It was on a Saturday morning. I was lying down on my bed half asleep, when she walked into my room and called me. I remember rising slowly, grinning ear to ear and saying "yes", like I was the BOMB. It took me a year to get over that feeling. Why I'm playing for the Sirens: When I started playing Women's Pro Football there were no teams in California. I was very serious about this game and wanting to stay in a climate similar to California, so in the Summer of 2000 I temporarily relocated to Daytona Beach, Florida and played my first season for the Barracudas (7-1). In the Spring of 2001, I practiced with the Sirens and we played an exhibition game in Hawaii. That summer I went back to Florida, but this time I joined The Miami Fury ( 6-1) who were a second year team and plus the Barracudas folded. I was planning on playing with the Sirens in the Fall of 2001 after the Fury's season was over. Due to the tragedies that took place on 9/11/01 the East Coast teams ended their seasons early. In October of 2001, the West Coast teams were up and running and I joined the Sacramento Sirens (7-1-2). Not only was this a chance for me to play football in the Golden State, but my family, friends and football fans got to see women playing Women's Pro Smash Mouth Football. This is my second year as a Siren. I'm here because I love football and I love the Sirens.
