Hope Solo So Close, But No Go

Long ago (2007!) we wrote about Hope Solo, the goalie on the US soccer team. We said then that she was a loudmouth egoist, and she was.

Fast forward to 2011. We do not know whether she is still the loudmouth she was back then, because we made a point of not really listening to interviews. We just watched the Women's World Cup soccer tournament and enjoyed it. The US couldn't pull it off, losing on penalty kicks. But it was not Hope Solo's fault.

She's taking advantage of her current visibility and making the talk show rounds. That's fine. Here she is on the red carpet at some Entourage event. Brows are still in force.
