How does this have anything to do with women's rights?
If anything, it has to do with it in the sense of pushing it back.
The entire thing was a ridiculous publicity stunt, one that she happily took part in and one the league happily facilitated. All the while, it actually sets back any notion of a legitimate situation similar to this occuring. She got out there, performed a horrible first attempt and an even worse second attempt, all the while injuring herself as well. This was nothing but a step back for any female actually ever hoping to maybe even be looked at as an even SEMI-legitimate shot.
At least someone like Katie Hnida or Julie Harshbarger would have been COMPETENT and have a resume of actual experience kicking in a football environment, and even then likely would've been leaps and bounds behind the other college kickers there.
It was ridiculous.
