Hope Solo isn't one to keep her opinions to herself, so when Brandi Chastain engaged in some light criticism of U.S. defenders during Team USA's win over Colombia, Solo took to Twitter to take Chastain to task. Solo tweeted that it was "Its 2 bad we cant have commentators who better represents the team&knows more about the game," along with other criticisms of Chastain's knowledge of the modern game. Team USA says Solo won't be punished, but is it handling this the right way?

Gold-medal bound?
