| Who
was your childhood idol? Why? |
My Mother and Father were my idols.
They taught me to be a good person and go after the things I want
in life. I aspire to be the same way in everything that I do. My
mother used to tell me “If you live on other people’s
wishes you’ll never be happy…” |
| Who
is your favorite NFL player? Why? |
My favorite NFL player
is Dick Butkus, because he played with intensity, emotion, and intimidation,
and his focus was to punish the ball carriers and not let the offense
gain an inch!!!! That is the type of intensity that I try to bring
to the field with me every time I put on my pads. |
| Which teammate embodies
the "Diva" spirit? |
All my teammates embody the Diva
Spirit. Without us there would be no spirit… |
What is your favorite sports memory?
|
When the DC Divas won the divisional
title, with a season record of 8-0 my 2004 rookie season. It was
a very memorable and emotional experience, one that I will never
forget. |
Five years from now women's tackle football....
|
Will be the pinnacle women’s
sports entertainment, it will be respected and players will be paid
to show off their spectacular talents to the media and fans on television.
Women will be able to spend their time training to meet the highest
level of performance to bring a new meaning to women’s sports. |
