When you do something historic, something nobody before you was able to achieve, it’s mostly good. You get all the praise, the accolades, forever etched in history as the first — an honor that will live on until the day the sport ceases to exist — it’s great. Mostly. There's also the other side to that coin. The side that, for all intents and purposes, forces you to play guinea pig. No experience of others to learn from, no past examples to lean on, everything from this point forward is brand new not just for the San Diego Wave FC, but for everyone.
