Today was a reversal; 2-1 loss. We missed a penalty, saved a penalty. I need to let this one marinate a day or two.

You're still P4 W1 D2 L1, Tex. That's a good start. Don't stew on the little incidents in each game. If your team is playing well, and getting the basics right, it will happen for you over the length of the season.

I need the writeup of the win. If your last report was anything to go by, it'll be a beautiful tear-jerker. And, if you still have anything left after that, perform a dissection of the loss. Go, Chicks!

GO CHICKS!!!! And have fun. That's the important thing. Never forget - though you may be teased by some while you're young, athletic women are undoubtedly sexy. (I really, really shouldn't write stuff like that. When friendly encouragement becomes instantly uncomfortable and borderline lecherous.)

Texan, keep 'em kickin. The W/L record isn't the most important thing there, but it helps to be competetive. What really counts is getting the kids involved, teaching a sport, and giving them another life skill to use. I will bet that some of your ladies go on to be decent high school players, perhaps one or two to play in college. In any case, all of them will have learned how to compete, how to win graciously, and how to learn from losing. Great job, Texan! Now, I echo lbb. When is someone going to come up with a Kickin' Chicks logo so we can get some sales moving? Don't look my way. I got thrown out of art class in Jr. High for being totally without talent.

When is someone going to come up with a Kickin' Chicks logo so we can get some sales moving? I'm actually working on it now. We're having a flag made and are starting from scratch. The colors are royal blue and yellow...that's about all we have.

They're the same colours as my daughter's team. I can see international merchandising opportunities...

Congrats on the win Texan! Ride "Big Mo" to another one!
