O.K...... This one is HARD to wrap my brain around.
There is an organization in the Atlanta area that sets up sports teams for home schooled kids and kids that go to very small private schools that, I guess are too small to field a team on their on. Sounds great on paper, right? Let the good spelling home school kids have some of the social interactions that "normal" ( it's in quotes... just like "women's health".....) kids have. Except, and this has to be the Devil at work, one of the football teams DARED to have an icky old girl come out for the team as a kicker , and she made it! She was the best kicker!
Jesus hates her! That's all I can figure out, cause the he-men-woman-haters did not let her play at all last year, but this year DID! Progress.. or Satanic hi jinks with the workings of High School Football in the state of Georgia. Here is the
entire story from the AJC. The Highlights:
"A female football kicker was let back on the field last weekend. But controversy keeps swirling around the decision to let her play football with home-schooled and private school boys.The Georgia Football League official who sidelined Spalding County kicker Kacy Stuart for most of the season based on her gender gave in and allowed her to play. But he doesn’t want to discuss it.
The first team Kacy faced relied on the Bible to express its beliefs about female football players in a pre-game statement, said New Creation athletic director Coach Ken Townley.“The East Atlanta Mustangs didn’t play us under protest but they were allowed to read a statement on their beliefs about female football players,” Townley said. “They used biblical verses from the book of Romans. I was very stunned by that.” Kacy's team went on to win that game, you know, after the Bible reading, 39-8 with the young Miss Kacy doing all the kicking. ( including the other teams butt)" The Crusaders were slated to face the Bartow Generals Saturday for the last game of the regular season but that has been scrapped." Can't let those poor home schooled bible boys be beat by a girl!
There is just so much wrong with this. Could it be illegal in a post title Nine world? What year is this, and what the hell is this American Taliban doing thriving in the land of strip malls and traffic jams that is Metro Atlanta. Are we not fighting a couple of wars over this sort of thing, as I type?? Now, you just KNOW that these parents will ALL be voting PROUDLY for McCain-Palin. It is fine to have a woman as VP or POTUS, but not a kicker on a children's football team? Maybe poor Kacy just is not as pretty as Governor Palin.. not BABE enough for the red meat eaters.
