    Article from The Daily Wire
    By Matt Walsh

    "On Saturday, Sarah Fuller became the first woman to suit up and take the field for a Power-5 football team. The media has declared Fuller’s performance as Vanderbilt’s kicker a groundbreaking, glass ceiling shattering, historic moment. Many in media and the sports world echoed Hillary Clinton’s sentiment that Fuller proved “women and girls belong on every playing field—quite literally.” In a game of escalating hyperbole, ESPN eventually claimed victory by declaring that Fuller has achieved “immortality” through her play in Vanderbilt’s game against Missouri."
    ........
    "Actually, she kicked one time, it went 30 yards, Vanderbilt lost 41 to zero, and the head coach was fired after the game. This is reality, not a movie. And in real life, women embarrass themselves when they try to play against male athletes.
    But what we’ve witnessed after the kick heard round the world — a kick which actually went only 20 yards in the air and rolled another ten before the return team bailed her out by jumping on the ball before it went out of bounds and drew a penalty — has been the weirdest and most unnecessary coverup job in recent memory. The now-fired coach claimed that Fuller executed a masterful and pre-planned “squib kick.” The head coach of the team formerly known as the Redskins called it a perfect “mortar kick.” Elsewhere it has been called an onside kick. The SEC named Fuller one of their special teams players of the week for a “perfectly executed kick” that “sailed 30 yards.”"
    ..........
    "After the game, Fuller congratulated herself for proving that women can do anything. One is tempted to respond that women can do anything, apparently, except properly kick a football. One might also add that it’s a good thing the glass ceiling was only 30 yards away. Otherwise she never would have broken it. These would be harsh and mean spirited comments, however, and not the sort of thing I would ever say. Though I must admit, the temptation to ruthlessly mock Fuller becomes even stronger when you read about the half time speech she gave the team. From ABC:"

    Once again PC everywhere now days. She will probably be signing a million dollar contract with a ceral company and make the talk show circut. Lucky for the team that she didn't get hurt cause it would have cost em' alot of money.

    How do we know she doesn't secretly identify as a dude, or even a Peruvian alpaca for that matter? Sadly it's considered rude, sexist or even fascist to "gender" someone in these twisted times.

    Gone are the days of John Wayne...

    meh.. seen some women that would hold their own. Maybe not against a 300+lbs linebacker, but still would get the job done.

    Most simply do not have the body/muscle mass to competitively compete in some sports against men.

    I'm thinking this particular female simply choked like many athletes do from time to time and the coach tried to cover for his player.

    She's a soccer player with no football experience that was subbed in when the team's kicker couldn't play.

    I wonder how well anyone else would do in similar circumstances.

    well, just as many say a woman should NOT compete in men's sports, so i say too that transgender ( male to female) should NEVER compete in women's sports. (that's been a hot topic in the news lately)

    wanna be a male and change over to female..??

    you're still a male.....as no further "plumbing" will ever make one a REAL woman...
