Politics: Choose Freedom
I think the Washington Freedom are great. I think the idea of a women's professional soccer league is awesome. The Freedom won the league's championship yesterday on penalty kicks in stunning fashion. I think that's great.
I'm disappointed, therefore, that a sport still in the thrall of athletic talent and not necessarily bought and paid-for by corporate interests is struggling like the WUSA is right now.
UPDATE: Charles in comments points out that I was smokin' crack when I wrote about the penalty kicks in yesterday's Founders Cup. I was thinking about the previous game (which advanced the Freedom to the championship game), in which the Freedom defeated Boston on penalty kicks. Thanks, C.
