Banned!

Elijah Earnhardt has been banned from playing in his Dallas football league. The 6-1, 297-pound gridder had to face that reality recently, and probably is wondering how he’s going to explain it to his friends and neighbors.

The thing is, Elijah just wanted the experience of playing for a team before trying out at his school. See, Elija is only 12 years old. But he’s been deemed too big to play with others his own age. So says the Mesquite Pee Wee Football League.

Poor guy far exceeds the maximum weight limit of 135 pounds. That eliminates any chance of playing Pee Wee football. He’s just going to have to play for his school without getting any experience.

His mother, Cindy, isn’t happy. Not in the least. And hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. She’s going to protest this and take her case all the way to the top if need be. Well hell, I guess Mama knows best, right?

I kid you not.
