“This is something you can’t take away, ever, and it’s me doing it. My first game, I took down a 6-foot quarterback.” ~ Mina Johnson, 5-foot-2 left guard, linebacker, and nose tackle powerhouse What is Mina Johnson’s reward for amassing four sacks in a recent football game? Why sitting out her next game against Northeast because they threatened to forfeit the game playing against a girl, of course.  Sexism, alive and well in high school sports, too! Awesome to be living in the year 2011, isn’t it?
