    Snipped to remove all context for the fun of it.

    OK now I've gone from "Awesome!" to "Stupid!" I guess those drills will help her in whatever sport she ends up in, but what is the dad's goal here? Does he really think she's going to play high school football?

    I don't see anything wrong with that . A lot of elite athletic programs offer training like that for younger swimmers.

    It's better than reading the stories about kids who don't exercise.

    I hate dads who are proud of their children.

    You don't have kids.

    I have taken over 5,000 pictures of my daughter. If she did this, I would make seven t-shirts with her picture on it so I could wear one every day.

    He's a proud father. Nothing wrong with that.

    That girl can scoot.

    We all know that the boys will catc up to her as they mature, etc., and her team sport of the future, with that speed, has to be soccer, softball or basketball as a point guard, but for now she was fun to watch.

    The White Mamba.

    Forget about Auburn or Alabama. The South Florida Youth Football League is about to offer her a three-year deal with an option for a fourth if league organizers can get enough financial commitments from the corner coke kingpins to make it a suitable financial arrangement for all parties.
