Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Ok, so I go to a High School Football meeting today for upcoming freshman. Then one girl announced that she was going to play football for us next year. When I heard that, I got really pissed off. Its not that I am sexist, cause I love the ladies, but I think that having a girl on the team would take away the "Brotherhood" of playing high school football.
Well, I have no daughters and would consider myself a chauvenist, hence I will avoid the imminent insertion of the foot...
I've walked these streets, a loaded six-string on my back, I play for keeps 'cause I might not make it back, I've been everywhere still I'm standin' tall, I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all!!:salute!:
we had a girl play football for our team last year as a kicker, but she quit 1/4 of the way through the season, ill bet the same happens to your lady player

Yeah, I hope so. But she said that she was probably gonna play line. I just laughed and was thinking about how much pain she will go through.
But did having a girl play on your team ruin the "Brotherhood" of the team?

You know that if you are supportive towards her, you have a better chance at that "brotherhood" that you seek....just a suggestion..

I dont know if I am the only one on my team that has a problem with it. But I guess I am just making a bigger deal out of it than I should be. But I will be supportive towards her, I will be supportive towards all of my football teamates.I will talk to my friends about it and see what they think.
BVP, football is the greatest team sport in the history of mankind, IMO..why wouldn't you want to share that with anyone who wants to play?

Its not that I dont want to share it, its just that sometimes I use football as my escape from girls, and the world around me. And with a girl on my team, it wouldnt be the escape that I look for.

Worry about your football assignment and share the glory with her as a teammate..

What are your guy's opinion's about this?
I played sports, and I am not sure what you mean by 'brotherhood.' On any team, there were people I liked and disliked, but as long as everyone tried their hardest and played to win, I had no beef with them. I wouldn;t have said any o fthem were clsoe friends. Its not a requirement of being a teammate.
The only questions that matter:
1) Can she do the job required of her?
2) Can she do it without special considerations?
3) Does she feel that her gender isn't an issue and she will not use it as an excuse if she fails?
If the answer to those questions are all yes, and the coaches feel she can help you win ball games, then you should welcome her. You do play to win, right? (insert Herm edwards.....hahaha)
We had a girl on our soccer team, and she started. Sharp shooter, excellent footwork, vicious slide tackler. As a teamamte, I would have beat the crap out of any opposing guy who gave her crap for being a girl or tried to touch something he wasn't supposoed to if I knew she would be pissed at me for doing so. She could handle herself, thank you very much. That just meant she would score two goals on your ass instead of one. Some guys were pissed that a girl started over them, but you know what, on most days, she was our second best player, and easily one of the best players on either team. And she helped us win games. So it was fine by me if someone CLEARLY better than me started. Is that what you are worried about, that a girl might be better than you at something? Welcome to the adult world. There are women who are better at lots of things than I am. Might as well learn about it now
Given the violent nature of the high school game, I sincerely doubt that this girl is going be able to contribute at a high level, outside of punter or kicker or something like that. Maybe reciever...depends where her skills lie.
They should accomodate the gals by providing *at least* a recreation girls league.
On the flip side, I would definitely laugh my a$$ off, watching her put a few guys on their kiester.

What's so funny is seeing all this mess that the Donks and the fans have placed on themselves. Can you say Raiders.
