Hope Solo an embarassment
I expected more from her than what she did. Sweden chose the only strategy they could play to stay in the game and it worked. But instead of congratulating them for their game plan Solo chose to be a sore loser.

Solo is a black hole.

I hope this is the last we've seen of her - the door slamming her ass on the way out.

She's a pretty crappy person. She's a pretty white woman so she gets a pass from the media though

Wait, the EXACT same thing was said with the way Portugal won the Euros. It was a crappy way to win if you actually like the sport of soccer. She just echoed what almost EVERY commentator of the Euros said.

It is the equivilant of playing four corners in basketball and winning 19-16. The game sucks and is boring, but if that's the ONLY way you can win... that's exactly what you do.

She shouldn't have called them cowards but it is honestly a boring way to play the game but it is a way they could win.

But when games can be controlled, managed and manipulated and only 1 score wins things like this happen.

That is part of the game. Just like when the Rogues took advantage of the narrow pitch when they defeat the Cosmos. You play to your strengths. As it was Solo had a bad game in the goal as Sweden only had 6 shots for the game and only 2 on goal.

And playing boring ass 4 corners basketball used to be a part of the game... so much that they had to make it illegal because it is a terrible way to win the game.

It ABSOLUTELY is a chicken way to win a game and Hope was correct in they way she expressed it. You can call her names all you want, which is the ONLY thing worthy of condemnation, but she only said what every soccer purist says about that way of winning the game.

Boring style or not. They only had 2 shots on goal and solo missed half of them.

Not insinuating you were not there. But if everyone was at the game which has claimed to be there the Rogues would have set NASL attendance records. LOL

Roger that. The last MSL exhibition had maybe 200 people in the LB. And that was with homegrown Ross Paule on the Denver side.

Haha, I think 75,000 Tiger fans attended the UT game in 96.

There are also about 10,000 members of the 4100 club.

Honestly cannot remember if i was there or not. Attended as many as i could. But always sat up at top away from crowds. You can see so much developing away from ball sitting up higher.

Trying to remember. Didn't they try selling beer in bottles or cans the first game?
