I've gotten used to seeing Carli Lloyd, whom I have known since she was in 8th grade, be on television, score winning goals in big games from the Olympics to the recent World Cup. But until today I never saw a player I had coached featured in an editorial cartoon.
That changed when Pulitzer Prize winning Philadelphia Daily News cartoonist, Signe Wilkinson, drew the cartoon below depicting Lloyd about to instruct Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie how to take a long shot - a reference to Lloyd's goal from midfield in the final against Japan. That long shot resulted from great vision, quick thinking and an assessment of the risk of taking it. Wonder if the governor will apply those same traits in his campaign.
