The Vagina Monologues

Is that T.J. Houshmandzadeh of the Cincinnati Bengals? Or perhaps it's Troy Polamalu of the Pittsburgh Steelers?

"One of these things is not like the other..."

Take a closer look, and you'll notice that the creature with the purple pants and the long hair has breasts. Yes; breasts. Those are indeed females.........playin' football........professionally.

Who'da thunk it?!?!?!

Yes, in the year 2000,
The Independent Women's Football League (IWFL), a 501(c)(6) non-profit corporation was formed in the Great State of Texas (Go Cowboys). The IWFL is "a full tackle women's football league focused on creating a positive, safe and fun environment for the women who play the game and fans that come out to watch them."

When I was a young child, a diehard Cowboys fan and a tomboy, I had a deep desire to play professional football so that I could contribute to my team's success. Then I grew up.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for that Title IX and women can do what men can do feminist tip, but let's be real...there are only 2 things that turn me on more than watchin a good ass game of football (played by MEN).

However, the rules are a bit different, and they get paid a hellofa lot less:
16 cash prizes totaling $13,500 are available for things like number of TDs, rec's, rushing, sacks allowed, and QB accuracy for offense and INTs, sacks, and tackles for defense. Also, special teams can get money for extra point and FG accuracy. This evens out to about....$1000 a pop...which is wiggity whack.

If it's 2008 and women are allowed to play football professionally, who knows where we'll be in 2025....Monica Lewinsky might be president! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
