Just days after charges of assault against her were dismissed (see post below), U.S. Women's National Team goalkeeper Hope Solo is back in the news, this time, as reported in today's New York Times, for allegedly "acting belligerent" when her husband was stopped during the wee hours and ultimately charged with drunk driving. U.S. Soccer, which took heat for allowing Solo to continue playing while the assault charges were pending, suspended her for 30 days.
U.S. Soccer issued a brief press release that said Solo would be "eligible for reinstatement" after 30 days, subject to review by U.S. Soccer and Coach Jill Ellis.
