. I’ll have to figure it out tomorrow, but I’ll definitely get it up here somehow!

There were highlights with just game sound at the end of the stream. I don’t know if anybody loves just pure game sound like I do, but I’ll try to find a way to post that sometime today, as I’ve reached my video limit. 

And on a side note, I love how we have the depth to field two almost completely different lineups and dominate. If I were a scout for another team, I’d curl up in the fetal position and cry.

Ali Krieger’s first goal of 2013

CORRECTION: Thanks guys, I hear you. Her first goal in EVER.

Happy Birthday Reece!

Congratulations on attaining all of my USWNT-related goals by the age of 3.

During an interview with US Soccer, Tony DiCiccio tells the story of how Alex Morgan got to where she is now.
The fact that she almost didn’t make the team surprises me.

ussoccer.com: Tell us about the emergence of Alex Morgan and Sydney Leroux.
TD: “The second challenge with that team was…

I remember reading the post-season review of the 2008 U-20s by Tony. He complained that the scouting network was inadequate. He said that they found Alex, Christine Nairn, and others through some luck and good referrals by college coaches in April 2008 - right before the World Cup. It’s scary to think that Alex Morgan could’ve fallen through the cracks. 

It also makes you wonder if the next Alex Morgan is out there, just waiting for the right people to notice. Will she fall through the cracks or will she get her shot at greatness?

NWSL, I’m hoping you give her that shot.
