Default Cards Chicks - Female Fans???

I know of a few female Cards fans around here, but sometimes I find myself in a sea of man-types when it comes to football talk. I even try to keep my mouth shut at work so the guys don't think I'm too much into talk of pre-season and depth charts.


Who are the other female fans on the boards? Guys, are your wives/girlfriends/gal pals/daughters fans?

I'm suiting up my girls with their cutie patootie cheer outfits so that, as my 3yo puts it, " I can look just like Daddy. Go Cardinals!"

My wife hates my football addiction.....Can't believe she let me get the boyz tickets this season. If you watched the video I posted in the Cards section, she decided to leave and go to the store cuz she wanted nothign to do with it's production. Like Paula Abdul once sang...Opposites Attract!

I took my wife to a game against the NY Giants several years ago. She is a baseball fan and I always told her that I thought Cardinals games were way more fun than the D-Backs. After she went to her first Cardinals game she was hooked. She loves the underdog and when she saw how out numbered we were at SDS she was ready for the long haul. She now goes to every game with me, training camp, fan fest, tailgates, etc.

I saw you guys at the rally last year at the Tempe training facility (Lazy85249's wife pointed alot of people out for me! Hey, where's Lazy been anyhow?) Your daughter was super cute in her little cheerleader outfit! Start 'em young!

Another female fan here, welcome back Mama Mia! Love football and talking about it......I really don't care if I'm knowledgable or not!

Luckily I'm the boss at my place of employment, and if people want to work......they pay lip service. Flew in *on my broom stick* for 4 Cardinals games last season....and of course, I attend every USC home football game.

My girlfriend is getting into fantasy football ... it's really getting her interested in watching NFL football on sundays and keeping up with the goings on during the week. I really have to give her credit for making the effort.

MM don't know if you remember here but you met my wife at the (hh umm cough) rally last year at the training facility before the Oakland debacle.

She loves going to games and she will cheer them on with the best of them (wicked high fives) but when it comes to talking football or depth charts her eyes glaze over from sheer bordem. She loves the excitement around gametime but thats as far as it goes for her. The son and I on the other hand are fanatical.

Default Coming around....

I made the mistake about 8 years ago of taking my wife to a preseason game at SDS. Not only was it about 200 degrees in the lower bowl, but we were playing the Raiders. While the stadium stunk like a locker room, my wife got the pleasure if sitting next to some sweaty Raidernation wannabe that weighed about 300 lbs and wouldn't put his shirt back on. I traded places with her and it was just as bad.

Since that 8 years, she has seen me come home from about 50 ballgames, often sweaty, dejected from a loss and without a voice. While she questions why I go, she accepts it and even helps me prepare the tailgating trip.

We are at the point now though that she will watch football with me on the days the Cards are out of town.

I'm excited, I have two girls (11 and 14). With two season tickets, i am taking one to each of the preseason games to see what they think. I picked up four extra Cards/Steelers tickets of Ticketmaster, so my wife is going to head to UOP. I promised her its NOT the Raiders.

We'll see mamamia!
