[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it charming or absurd that people are using FDR as an example of scholar athlete? Aren't there more recent examples from like last year's graduating class. I guess its both - charming and absurd. Kind of like this board.[/quote] Not absurd in context. A PP's point was how many president's played HS sports. Another poster said she did not believe that FDR could have played high school football. The photo shows that he did play football in high school. [b]But if you know some recent post- or even pre-Title IX female execs who played HS sports, by all means, chime in[/b].[/quote] A couple of interesting articles: http://www.forbes.com/sites/jennagoudreau/2011/10/12/secret-power-woman-play-team-sports-sarah-palin-meg-whitman-indra-nooyi/ http://athenaeum.libs.uga.edu/bitstream/handle/10724/11744/wentworth_craig_r_200912_edd.pdf?sequence=1[/quote]
