The day the Women's United Soccer Association died, I called Tom Stone, the ever-quotable head
coach of the Atlanta Beat, who was grappling with the fresh reality that he was out of a job.
This was just days after his team finished second in the WUSA in 2003 and shortly before the
Women's World Cup, which had been moved to the United States from China because of the SARS
outbreak.
Although I am enjoying the breast beating and hair-shirt wearing that the Bath City community is
engaged in at the moment, my status as a native Atlantan has given me some cheerier football news
to report to you today.
Just over an hour ago Women's Pro Soccer (WPS) has announced the results of their first ever
expansion draft, and as a result the first six members of the new Atlanta Beat roster have been
revealed.
