You realize she’s the goalie right? I mean, if the ball truly doesn’t come to her then she’s got one hell of a team in the field. She happens to be arguably the best woman’s goalie ever. She won the golden glove, and had 5 shutouts in the tournament. She was definitely a main force in the games.
Standing ovation to Lloyd and her hat trick and winning the Golden ball award.
Has she
Tried to eat an Italian?
Put a Frenchie in a coma in. Semi Final?
Finger Fucked a Uraguayan?
If the answer to all of the above is no, she is not crazy.
All I know is, Hope shot first.
Aren’t the last 3 of the OP’s 4 links all about one incident?
She got into trouble in high school for assaulting a classmate, and she got arrested for assaulting her nephew, but the charges were dropped.
Not a nice person, but I don’t see how that justifies her being locked up.
The only one who cares? Twitter was blowing up about her yesterday, ESPN did a big piece, and the attorney general’s office is thinking of restarting the charges against her from the incident with her sister and nephew.
So there is plenty of news on this, lots of people care, great source of TMZ level news reporting.
Here is the biggest comparison to the male players. Hope makes $22k as the Keeper for Seattle. So this is not some pampered 1%.

Now her net worth seems to pretty good, assuming she has kept some of it:
I get that, but you need to realize that Eastern Washington (or E. Oregon, or Idaho) is not really what people think of when they think “Pacific NW.” It’s rural, redneck, and rightwing, and home to some of the most batshit people in the nation.
ETA: China Guy, I watcher her play for the Bombers her Senior year. At the time, she was big and fast and vicious…on the pitch. It took a long time for the locals to admit she might be kinda awful off the pitch as well. I’m honestly surprised every time the Tricycle Harold is willing to say anything about their only sports star.
.
LOL. Good one. 
Yep, she’s a deranged crazy ass bitch who needs to be in an orange jumpsuit. But what pisses me off even more than her actions is the protection the team gives her…to make sure she can play in a game. It’s a freakin’ game, you douchebags. And it’s not a professional team, she’s representing the U.S. Kick her ass off the team. That’s making good use of her stardom. Fuck her. I hope she quickly founds herself in a situation she deserves.
Yes I realize she is the goalie. I was saying we shouldn’t dismiss the entire team on her account, and that in the last 3 games she wasn’t the hero of the game and positive attention wasn’t being heaped on her. Yes, golden glove. But the team did a hell of a job keeping it down-field too. The games I saw were not the Hope Solo Show.
Good grief. Alcohol was invovled. I’m shocked. I suggest that Hope and her half-sister seek alcohol abuse counseling, and that the sports media should go back to sucking up free meals, and sucking down free drinks, from the sports teams they’re reporting on.
150lbs vs 270lbs.
6-foot-8 vs 5-foot-9.
Alcohol vs sober.
Does a prosecutor actually expect to present this to a jury?
…*Obert’s son, who recently turned 18 but whom ESPN is not naming because he was a minor at the time of the incident, declined to be interviewed by Outside the Lines. He’s big, 6-foot-8, 270 pounds, and Solo, who is 5-foot-9, 150 pounds, invoked her nephew’s size to make her case to GMA – something she would state again to espnW.
…Obert says she couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
“I felt like I had just been kicked in the head,” she says. “She should have been happy, but then, randomly, she goes on ‘Good Morning America’ and lies. I was very upset. It never had anything to do with size. She has tried to make him feel small his whole life. He’s not aggressive. She’s a trained athlete. She’s strong.”
…“She (Hope Solo) was swigging out of a bottle of wine that was in her cup holder,” Obert said during her deposition. “She was drunk.”
…Solo continued to drink, and Obert says she had a couple glasses of wine with her sister.
“I was not drunk at all,” Obert said in her deposition, which is under court-ordered seal but was obtained by Outside the Lines. She described herself as buzzed but, “I knew everything that was happening.” Her son told police Solo “drank a lot” that night and, in his deposition, he described enduring “a lot of verbal abuse” from Solo throughout the evening*.
I’m with you. Actually, I pretty much hate the USWNST anyway. Very disappointed, I am, that they won yesterday. On the other hand I don’t really care so it doesn’t really affect me much either way.
You really need to pick a side.
I’m from the Northwest, and the majority of the people I know are decedents of miners, loggers, farmers and fisherman. We’ve been known to drink a lot and sometimes get in fights. I’ve been to 2 family gatherings in the past year where punches were thrown. This wouldn’t be a story if it didn’t come on the heels of the NFLs issues or didn’t involve a famous person. We don’t ignore our underclass, we are them, or one generation removed from them.
Wait… this isn’t about Star Wars? I was thinking maybe they gave Han a wife in the new movie.
Okay, Yoda.
Kids, maybe.
Maybe two annoying fraternal twins and an evil younger brother.
I seldom do “this” posts, but “this”.
If you kicked out of town every cowhand that was tossed through a saloon window after flipping over the poker table and waving a broken whisky bottle at the floozies catcalling from the upper bannister, then there’d be no one left in town. Hope can just sleep it off, chug a Red Bull before the press conference, and all will be fine in the neighborhood.
Why do miners, loggers, farmers and fishermen keep all those dead people?
Good goalkeepers are always crazy, so the mantra goes.
