Women can try out for the NFL too.

I thought you were male. However, I agree with you on women in combat. (It should never happen). What is sad is that the wimps in society will ruin football. My son got a scholarship and the sport means a lot to me. Soccer has more injuries anyway, which means they will outlaw everything. I wish we could just kill off the F’in liberals before they give birth to more ....

President Barack Obama is a big football fan with two daughters, but if he had a son, he says he'd "have to think long and hard" before letting him play...

Because under current rules, it's not allowed to repeatedly slam your opponent's head into the ground.
