chicobangs you are right i guess i live in a dream world ..the only point i was making is that maybe it was played up to much,as it got worse for the usa the more they talked about it ..i guess that is there job to look for news, it was played up a lot..you are right, but the action that ryan took to throw solo out of the consolation game was another mistake

i watched this game from the very start and our goalie was not on the same page as solo..the reason being she has played in to few games. (not her fault)it is wrong for a teammate to say what solo said but you have to remember the age and what she went through to get where the team is today..now to follow up one mistake with another as ryan did is wrong ..instead of throwing her off the team he should have sat her on the bench and let her watch again as the other goalie started.. we live in a free country which means you have the right to express your opinion ,in other countries you would be thrown off the team..iam not saying solo was right but she has a right to her opinion.. what iam hoping is this incident doesnt damage two good goalies as well as the rest of the team. alot more could be said but what is the point ..iam glad iam not on the plane coming back from china it will be a long ride.. next year we have to go back to china again for the olympics and the memories will come flooding back, to bad this had to happen.. maybe if an issue wasnt made about it by the announcers and other people maybe it would not have been bad

Hope Solo Kicked Off Team for Consolation Game
iam a new soccer fan i follow english league for about a year it took me a long time to understand that you dont need to be scoring all the time to have a good game..as far as being rough if you have ever seen some of the tackles they make and the other physical play, i dont think anyone would want be in there. as far as this sport becoming a major draw over some of the other sports i dont think it will happen but they will draw a lot more than people think..what is going to happen is more and more international players are going to come here and with the influx of foreign people coming into the country soccer will become some what popular.. does anyone have a idea what happen to brazil? they didnt look like the same team, that move that marta made on the usa most men couldnt make it
