Whatever, Purdue Guy

ESPN asked a bunch of football players for their thoughts on women playing college football. I have to say, most of them really impressed me! A couple (like the Baylor guy) mentioned that they would have difficulty hitting a girl, but I think after she tackled them a few times she’d get over *that*. More problematic is the Purdue asshole, who seems to think that it’s impossible for a woman to compete with a man physically. He basically says that sports are split into genders for a reason, and that if there were only one football (basketball, baseball, etc.) team then women would never get to compete. WHATEVER! The teams might not be 50-50, but I think it’s ridiculous to think that no woman could possibly make the cut in a male environment. Was I the ONLY one who sat through “G.I. Jane”??
