    I went to school with #ThanksAbby and #OnlyOneAbby written on my arms. everyone asked why and I said a soccer player who I looked up to was retiring. Everyone said I can find someone else to look up to.... that's not happening. You'll always be my roll model and the person that I look up to Abby. ❤ ❤❤

    +Niraj Saini You're exactly right. Her playing days may be done, but that doesn't change who she is and what she gave us. And while she's retiring as a player I doubt this is the last we see of her. At the very least, we see her influence in the rest of the team.

    It's corporate greed has ruined the beautiful game, because the fact that you can't place a Bud light or a Buffalo Wild Wings commercial every two minutes has held back soccer in the United States for so long. It the youth sport which has the largest participation. The world's most popular sport yet here in America it is not embrace because the format doesn't work for the big broadcasters.

    Even if I'm canadian, Abby was one of my idol. Always loved the way she was playing and her attitude. I play hockey (no I don't play soccer) and I choose the same jersey number than Abby. I got the chance to see her at the world cup when she came in Ottawa. She didn't play a lot but just having the chance to see her live was one of the greatest moment. I put my two ticket stubs in a frame and hung it in my home gym beside my Abby wambach poster. Abby you are the best :-)

    I only watched her for recent few years, but I like her playing style from the first moment I saw. She's big, prolific and strong. A complete forward. Unfortunately, I just knew that she was retired. I don't know if I will watch USWNT again with her absence. And I think it would be a long time before the world found another talent like her. Good luck Abby!

    I haven't touched a soccer ball in over 10 years. I'm an equestrian, not a footballer. I'm even new to the whole world of the USA women's football team. But still, in that short time I knew her, Abby managed to inspire me more than anyone else. She made me realize there's no end in sight. There's no limit to how far I could take my riding. She made me realize my goal of wanting to be one of the top ranked riders in the world, in dressage. She made me realize that I can't do that by just sitting here, hoping it'll someday happen. I need to get up, and work harder than anyone else, when I'm both on and off my horse. For riders, training never ends. I'm up at 4 every morning to go train with my horse, before going to school. And when the day's over, I go back to the stables to see him again. Abby made me realize, that I can be whatever I work to be. One day, it'll be me winning that gold medal at the Olympics. One day it'll be me who is in the FEI World Equestrian Games. And they'll ask me who inspired me to go as far as I did. I won't say any rider's name, I'll say.... Abby Wambach. Thank you for helping me realize everything I can become💕

I think this team is remembering and thinking about Abby. Amazing video.
