Jane's Football Tryout by M.C. Jane tries out for the boy's football team. No doubt about it,Jane was a big girl.At six feet tall weighing in at 210 pounds she was a strong,confident 17 year-old girl.She wasn't always that way though.When Jane was growing up she was very fat and very unsure of herself.A one point she weighed over 260 pounds.She had no friends except Mike,her next door neighbor.He was the same age as she and always treated her with kindness and respect.She,in turn,liked him a lot but that wasn't enough to give her the confidence she needed.The change began after she had a conversation with a women doctor named Ruth."Jane,you're always going to be large so you may as well accept it.The only thing I can recommend to you is to start working out with weights.That will give you the strength and confidence you need".Jane went home and thought about what Ruth said.The next day she began to work out. She took to weights like a fish to water.Hour after hour,day after day,week after week. Three-four-five hours a day.She watched, amazed, as she transformed herself into a strong confident woman.Now,she wanted to see just what her body was capable of. And what better way to test it out than football-the most macho sport of all.A few years ago this would not have been allowed;a girl trying out for the football team.But now,with equal rights,the coach had to at least give Jane a chance;but he didn't have to like it. Mike warned her about the coach."He's a real macho man,Jane.He'll make it as hard for you as he can.Are you sure you want to go through with this;I'm worried about you". Mike had tried out for the football team the year before but-truth be told-he wasn't very good.He endured a lot of teasing from the coach and other players before he was cut. It hurt Jane a lot to watch this but she wasn't able to do anything about it...........then. "You're so sweet "Jane told him,"but please don't worry about me honey.I'm a big girl, I can take care of myself ".She kissed him on the cheek and then went over to where the football team was holding it's practice. Jane walked up to the coach and said in a voice loud enough for the whole team to hear. "Hello coach,My name is Jane and I'm trying out for your team.Now I know that neither you or any of your boys want me on the team so I'll make a deal with you.You put your best players on the field and kick the ball to me.If I can't score a touchdown on my first try I'll drop out.Do we have a deal?"The coach couldn't believe his ears.This girl was going to try to run through his entire team by herself-and if she failed,she was going to quit.It was too good to be true."I accept "he said,confident he had nothing to lose.Though large by female standards,Jane was actually one of the smallest players there.The football team averaged over 220 pounds with some the large linemen around 250. Big Ed, the biggest, strongest boy in school,weighed 270.Jane,because she was new,didn't even have a helmut and pads that was standard equipment on a football team.She would have to play in the gym shorts and T-shirt that she was wearing;she didn't seem to mind though.As Mike nervously watched from the spectator stands above the field,a surreal sceen was unfolding below.Eleven strong, tough football players were lining up against one lone girl; a mismatch if ever there was one. The coach blew his whistle and the ball was kicked.Jane caught the ball on the ten-yard line. She looked up at Mike,winked,and then started running towards the boys who were quickly converging on her.Jane running was sheer poetry in motion.Her powerful legs gracefully propelling her magnificant body forward.Her long,beautiful blond hair bouncing up and down and from side to side behind her;she was a sight to behold."WHAM"the sound reverbrated throughout the field as Jane made contact with her first would-be tackler....and flattened him. "CRASH,POW,CRUNCH"three more football players bit the dust.She had a serene smile on her face and seemed to be enjoying herself."WHACK"down went a 250 pound lineman.Jane was now in the clear-on her way to a sure touchdown.But as she approached the goal line, she thought to herself "this is too much fun,I don't want to stop now".She stopped a few feet short of the goal,turned around and began to run in the opposit direction."Come on boys"she teased"try to stop me.Is one little girl too much for you big,tough guys-tee hee hee"."SMASH, SLAM,POW "three more football players went down-can't anybody stop her.Looming up ahead of her was Big Ed.He had been on the opposit side of the field the first time that Jane ran by and couldn't move over in time.But now he was ready to meet her head-on.Jane made no attempt to avoid him.Instead she just kept running straight towards him."CRASH"the sound was heard all over the stadium.BIG Ed collapsed like a house of cards."The bigger they are, the harder they fall"Jane laughed.After flattening Ed,the remaining players lost their nerve and ran off the field."Aw come on boys,are you all afraid of little old me"Jane giggled.She was standing in the middle of the field,one hand on her hip the other holding the football."Hey coach"she yelled."Why don't you send all the rest of your players out ;I'm getting lonely here by myself-tee hee".Infuriated,the coach ordered the rest of his team out onto the field with orders to"get her ".Twenty strong,angry boys charged towards her.Jane comely turned anound and blew Mike a kiss.She then started running at the oncomming hoard."POW,SMASH, CRUNCH,WHAM,SPLAT".Boys were flying all over the place.The entire football team was being destroyed....by a single girl."Tee hee hee,this is so much fun "Jane giggled as she flattened boy after boy.A minute later it was all over.Jane stood in the middle of the field as before;not a mark or scratch on her.She walked over to the coach who stood in shock at what he'd just witnessed."Here,you can have this back"Jane said as she handed the football to him."I've reconsidered and decided I really don't want to be on your football team after all. You guys are just too rough for me,tee hee hee". As Jane turned to leave,Mike came running up to her.They embraced.Honey,you were awesome, absolutely incredible.You made it look so easy ".Jane kissed him."Thank you sweetie pie,it really was as easy as it looked.I'm just disappointed they couldn't have lasted longer;I was having such a good time out there.How does my hair look?" "Beautiful,as always"Mike replied. Jane gently took his hand and began to lead him out of the stadium."Let's go home,Mike. My parents are away for the whole week.........maybe we could think of something to do".
