Welcome!

I accidentally turned on my local news today and amongst the stories of violence and political unrest I learned something that I found truly disturbing: there is only 1 team in the NFL with an "official" fan club for women. Um, what?! To make matters worse, this team (one of my two local teams) is extremely young and utterly lacking in the rich history and family tradition that comes with an established team whose fan base was formed over 85 years ago. A team such as the New York Giants. My team. A team I was born to root and scream for. A team I was born to love and worship whether they perform poorly (why hello 2009 season) or leave dozens of crying man-babies in their wake on the way to the big show (I'm looking at you, Super Bowl XLII). This is the kind of deep-rooted fanaticism that is meant to be passed down from generation to generation (luckily I married a fellow G-men fan so this won't be a problem for me).

I digress, my bad. My point is how can a brand spankin' new team have a fan site for the ladies and Blue does not? Blasphemy I say. With this little blog I hope to solve that problem by creating a site for all the female fans of the New York Giants to come together and talk about the greatest football team in this here little country called the U.S. of A. I appreciate your patience as I get this beast up and running. In the meantime feel free to chat amongst yourselves in the comments section or if you have any content suggestions send those along as well (giantsladies at gmail dot com).

Happy Reading and most importantly, GO BLUE!!!!

Oh and btw: I hate pink jerseys. A lot. If you wear one with an "NY" on it you should be ashamed of yourself and have clearly stumbled upon the wrong blog. I'm sure there's a Jersey Shore or Real Housewives of Who-Gives-a-Crap fan blog with your name written all over it. I bid you adieu. However if you're ready to realize the error of your ways and burn that pink atrocity and replace it with one of blue, red, or white, by all means pull up a chair and join in. No one's perfect.
