Are you at the Beethoven???

[DCJenn]

I was! Man, that was a hell of a game. They just couldn't connect, could they?

Depends on which team you were behind!

[DCJenn]

That's true! Of all the teams- it stings less because of how far those Japanese women have come in the past four months.

I was thrilled to see how many people showed up to watch today, too. It wasn't as crowded as the men's World Cup but a pretty big crowd anyway. They filled the back room (it has a 19 foot screen back there) and the front was filled, too.

Yup! I watched all by myself. Dh left to get a massage and dd was napping. They missed a great game.

I think Japan had the psychological edge in sudden death. The US women had lost their lead twice at that point.

I actually like watching the women more--fewer fouls and more technical.

We had a great time watching it - DH said its the one female sport that he likes watching as much as the mens'.

The kids & I watched! What a heartbreaker. I'm really happy for Japan.
