This is a woman with severe mental issues. She was charged with assault up around Seattle after smacking some family members around during an argument, but she seemed to have found a way to skate out of that. Then the former goalie for the Seattle women's soccer team went off to the Olympics and got in trouble again:
Hope Solo reacted the way any elite athlete would to news she had been suspended for six months and her contract terminated by the U.S. Soccer Federation in the wake of calling the Swedish team “a bunch of cowards” after the U.S. women’s national team was eliminated from the Rio Olympics.
She cursed. She hugged her husband. She broke down.
“Six-month suspension. No pay. Terminated contract. Effective immediately,” Solo said in a hotel conference room as she hugged her husband, former NFL player Jerramy Stevens. “Terminated contract! Not just a suspension!”
Well, she may have been sort of talented as a soccer goalie, but she clearly is unstable. It's surprising that she didn't try to beat up her husband.
I don't follow sports, but I've read enough about her to know that I don't want to see her name again. Maybe she can be retrained. I understand that Goodwill is looking for new employees.
