Abby Wambach on Hope Solo (9/15/16)

[@RightCenterBack321]

Abby hit the nail on the head - the suspension was not about the "cowards" comment alone. It was about everything up until that point. U.S. Soccer basically said, "We're not protecting you anymore."

She’s brash, unapologetic “in certain ways” and in your face. That doesn’t mean she’s a bad person. Hopefully in ten years her legacy is that of being a great goalie and not a dumb comment.

@@rainc5879 well I think even at age 37 hope had a ton of experience and character on goal, and her shape even if slower was way better than most goalies. She knew how to stay focused and in top form, she always made sure she was not benched by staying on het toes and mastering her craft. I am sure if benched unfairly like in 2007 we would definitely hear from her. She would let her opinion known and would be difficult to deal with in that scennario. If benched for fair reasons, we would ha e to see, because she never let her guard down or left doubt in any coaches mind that she was as prepared and sharp as she can be. I am sure she welcomes those challenges and would be working even harder to get her spot back as a competitor she is, in my opinion. Since she was let go when she was still in great shape (mistakes happen in goal to the best of us) a few mistakes (very few on goal - excusses) plus her comments and drama off the field but mainly her suing her employer, in this case the US Soccer federation made her a target.

It is a team sport. There are 11 players on the field. It is never just one person. They lose together and they win together. And yes while Naeher has to do her job in goal the defenders midfielders and forwards has do their job too. A goalkeeper is not going to be able to save every shot taken at them. Hope couldn’t save all the shots at the 2011 World Cup final when it went to PKs, but her teammates didn’t covert all their shots either. Again 2016 Olympics vs Sweden Quarterfinals. It went to PKs. Hope wasn’t able to save all of the PKs but not all of her teammates converted their PKs either. Hopefully this helps you understand that this is a team sport and it’s never down to one player.

[@playlistjohnnybitter]

Abby's the man

[@calvinfennie3138]

I was hoping to find some hypocrisy

[@madturtle8826]

US womens soccer team- “ We want equal pay” Basic math- “ Maybe I can help”

[@markwheeler4245]

Being as much money as the men’s game and no problem should be the answer to them. Equal pay! The money is RIDICULOUS in football anyway they are all WAY OVERPAID

[@AZ-kr6ff]

Best team in the world?!! Haha

[@This_Old_Man_68]

Hope Solo is arguably the best women's soccer player of all time. As an added bonus Hope has a really nice rear end.

[@billiamc1969]

Hope is a drunken jackass who drives drunk with her infants in the car...what is wrong with you dude???

[@frisk151]

Did you and Hope fight? "I mean physical".. That was actually a really funny question... Because, Hope would obviously treat her like a rag doll.... I actually find it offensive that this bench warmer (historically speaking) has the labia to talk smack at all.. Did anyone actually test some of these "women" for male dna? Hormone levels?

[@margaretcronin4073]

This guy Abby Wambach was a great player, he was awesome

[@kennedyk.2045]

bro it’s a girl. it’s obviously a girl. honestly you saying that is beyond offensive.

[@kennedyk.2045]

Michael Robertson kennedy ( my name) is OBVIOUSLY a girl name and you calling me a dude is honestly offensive

[@kennedyk.2045]

Michael Robertson someone’s in a mood lol

[@kennedyk.2045]

Michael Robertson ^it kinda seems like your bit of a hypocrite*

[@kennedyk.2045]

Michael Robertson honestly i’m joking around, r u?

[@ly9386]

Hope was a good gk but she was a sore loser and wasn’t professional and was rude and kinda still is

[@chrishof]

they are both men solo and wombach

[@chrisjensen9051]

Maybe they can make bronze knee pads out of their medals. I'm glad they lost.

[@LiterallyGod]

I thought it was meghan rapinHOE for a second. Abby is kewl

[@samuela9245]

Anytime there is problems with teammates....it all comes down to EGO shameful

[@pepepez6335]

nobody on the team liked Hope. the only one who could tolerate her was Lloyd.

[@MrMuaythai84]

kind of like this jackass at my job no one likes him but he still there and never gets fired because he good with computers but everyone cant stand him and manager refuse to fire him

[@andriusval2011]

Phon Xieng do you know what they talk about you behind your back?

