I bet the football players are hoping she makes it.

She is both a really good athlete and someone who understand PR, this past fall she had a fairly entertaining YouTube series where she challenged folks to different things, the most famous being challenging Tyrann Mathieu in a series of things. It was very light hearted but kind of showed her athleticism and her want for attention.
The phone references do because they alude to "old news". That comercial while pretty funny aludes to tv options.
I think it's more of a prep for a future career, really. She's a broadcast journalism major... she's been putting out YouTube videos and stuff for a while now. And really, they're pretty good.<div>
</div><div>She's also just a pretty driven person. She's a very good goalie; a lot of girls don't really like that position. It's pretty tough, especially when you get to those levels. She keeps a 4.0. She likes competing, even against the football players.</div><div>
</div><div>And, she's overcome a LOT. Father killed himself after her freshman year, had a terrible car accident that summer that almost killed her. Lost her spot junior year after an injury kinda bothered her (this is a person who was one of the top recruits in the country- LSU was one of the smaller schools that came after her, but she just really seemed to like it)... came back and won it this year. Overcame anorexia.</div><div>
</div><div>Lot more to her. I haven't known about her for long, but there's more to it than that. Does a lot with kids. Really loves being at LSU, loves promoting it, etc. Gives credit to her faith whenever she can. Just seems like an all-around good person. If she falls on her face, fine, but it just kind of seems like she has a new lease on life after being through all of that stuff (in a pretty short amount of time) and is trying to live it to the fullest.</div>

I'd take the 15 yard penalty if someone would knock her into the 4th row trying to block it.
on the other hand, if she'll kick against um, I'' run onto the field and block for her. with a bulldozer

yes, but the men and women each have their own basketball team. There is not a women's football team. I say if a woman is good enough to play on the team, let herplay.
Well, give her credit for trying to compete on a high level. I don't really think a guy would get much benefit from playing sports against women. Some may, I guess.
She's trying to reach a goal she set a year ago, and a pretty high one at that. I can't speak for her, but it doesn't seem like she's trying to make some statement... just seems like she enjoys competition and challenging herself. From what I've read, that's basically all she's done for the past four years. It's nothing out of character for her.
If she makes it, awesome. If she doesn't- ****, at least she tried something worthwhile.
