Strange. Aboutwomen.com says that women make up 40% of NFL fans currently. I bet they also say that god is a female.

Then the NFL comes out with a new marketing strategy to try and attract more women to the game.

Look out boys!! THE NFL WANTS AN ALL WOMEN FAN BASE....LOL!!

More b.s. politically correct filler articles that have no backbone in my view.

I'm all in favor of the NFL and whoever wants to be a fan is fine with me. Unfortunately I'm a realist.

I haven't seen you post any sources to the contrary, so until you can back up your misguided, machismo views I'll just brush off your ignorance and hope that someday you can see just how wrong you are.

I would love for several members on here to square off against my wife regarding knowledge of football, college especially but she can hang with NFL discussions with little difficulty.

Seriously, I had almost posted a response to the same effect. My wife came late to the game but, now, screams hysterically at every good or bad play made. She may not be the most knowledgable fan, but she certainly is a fanatical fan.

Read the links I posted above, it's pretty obvious that women make up a significant portion of the NFL fan base. The NFL has also turned up their marketing efforts towards women which is indicative of a lucrative, previously untapped market.

Wake up guys, this isn't the stone age. Women are big sports fans, and they are definitely big NFL fans.

Whatever, you still haven't named one single woman starting at quarterback in the NFL.

I don't understand how that comment fits into the discussion at hand. We are not talking about women playing or coaching in the NFL. We are talking about the ability of women to appreciate, understand and analyze the game of football just as men do. Try to keep up.

My apologies. There's so much ignorance floating around in this discussion it's hard not to react.

I've started to write several long winded replies, but I keep stopping myself. No matter how hard we try, some men will never accept women as legitimate football fans. Football will always be a male dominated sport, which is why I love it so much. Women aren't a threat, so I don't see why some men get so bent out of shape over it.

The ability is there. That's not in question. This is kind of dragging out but its about who play, coach, own, and run the league. I just don't see many women who are truely interested at a high level. What is so bad about thinking that?
