Women's Soccer Olympic Style

Watching the women's soccer teams this morning compete with each other, USA and New Zealand, I couldn't help but feel history revealing itself in one of its most sincere forms: two groups playing their hearts out to be the best in a non-threatening format, watched by millions around the globe, hosted by a controversial country, coming out of the age of totalitarianism and poverty, doing its best today to showcast the world's athletes.

The women were sensational and I loved watching USA beat New Zealand! If New Zealand had won, I would have felt: you weren't good enough USA.
