Obama/Glory Defensive Partnership Has No Future

By: Jan | March 7th, 2010

Glory, mascot of the women’s soccer team Washington Freedom, commits a foul following a mistimed tackle. Michelle Obama succeeds with the initial tackle, but the kid just picks up the rebound and breezes past her. In her defense, her aim wasn’t to stop the kids in the first place, but to get them moving.

“Mrs. Obama’s participation in a soccer clinic Friday in Washington coincided with the announcement of a new partnership between the U.S. Soccer Foundation and the National Alliance for Hispanic Health.
The groups are launching a 25-city tour to provide children and their families with free health screenings and soccer clinics. It’s part of the first lady’s “Let’s Move” anti-obesity effort.
Mrs. Obama said soccer gets people moving and their hearts beating.”

If I just got owned by a six-year old, I’d claim it was for charity as well.

OWNED! In her defens(c)e, however, she did sound drunk in the speech at the end.

Yup, fixed it. The mascot's name was still lurking in the back of my head there.

I think you mean the Washington Freedom. The Glory are Washington's professional women's softball team.
