I get the need to stay on top of doping issues, but I think it is RIDICULOUS for her to be given even a warning when she was proven to be taking the medication for legitimate medical reasons, under the care of a qualified physician.
I'm glad she took responsibility and immediate action. The banned substance list is ridiculously long, so I'm not surprised at such a common substance in everyday medication.
The fact that you would seriously claim that she is doping is crazy. I do believe it was an honest mistake, and while you certainly do not have to agree with that, I do not think it is right for you to make any stupid accusations. Also, here's some stats - Abby Wambach (very talented, and popular forward for USWNT) is 32, Shannon Boxx is 35, and Christie Rampone (the CAPTAIN of the USWNT) is 37...so it is very likely that Hope Solo, at 30, can still be an amazing keeper and a very clean player.
