SharonA, how was the game?

I am anxiously awaiting an update!

On a related note: I'm sure you know that the National team is playing Brazil tonight in Miami. It drives me crazy that it is only going to be shown on Galavision.

Rexfan, it was so fun!!!!! They played all their stars -- Van Nistelroy, Giggs, Solksjaer, Keane, Veron, Scholes, O'Shea, the Nevilles, Silvestre. The skill was incredible.

We didn't get to meet any of the players though. We did get to meet the great Bobby Charlton. He still just exudes enthusiasm for the game. I could've listened to him tell stories for the entire coaching clinic and left satisfied. He was so funny. The skills coach was good too.

The seats were great. There were 66,700+ people there, making it the largest sporting crowd in Seattle for ANY sporting event and the second largest soccer crowd ever (behind the Women's WC championship). I'm going to put this in another thread, but I sat right behind Ethan Zohn from Survivor during the game.

I've been smiling all day!!!

I watched it last night on FSW, Sharon - it sure looked like a great time!

I just wish the Bhoys had put on a better showing!

Cool! I'm glad you had such fun(as if that was a question..LOL). I just read your "Ethan" thread.
