US Women's World Cup Team

Although I hate seeing a championship ended with penalty kicks, congratulations to the Ladies from Nippon for taking home a much needed uplifting moment. They earned it.

Congratulations also to the Ladies from the states; you represented us well.
 
Good for Japan... But man that was a hard game to watch... I really thought they were going to pull through....
 
Congratulations to Japan. They need some good news about now, and their team showed great heart. Now, I HATE shootouts. If I were in charge both teams would play 15 min overtime periods until their a**es sucked buttermilk, and someone won. As it is, the US team had their chances to win. They bombed the Japanese goal with shots but couldn't put it in the net. The Japanese settled it on the field and earned their win. Even that final red card made sense stategically in an otherwise squeaky clean game -- think of a defensive back who knows the wide receiver has him beaten and takes a pass interference penalty rather than see the completed pass go into the end zone. The Japanese team earned their win.
