I remember seeing Luis Zendejas get flagged for unnecessary roughness back in '88 or so, after he pasted the kick returner. Now that's a kicker.

Girl Dies After Football Practice

Horrible and tragic -- a child's accidental death always is -- but I'm afraid that Taylor's death will become Exhibit A in the "girls shouldn't play football" camp. Was she doing something fundamentally unsafe? No, no more so than the thousands of other little boys (and girls) who don pads for PeeWee leagues around the country. Hopefully this sad freak accident won't be used to deter other girls who want to play. My deepest condolences to Taylor's parents, on the off-chance that they can bear to read what people are writing about her passing.
