10th Annual REAL SPORTS Most Important Moments in Women's Sports

Good thing we waited until today to publish the 2010 Most Important Moments in Sports edition. While the consecutive game win streak record belongs to UConn, Stanford's decisive victory on December 30th, means Stanford was the last team to beat UConn before their streak started and the team that ended the streak.

What was the most important moment in women's sports for you? Do you agree or disagree with our Top 10 selections? Let us know your opinion.

While your thinking about your selections - why not forward over this post to your friends - and visit our Facebook page - we'd love it if you'd "like" us and why not become a friend of "REAL SPORTS magazine" on Facebook as well!

Celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the 1999 Women's World Cup


This holiday weekend is a perfect time for friends and families in three select cities to take in some women's professional soccer. The WPS (Women's Professional Soccer) league will have teams playing in New Jersey (against Boston) on July 4th; and Bay Area (against St. Louis) and Washington (against Los Angeles) on July 5th. If you're not in one of these markets, you can watch the Washington Freedom vs. first-place Los Angeles Sol on Fox Sports Soccer channel.

While you’re at it - watch for special events and activities celebrating the 10th Anniversary of the 1999 Women's World Cup - the summer long sports extravagancy was much more than just a U.S. victory and Brandi's abs - Marla Messing, Donna de Verona and the entire organizing committee created a world-class event that rivals any sports event the U.S. has held.

I remember the excitement around the opening match at Giant's Stadium with Pele in the stands as much as I do the actual win after a grueling match, extended play, overtime and penalty kicks finale.

As we celebrate the freedom of our independence, perhaps take a moment to support the opportunity women have in the U.S. to play sports professionally.

Enjoy your long weekend.
