So if "girls" can make an NCAA team, what business does anyone have suggesting this young lady should be denied the chance to try?

Have you seen the Madden 2004 commercial when Ray Lewis says, "Kickers will talk when spoken to."
I would not call a kicker a "real" football player. Especially considering the people that play football dismiss them on a regular basis. Ever heard of Mike Vanderjact (sp?) from the Colts. I think Payton Manning's words about him this past spring sums up the league's feelings on kickers.
