Hope Solo

Hope Solo is a goal keeper for the US Women's Soccer Team. She was pulled from a game in the semis that ended in a 4-0 loss to Brazil in the World Cup. She then gave a press interview where she heavily criticized head coach Greg Ryan and replacement goal keeper Brianna Scurry. The video has sparked a debate about sportsmanship and team spirit.

Despite this unfortunate outburst, Hope Solo is one of the best female goal keepers in the sport.

This week has been a vocal one for sports. Milton Bradley blamed his coach for his knee injury, a statement I disagree with. OSU's Mike Gundy blasted the media and spent his entire interview speaking up for his players! And then Hope Solo blasted Brianna Scurry and Coach Greg Ryan.
