Hope Solo: "We played a bunch of cowards. The better team did not win today."

The equipment manager at one of my universities said it best: "Soccer is the only game where, if somebody scores, it's a mistake."

That's what happens when you send a thug to represent your country. All too predictable.

The interesting thing about poor sportsmanship is that it's usually an attempt to make your opponent look bad, but inevitably it makes you look worse.

It would be difficult to look worse than I already do. So I engage in bad sportsmanship at every opportunity without fear of taking a hit. There are some upsides.

It is the job of the goal to not get her team snuffed in a shootout. What position does Hopeless play again?

Never seen these myself but I've heard the images are scarring.

I was watching drunk at a bar, but did she even attempt to block the game losing PK? Looked like she just stood there and took it.

She was ready for action--mount anything that moved. Those pics also showed she wanted from backdoor action real bad.

Two words: roast beef.

Low standards alert.

I'd say Hope's days on the national team are numbered. That number might be zero.

I'm so glad they lost. We won't have to hear any more nonsense from N B C about them.

Yes, she's been terrible in every one of her 101 shutouts in just over 200 starts...I know soccer is a low scoring sport, but use your f*ckin brain.

Ummm...you might want to look up the difference between 'past' and 'future'.

Scoreboard, baby!

If you think Solo's life has been a white trash trainwreck so far, just wait for the meltdown after her career is over and the money runs out.

The Swedes were playing like cowards. Just crowding the goal line and counter every now and then.

She reminds me of Tonya Harding.
