[Woneone]

Is it just me, or was the the most oddly officiated game in quite a while?

It's like at half time the officials went in and started reading the rulebook.

"Oh, shit. Yea, you're right. That hand-checky thing IS in here. We should start calling that."

Jewel's ankle looked bad on that replay. I hope she is alright. You could see in everyone's face that we can't loose her. Great come back by the ladies. This is a championship team. They might not win it all in the end, but the character they show game after game is championship caliber. Wonderful!
