    I think the stats at the beginning are as bogus as any that a Pop Warner coach or parent would come up with. But the big plays she makes aren't bogus.

    Wonder when she'll commit to Alabama?

    To answer the question in the cutline as to why they run so much: They can't throw.

    Pete Carroll just offered her a roster spot with the Seahawks.

    I love all the jackass commenters on that story acting like midget football is an idea created by the devil.

    Half of those commenters played football growing up ... without helmets. The male half. Plus one female tailback.

    What's really impressive is her ability to cut on a dime and avoid tackles. Some of those teams she played against did a terrible job defending the edge.

    I watched 20 seconds of that. It was one of the saddest things I have seen in a while. Whoever made that video or feels the need to promote the prowess of an 8-year-old in a kiddie sports league really needs to get a life.

    All I'm seeing is a bunch of kids who can't tackle.

    OK, cool a girl is dominating in a boys league, but it's a league of eight year olds. Whoopdeedoo. This slow clap is for you.

    I can't wait for the video of the 8-year-old boy who dominates the girls at softball.
