Another reason to get rid of kickers in football. You've got these warriors going to war for 59 minutes, only to have the game decided by some pip squeak foreigner coming on the field saying "I'm going to keeck a touchdown."

"Let them start their own leagues."I agree. I would watch, provided it was done right.
Juggie girl football league and take the WNBA, please. Lets have bikini basketball, wet T shirt baseball league with body checks, like hockey, allowed on the base runner, I could go on and on. Probably be flamed like crazy too. :o

Last year New Mexico placekicker Katie Hnida was the first woman to play in a Division I NCAA football game. She trotted out for the extra point in the Las Vegas Bowl. Being that it's the Las Vegas Bowl, the odds of making an extra point are pretty high. Katie managed to kick the ball about a foot in the air and have it blocked by her center's ass. She promptly walked over to the sideline and sobbed. Then the grief counselors took over. I just thank God the ball didn't bounce back to her in a Garo Yepremian replay. Can you imagine?

Welcome to football little lady. I can't count how many times I was called names when I played sports. And that was by my best friends.

Football 101 dictates that coaches will sometimes berate a player for inexcusable performance and that hazing does occur between teammates.....all designed to build mental toughness and team camaraderie. With her obvious thin-skinned approach to these issues she failed miserably at both.

"I was treated much more like a piece of meat there," she said in a story in The Albuquerque Tribune on Friday.Leaving her sex aside for the moment, I'd like to tell Ms. Hnida that walk-on's are generally treated "like a piece of meat" in Division I-A. If they didn't think enough of your talents to offer you a scholarship, then you're just there to act like a living tackling dummy for the stud players. Period, end of sentence. Grow up.

"Girls should not play football with guys. Let them start their own leagues."They tried that once. Nobody watched. It was actually quite embarrassing to watch.

@#$%^&*, and furthermore, @&^%$#. If I've told you @#$%^&* once, I've told you a thousand f****** times. Don't move the f***** ball when the kicker is in the wind-up. If I hear any more of this @#$%^&* s***, you're going to get your a$$es kicked from here to @#$%^&*!

Bet you wouldn't have said that face-to-face with the Gators' kicker last year, or with a certain kicker named "Janikowski".

On a football team, players will tease and mock a teammate for any distinction or difference of any kind. If a player has a vagina, you can be damn sure someone's going to mention it.

Actually it was Gus who was the incredibly successful field goal kicking mule.

I don't think Janikowski was a walk on at Florida State. Didn't he earn a Betty Ford Clinic scholarship?

Well, lookie here, I spoke too soon. They actually do have a league right now. The WPFL features such teams as
The Amazons...

I guess she never saw North Dallas Forty, huh? Or Necessary Roughness. At least Kathy Ireland actually split the uprights. And when a defensive lineman roughed her up after a kick, she split HIS uprights.

Clearly this chick is just trying to set up her 15 minutes of profitable fame "in some other venue".

"I was treated much more like a piece of meat there," she said in a story in The Albuquerque Tribune on Friday. "Because I'm a pretty feminine gal, and they didn't respect that about me."--Katie Hnida
Hnida told the newspaper she was "called names that are not repeatable" many times during the 1999 season.
"I can be as feminine as I want, but that doesn't take away from me contributing on the field"
--Katie Hnida
"If he was not aware of anything else, then it's hard to imagine he was blind and deaf. I never got that impression, although he and I didn't have a very open, communicating relationship like (New Mexico coach Rocky Long) and I do"
--Katie Hnida (who apparently cannot construct a sentence)
"We'd be kicking, and he'd launch (footballs) at my head. I'd have them whizzing by. To this day, if a football flies by my head, sometimes I just (flinch)."
--Katie Hnida (awww, poor baby)
"Hnida on Friday declined to speak with The Associated Press about her time at Colorado and the allegations she raised."
"I have nothing to say."
--Katie Hnida
For someone with nothing to say, she sure flaps her lips a lot. Besides being stupid, she sounds like a lousy player who has just GOTTA blame the male establishment for her lack of talent (not smart enough to try to improve?).
