Senior says parents used to beat her with a ruler, sometimes gave her a full seven inches

Wildcat: My name's Nathan.

Meacham: I'm Heather.

Wildcat: And you're On the Spot. So you're playing football with the guys. There's only two girls against·? There's two girls on each team right?

Meacham: No, no. It's two girls, Îcause they figured that two girls were worth one guy, so we kind of·

Wildcat: Does that make you feel bad?

Meacham: Only slightly. I understand why they did it. I mean, how else are we supposed to play with an odd number?

Wildcat: So, is your team winning?

Meacham: No. We're losing.

Wildcat: I have a secret. My team always loses.

Meacham: Yeah?

Wildcat: Yeah.

Meacham: So do you throw them off and chase after them and win or something? Or just constantly lose no matter what?

Wildcat: I'm just a loser. Are these guys tackling you at all?

Meacham: No. It's just two-hand.

Wildcat: Oh. Two-hand. Do you consider yourself a good runner?

Meacham: No. I wouldn't say that. You keep playing until everybody says they're ready to quit, so · whether you're tired or not, you just keep going.

Wildcat: Speaking of quitting. That leads me to my next question. Spanking.

Meacham: Spanking?

Wildcat: Have you ever been spanked before? Like your parents? My mom used to beat meö

Meacham: With a ruler! With a ruler! We were spanked with a ruler.

Wildcat: She used to break spoons on me. And combs and brushes.

Meacham: We were spanked with rulers when we were little. No belts, no nothing like that. Always just rulers.

Wildcat: Wow. How many inches would hit you?

Meacham: It depended on how mad they were.

Wildcat: If they were really mad, you got a full, nice, seven inches?

Meacham: Yes, usually like straight across the ass. They just let you have it.
