A tradition started by Eva every autumn in the USA - the NFL women's fighting league signups are starting now. I am taking the signup portion over from Eva this year since she is going to be away for a while, almost right up until the regular NFL season begins.
For those of you new to this, it's nothing that big, doesn't require that much. Pick your favorite NFL team and you represent them either dressed up as one of their cheerleaders or at least wearing their jersey in a wrestling match/fight.
The rules are simple.
Open to females only (sorry guys, but you can be male cheerleaders for the girls and welcome to comment and follow, but while I am fine with mixed matches, some others aren't)
You pick a team and follow their schedule. Your opponent is the representative from the team your team is playing.
Being that there is a game once a week, I don't expect full matches - but hopefully get a paragraph or two summary from both the winner and the loser. Typically if the game had a result of 28-27, the match was a very close match. If it was 45-10 then the match was written as a squash match
It has been brought up in the past the idea of having the match before the game for an "alternate" record - for example Lions vs Chicago. Me as Lions rep could beat Chicago's rep in a fight on Friday, but chicago whoops Lions ass on Sunday. That sounds like a fun idea, but problem is in the past participation hasn't been super active by the halfway point of the season and people tend to drop out if their team isn't doing well etc. Might be a fun idea to experiment with, but could also be time consuming since matching 2 people up before the game is played might not be convenient with time etc.
anyway - sign ups start now. I am reserving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for Eva, pick any of the other teams though.
