Totally non-sport related, but I fell in love with Fuengirola, a bit southish of Malaga, when I camped there during my requisite hippie spring break trip in ‘72. It’s my place when the meditation masters tell me to picture a place in my head.

And it makes me nuts when we refer to teams as “the lady warhammers” or to events like the “ Women’s World Cup.” I may have created some ill feelings when I announced that since the women do better in their World Cup, they should get top biiling with no adjective, and the one in which the guys play should be known as “the Men’s World Cup.”

Great to read your thoughts on where we are after all the hype has settled down. Good to have it, but now we're back in the trenches as the fights for equity continue. Thanks for carrying us along, Melissa
