    She *is* 6'0", so yeah, 5'9" looks short. To me he's tall.... to my 5'3" ;p~

    I have seen her put a soccer ball in the air for almost 80 yards. I'm willing to bet that she can put a football not too far behind that on kickoffs. FGs no way because the trajectory is different, but on kickoffs (which is where the discussion was to use her) where no one is trying to block the kick and you can have a low angle, yeah I bet she could put it into the endzone or pretty damn close.

    I just ran across an interesting article WAFB. I don't know if this has already been posted and I don't know anything about the source but here are a couple of interesting quotes from the article.

    Yea, I meant for a football player, my bad. I'm 5'9" also, so he is the same height as I am.

    Please nooooooo. Can't we have a sport that is exclusively men's. Geez, this kind of stuff gets on my nerves. If she gets tackled on a busted play (no pun intended) and gets seriously hurt, the risk becomes the game itself. I am 100% against this. Just my 2 cents.

    Mett only threw 56 yards? I thought he had a much bigger arm than that.