[@caitlinschilbe7753]

That's my idol you're talking about. And for the record a soccer team is a family the WNT is the greatest family. You have no idea who likes her and who doesn't but coming from a soccer player and a goalkeeper's perspective, they probably all liked her in different ways.

[@marcelachirinos639]

Were you in the team to speak for them? That's your opinion. It does not make it true because you believe it and say so.

[@scottcollier5041]

Watching Hope on the BBC coverage of the world cup 2019. Personally I think she is full of herself,and patronising. Does strike me that she perhaps wasn't a team player??

[@marioalas8541]

They both love to drink lot dui is an award they both got!!! Abby made fun of men soccer team but after she got arrested for drinking like solo the men soccer team made fun of her!!! Tomorrow USA is going to lose against Sweden like in rio !!!

[@blipsmann1985]

Big personalities and I’ve never heard of neither one of them !!!!

[@dethray1000]

your very low IQ that is why

[@guittadabe5214]

Rapinoe is also getting on in terms of years. Injuries are usually the first sign. 3 years from now (in the World Cup), she will definitely be way past her prime, especially with the much younger and healthier, and speedier talent that is coming up the ranks for US Soccer. So why is she still on the team, pissing off fans and distracting the team?

[@ashesashes4246]

Thats why she is doing all this kneeling thing to get attention cuz she knows she is reaching the end n wont make it to the next wwc in 2019.

[@mattcrouch9348]

Ya both burnt. Pino is as good this year as she has ever been

[@adoniswarchild144]

Rapinoe can still score and dominate the pitch. *THAT'S* why she's still in the game

[@TomAndJerry87]

I just need to you reread this comment and know how wrong you were. She's playing some of the best soccer of her career

[@mtadams2009]

You may be right but as of 2018 she is playing great, her and Alex are playing great together. The younger players are also looking good. Now if we had a goalie.

[@sergeantmasson3669]

Abby's personal history is not all rose covered and pretty either. Alcohol and drugs abuse for much of her career.

[@DANIEL21310]

*My $ is on Abby💪, I bet she would have knocked 👊 some sense into Hope's brain🤔*

[@dethray1000]

no way--nobody would confront Solo--did you see the players that ran into her,they did not get up--not once did any player ever confront Solo,they all knew she would kick their ass and she can outdrink anybody including Mr solo her husband

[@WestCoastAthletic]

Telling the truth if it is not politically correct is off limits, however stomping on the flag and badmouthing your country which have you the ipportu city to make millions and all this on the international stage somehow is acceptable.

[@jeffc3381]

shocker shocker a group of woman not getting alongb

[@slowmotionradio73]

Studs nvr get along

[@10Ljungberg]

a life time achievement award is someting else abby looks drunk..

[@josephbuehl9429]

Hello you're not the best team in the world.

[@iii-ei5cv]

"Hope and I clashed a lot... there were a lot of reasons for that... we had this kinda love/hate relationship..." Typical butch hangups

[@marcelachirinos639]

You should be one to know ;)

[@rainc5879]

I was unaware of typical Butch hang ups ?

[@rainc5879]

Who came up with those ? Then I would like you to explain what a BUTCH IS ?

[@rainc5879]

It always amazes me the NAMES people place on other Humans they don’t even know Like your picture is a body with a Ball for a head … does that mean you Cary your BALLS up there ? And they are all tied up ? So your worried about someone being a Butch ?

[@rainc5879]

Other words Why are you concerned about Anyone’s general choice of sexual preference it’s not bothering your Round little head on your shoulders so go home and ask your Wife to be nice & give you attention then you won’t have to get all upset over Butches & their Hangups.

[@bostoncurtis9559]

Not sure why Johnny Wambach gets so much shit!

[@factorial6909]

Its chicks who cares

[@joshl1387]

Hope Solo is a spoiled brat!

[@mantis10_surf85]

Lock Hope Up, Lock Hope Up!!!

[@markogarcia2518]

Did Justin Bieber finally change her name and get a sex change?

[@conniecheng519]

I don’t like hope solo , she is so rude. Can’t believe that she was such disrespectful to her former coach.
