Women's World Cup update: The 2003 games, pulled from China due to fears about SARS, will be played in the US again! Some games may well be played in the Bay Area. I did not see the women play in 1999, but I did watch Oleg Salenko set a World Cup record in 1994 with five goals. (The Russkies were playing Cameroon, whom scuttlebutt claimed was taking a dive because their players' pay had been interrupted.)
