join in. I use it as an opportunity for the boys to teach
them. Sometimes I adjust it where a girl catching a pass is
a first down or a TD is worth more. One year I had a big girl
named Susan that asked to play. She was a decent athlete but
never blew me away. SHE TOTALLY dominated the boys and the
game both on D and offense. I asked her about and she said she
played with her cousins and uncle. Great kid too. I went to
her wedding years later. She could pull flags about as good as
any boy I ever had.
btw that PE teacher sounds old, stupid and a little
and very insecure.
