Not a (Blog or Goal) Post for the Squeamish

If you don't mind a good scar story, read on. If you're a bit squeamish when it comes to ripped flesh, perhaps it's best to skip this one. You see, last time U.S. goalkeeper Hope Solo was in Mexico, she was playing with the U.S. Under-21 National Team, and had a little accident involving a free-kick, a power dive, a goalpost and a hook. Perhaps the worst part about this story is that the ball went in and the USA lost 1-0, but for more (graphic) details, we'll let Hope tell the story.

    After reading this post a few times and sending the sweet video all around I finally got the sweet 'post' pun. Next time you won't slip those by me.
