    For or again Women's football.
    I watched Pittsburgh Passion beat the DC Divas the other day, and wondered if the TV viewership would pick up enough to give the programmers an idea it'd bring in viewers. Has anyone else seen any of the Women's games? Think it'll catch on?

    [Full disclosure: I was on my high school's woefully misnamed 'Powderpuff' team... long ago... ]

    Sports... if the men played naked I would watch addictively. Well, they should wear pubic protection.

    Women playing football? Money from viewership would make it go. Women should play and be televised far more than they are. You have to consider why male football is so popular. Then manipulate advertising and public attitude. With the right promotion it could work well.

    Well, I know one way that women's football would get a lot of attention from men.

    My dear friend M, I would like to stay above the frey here so as not to even slightly offend anyone of the other passionate gender, we love them dearly; as this is the nature of an honorable guy.

    And being an "honorable" guy I am perplexed as to how I may express exactly how I feel and what I meant. If I let my deep feelings come forth at this time I will run the chance that someone may misunderstand those feelings and I certainly would not want to promote misunderstanding. Nor would I want to advance the "battle of the sexes" with what may be seen as a strictly male opinion.

    So, it is in the vain of good relations that I wish to promote only the aspect of good sportsmanship, too often in today's world this is not the top priority of men watching women's sports (here, here). I would like to lay down the gauntlet here and challenge all men to review their motives, look deeply into yourselves, we must elevate our thinking and see past the primal urges.

    We must wipe out the mental images of seeing a beautiful naked woman running down field carrying a football in her left arm. Yes... w... I... p... e it out... nope, can't even see... that lovely thing, floating with long hair flowing in the wind... bouncing, bouncing, bouncing... I mean bounding forward in a great athletic burst, excelling in her sport, among the best... I mean... yeah... ohhhhhh me. That is wonderful, yes simply wonderful, amazing how they float... defy gravity...

    NO, I mean what speed! What athleticism! What sportsmanship, What zest... what a pair... of... I mean look at those pecks, I mean she must have spent hours in the gym... she is a great athlete! She is... she is... wow, sorry M I must take a break here... I need to relax, I need to sit and admire the form of this fantastic moment...
