Quote #10
"That's my girl!" the Colonel yelled from the other end of the yard. "You show me Jamie Dexter, and I'll show you a girl who can play some football!" (12.28)
Notice the subtle expectation here is that girls can't play football—otherwise, it wouldn't be such a big deal that Jamie could throw so well. Even though no one ever gives Jamie a list of things she can and can't do, we can tell what everyone thinks by their reactions to her, especially when she defies the norm.
