Was it right to dismiss Hope Solo from the team?

NO. it wasn't. If she was a lightning rod, well, then those women have much bigger problems. Last time i checked, you "dance with the gal that brung ya" or "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". The coach OVER COACHED the team. Read the stories. Lack luster play. They play for 3rd place and they play hard? Lordy. what a crock. Hope should have played. the dismissal is just sore gs for being called out in public.
