UNITE & STRENGTHEN

I'll always remember AO in the World Cup Qualifier against Jamaica. I scored an early goal and made a point of saluting them because they were making so much noise and showing so much support.

We are all one big soccer dysfunctional family.

Hats off to the American Outlaws, they have driven it on their own. They used to come in dribs and drabs and they have banded together and created a voice.It is brilliant for us now, to see the banners and the colors. They go where we go. For us as players it gives you goose bumps. There are men and women who have decided that it means something important in their life to get behind us and get loud and supportive. That is incredibly moving to me. The main thing is just to know their mindset, that they are right there to dig in and fight with you. Soccer is a team game and that extends to them.

I truly love this game and it will be in my life forever. Now, I'm looking forward to being a USWNT fan. American Outlaws, where do I sign up?"
