2/24/2020 0 Comments A Woman's Love For Football Football began around the 1860s and even though the style of the game has changed one thing remains: all males. Females can play football if they want too but will coaches allow it. The most recent player who is being considered is Becca Longo. She has been noted to be the first woman to receive a scholarship to a collegiate school to play football. Recently, they stated that she may be the first woman to be in the NFL due to her insane athletic ability.All my life, I’ve always wanted to play but here’s the problem. I’m a female. As a female, it is expected for you to grow up being a lady who gets married and has children.
According to my family, you can’t do that if you play football. Why? Well they believe that my eggs will be damaged and there chances for grandkids will be less. How selfish can you get!? The world of sports has allowed women to play softball, run track, play soccer and even do basketball but when it comes to football there’s an argument. Many believe that women aren’t built for the sport. If a 160 pound woman runs into a 285 line man she will be crushed. Honestly, they may have a point but why can’t we just let women decide that for themselves. There are men who are way smaller than some women yet they still play. No one says anything to them. They might say they are going to get crushed but then they add that manly statement in there. “He is just being a man.” Give me a break. I’m just being a woman who wants to play football even if it means limping after the game. My life my decision.
