Whenever Sue Bird would look Breanna Stewart's way during Wednesday's "100 Days Out" event at Times Square, she couldn't help but take a trip down memory lane.
In 2004 Bird was just two years removed from her time as an All-American point guard at UConn when she made her first Olympic team. The announcement lacked the pomp and circumstance of Wednesday's festivities when the 12-member team was announced on NBC's Today Show and then there was the meet in greet in New York featuring athletes from nearly every sport, Olympic legends and First day Michelle Obama. However, the memories of Bird's first taste of life as an Olympian have never subsided.
