Female foot ball player

Female cornerback breaks Florida 6A football glass ceiling

She didn't make a tackle, or even break up a pass. Still, Northwestern (Fla.) High School's Jaline DeJesus made history in the Miami school's 38-12 victory over Hialeah Miami Lakes on Thursday night, becoming the first girl to play in a game for one of the top-ranked teams in Florida's highest division, 6A. In fact, Northwestern stacks up well with the best programs in the entire country, too; the Bulls are currently ranked No. 71 in the RivalsHigh 100.
Perhaps equally notable was the position in which DeJesus played: cornerback. Traditionally reserved for a team's best or quickest athletes (or both), the Miami Herald reported that DeJesus was an able substitute at defensive back for the final minute of Northwestern's victory after being promoted from the Northwestern junior varsity for the game. Considering the fact that DeJesus was filling in for Northwestern seniors Jermaine Reve and James Davis, that's saying something

 

doesnt say shit, IMO. like the article says, she didnt break up a pass or make a tackle. That was just some last minute experimentation, to shut people up. If female players start going in for hits on male RBs, and break up pass plays, THAT will say something.

just my .02s. Football players are 'generally' at the pinnacle of male athleticism based on position. On average, a peak-performance female just can't compete on the same level as a peak male. Look at the summer olympics, and sprint/powerlifting performances. Men just have more potential than women in that respect.

Get real, unless you want to start losing games lol.

 

I hate when femi-nazi's get their panties in a knot cause men are biologically stronger, and evolved that way. I think women should be allowed to play women's football with each other, but being physical with athletic men that can easily weigh 100 pounds more than you is fucking retarded. Clearly she isn't gonna do much damage.

Just like with MMA. I hate the people who are like "well most guy MMA fighter could beat the women ones". Well, DUH! They're fucking bigger and stronger! Unless they take a good hit in the face, they probably would win. That's why we have gender divisions in sports!

shit i thought you were going to have my head on a spit, given the fact that you're a rough-housing mama

 

I just rough house the bitches, but I will kick your ass if I need to

 

anytime.........anywhere.............:smt033

 

Does it matter? Do all cornerbacks tackle or break up a pass on every play? Perhaps she covered their WR so well, he couldn't stay open? The fact is, she ran with the big dogs, (albeit only for a minute as a sub) and came out the other side. Not just female kickers anymore.

 

gimmie a break. no coach in his right mind is going to risk having female players, in games and situations THAT COUNT.

you show me girls in situations, where coaches and teams have something on the line or to gain, and i'll be the first one to clap.

until then it's all a joke

 

Well thanks for "allowing women to play football. Good thing women have been playing it for years (and no I'm not talking about the Lingerie Bowl, either) (In fact, I have used one teams Logo for years as my avatar in another forum.)

When you say "being physical with athletic men that can easily weigh 100 pounds more than you is fucking retarded", I wonder if you understand what a running back does, or a WR? They often get physical - well actually they attempt to evade, tacklers often weighing 200 pounds more than them.

So in your eyes, is it the sex of the heavier opponent that makes her retarded to get physical with, or the fact that she would get physical with someone 100pds heavier at all?

 

Its a joke to you because it hasn't happened. But if a 300pd female tackler took your butt to the ground in a game of football, would you be laughing? Its not the sex, its the skill, the strength and the stamina, I don't give a shit if its got titties or a dick under the armour. We have some mad bull heffas out here who could play football.

 

Well, I think mainly the weight. But either way, a woman who weighs 100 pounds more than you is still probably weaker than a man who weighs 100 pounds more than you.

 

You do get that coaches don't put MEN in games THAT COUNT, as well.

 

stop fighting biology......





put away the penis envy, love

pound for pound, men are just more suited to play against other men, than women. I dont know any other way to put it...that's why the system is the way it is.

 

Ok, because you originally said a woman who gets physical with a MAN who weight 100 pds more is retarded....Not sure why you now have the 100pd heavier person switched to being a woman.

 

In football its difficult to explain it as well, because they have a really broad range of weights all going at it with each other. But, if I was going to be tackled by someone, I'd rather be tackled by the 200 lbs woman than the man thats 200 lbs, because I think he would just generate more force because he has more muscle in his body than women do (woman store more fat than men since we give birth) and because he is probably stronger he can probably move that weight faster.

 

i dont know any other way to put it, lol

the same system which keeps women separate from men in football, is the same one that exists in the olympics. That's why you won't see a woman running against Usain bolt, because she wouldnt be able to keep up with a man lagging 6th place in that same sprint.

But if you're one of those women that support testosterone therapy and shit, so they can get more in-line with men, more power to you.

 

So its penis envy now? Is this what you pull out as your argument?

Pound for pound, ANYBODY is suited to play against each other.

I understand the system, trust me, but it doesn't mean it's authentic just because 'that's the way it is'. I'm sure you'd agree with me on THAT point at least.

The bottom line is, if you can tackle, or run or throw or kick as WELL as the next person, or even better, then your represent. Your x or y chromosomes shouldn't negate that fact.

 

I agree. I mean, I know in MMA, they have weight classes for a reason. Weight makes SUCH A HUGE difference when it comes to power, and speed helps too. That's why you don't get guys who are 150 lbs competing with guys that are like 200lbs.

However, if you were to take the women's MMA champion and put her against the same weight male champion, he'd probably win, not necessarily because his technique is better, but because A) he is stronger and his blows are more damaging and B) he can probably outlast you, and that's the main reason people even lose, is when they get tired

 

LOL. You act like men don't partake in testosterone therapy and shit, so they can get more in-line with other men, too. Spare me.
