“10. Trip to Starbucks

– Hope Solo’s Top-10 Pastimes in China — Where have these articles been all this time?! I swear I looked for stuff a few months ago and they weren’t up. Oh, and it looks like she won that final battle with Cat. Irrational, I know, but even reading her name makes me fume a bit....

“How do you cope with those smelly gloves?

– Old Hope Solo QA (pre-2007). I feel like I read this back in the day because the glove story is familiar to me. Also, Adrian sighting. I have one of them too that goes way back. I am beginning to realize why everyone I know is so confused about us.

WPS Terminates magicJack Franchise →
thrace-:
SAN FRANCISCO, CA (October 27, 2011) – After careful consideration, the Board of Governors of Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS) voted on Tuesday to terminate the Boca Raton based magicJack franchise.
HOLY SHIT.
WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO, BORISLOW.
Hate to say it, but it was about time. The player abuse was killing me not to mention Borislow’s business model of buying the...

“My ultimate goal is to win a World Cup, to win an Olympics, but also to...”
– Cute, pre-2007 disaster article about Hope and her unlikely rise to the top of the world. Sad to know what was going to happen shortly after this was written, but Hope came back even stronger so haters to the left and all that.
Trying to play like Hope Solo

Yahoo’s view on Week 5
Less than Loved
Len started the cheap shots when Maksim and Hope came out for the first dance. He accused Hope of having no connection to the dance and being too loose limbed. Hope fought back tears through her gorgeous smile, but it was clear that Len had hurt her…
Oh, Hope. Handed the “not invested” storyline they proceed to...
fuckyeahofficerko:
DWTS, you’re making a HUGE mistake. If Hope gets eliminated tonight, you’re gonna be losing a hell of a lot of viewers, I can tell you that right now. I will also vow to never watch this show EVER again…who’s with me?
I’ve never liked this show in the first place.
Since I’m not a supporter of hazing I think I am done either way. And when I don’t like...
VOTE FOR HOPE AND MAKSIM.

theaudiopool:
Click HERE to listen (because for whatever reason I can’t seem to upload the audio, so you’ll just be redirected to the ESPNDallas website). She comes on around the 19min mark.
The best part of this interview is when Hope was asked who her favorite goalkeepers were, or something to that effect, and she talks a while about who she doesn’t like and why or such and such does...

I hope this works.
edit: Someone said this worked for them. Yay! It was worth all that uploading time.
Some people were wanting the 2008 USA vs Brazil game. It is huge and zipped up into 7 parts that will need something like winRAR to reconstitute. I tested it and it comes back together fine. Whoever gets it first let me know if it works or not from your end. Get to it while it is up. No idea how long the files...

Good Day LA
Someone better have recorded Good Day LA because watching Hope have a blushing meltdown as they forced her to rewatch her cha-cha for the first time was probably the best thing ever in the history of ever. It would be a crime for that to have gone uncapped. Also Coffee Bean vs Dunkin’ Donuts? It’s like Mr and Mrs Bickerton.

– Interesting NYTimes blog on popularity of athletes. They rank Hope only second to Beckham in US awareness levels of soccer players beating out even Donovan and Ronaldo. Abby Wambach was just trailing Ronaldo. Both Hope and Abby rank higher than their male counterparts in the “down to...

Hope Solo on DWTS
randoisme:
Len Goodman is an a**. I mean really, Hope practices dancing probably every free second she has of which there are very few. She commits to everything she does. Sorry she has actual responsibilities outside of trying to dance on a reality tv show. Seriously dude, open your eyes and take a look at what she’s doing with her life.
This. Hope’s main crime is caring too much...
