Although I did put Rampone as the USWNT player I would like to allocate to Chicago (i like the captain-ism, the fact she's a center defender!), I could definitely see her in NJ and think that could be a good situation for her.; ▶ Reply to This

Can the WPS commissioner, draft back Abby Wambach to The Washington Freedom aka Le Blue Ladies? (nickname since WUSA). Please? (Is that to much to ask?)
B'cause, that's where she's, belong, when she was drafted to Le Blue Ladies during WUSA 2002 draft.
Washington Freedom make what she is TODAY! Hat off to Coach Jim Gabara.
One have to remember, before 2002 & 2003, did anyone knows, who ABBY is, & how good she is? NOOOO!, ZERO!, NIL!, KABISSS!!.
Only, WE, the Washingtonian, the Washington Freedom (Le Blue Ladies) die-hard/ardent fans knows.
We the fans, who went to RFK Stadium in Wash, DC, in hot, steamming summer for 3 seasons, in every home games, that really knows, Abby is the one, who will make an impact in WUSA's beside MIA HAMM.
The Fans & Le Blue Ladies, is fortunate to have Mia & Abby as Freedom twin strikers, which sometimes, make a havoc & hell, in front of the opponent goal mouth.
I remember, reading in WUSA's blog, how some others club fans from Atlanta Beat, Boston Breakers, San Jose CyberRay, Philedelphia Charges, New York Power, Carolina Courage & San Diego Spirit, how some of those team's fans says Oh Washington Freedom will not win the game vs their favourite team, or will never win WUSA Founder Cup Championship, or Mia this, Mia that, Abby this, Abby that, Freedom this, Freedom that, bla, bla, bla, ya di ya di ya da, Now when Abby shine, everybody wants her to be in their team.
We, Washingtonian, feel, the Washington Freedom Soccer Club should make a strong case, in drafted Abby back to join the rest of Le Blue Ladies.
And I personally, would like to see if, (preferrable) Washington Freedom could get Cristianne (Brazil), Fara Williams (ENG), Staggermann (GER), Martina Muller (GER) any others International players, (any others good midfield & defender to in Washington Freedom color).
Go Freedom, Go Le Blue Ladies!!!.

Permalink Reply by HawkCat on September 11, 2008 at 5:19pm: After the allocation is complete, it would be interesting to know the three cities preferred by each of the USWNT players. As a Red Stars fan, I would like to see how many players listed Chicago as their first choice, and how many players left Chicago out of their list of three cities completely.; ▶ Reply to This

But we, the Washingtonians, still prefer Abby to be with Washington Freedom.
But if WPS allocate Abby, to other team, rather than the Washington Freedom, is fine.; ▶ Reply to This
