Football in general intrests the general public; however the general public probaly finds a different kind of enjoyment in watching women's football.  This is due to the fact that society has a general perception of women and to see them take part in a sport as intense as football stimulates a reaction from both males and females.  I think most males would find it interesting because football is said to be a man's sport therefore men would be interested in watching football played by women and comparing it to the football played by men.  On the otherhand there are a few sexes men that would find the idea of women playing such a sport unethical and see it as another attempt by women to prove to men that they are in fact equal, and in the eyes of these sexes individuals it would spark no intrest and cause an uproar.  Like the men, women would also be devided because some would find it intresting as well as encourageing, because it shows that football is not just a "mans' sport" and will inturn encourage women to be more competitive with men and know that are capable of everything men are.  Some women would take a different perspective and find nothing about it interesting because they may feel that women should not participate in such barbaric activities.  \n     I personall think that society in general would find it interesting but there is always going to be a few people on the other side.

Not at all. My 3yr old daughter is starting baby football next season, she loves it. The beauty is, it is a game that can be played by both sexes. Women's football is beginning to advance albeit slowly and some sides are more successful than male counterparts. Just enjoy it and if you want to play go ahead.

As long as the girl knows how to play football, I have no problems. Its the girls that want to be treated special when playing are the ones I have problems with

i never wore a cup when i played football...but depending on what position you're playing it might be a smart idea...for instance people try to hit running backs in the nuts all the time

Please learn to spell "participate."  After that, allow girls to participate in football, then you can complain about not participating in softball (and field hockey!)   Ok?

Immigrants ... yes, the Dallas Cowboys are by far the most popular NFL team in Mexico.  The NFL has staged exhibition games in Mexico City for several years.  Last season the Cardinals and 49'ers played a regular season game in Mexico. \n\nThe NFL has held exhibition games in Japan, German, England as well.  In addition, the league has funded the the NFL Europe league for several years.  \n\nI don't know that the league has a separate specific marketing campaign for Women, but according to the NFL 40% of their fanbase are women with league licensees expanding their merchanise offerings to products targeting females. \n\nThe league is corporate partner of the United Way which helps lots of charity organizations across the country including disabled groups.  In addition, the league has had several high profile players suffer delibitating injuries like Daryl Stingley and Mike Utley. \n\nBefore you criticize the league for not appealing to homosexuals, the outgoing commissioner of the NFL, Paul Tagliabue, was honored last year by PFLAG's Stay Close campaign.

It might be hard to find ex-nfl or current nfl players. I would suggest you to go to 24 hours fitness and you can hire a trainer there. I remember my friend, ex-nfl running back, worked out at 24 hours fitness and he had a trainer there. When you go there, keep working out. Second, focus on where you play as your position like running back or wide receiver. Otherwise, you can try out for Arena Football League2. Other league scout will watch how you play before offer you a tryout. Good luck.

I love football too!! Next to boxing it's my favorite sport.\n\nI think girls should be able to play contact sports against other girls teams. But if you took the best all star girls football team (Just saying as an example) and had them play, oh say the New England Patriots...It would be a bad sight to see some girl running a crossing pattern getting her head torn off by Rodney Harisson...Thats why playing other girls is for the best.

Soccer--twisted my knee in a funny position.  \n\nVolleyball--got hit in the face a few times by over-zealous spikers (men)and got knocked down by over-zealous teammates (men) and got to a point where I refuse to ever play with men again.  \n\nBadminton--Got hit in the head and face by my doubles partner at the time as she was hogging my portion of the court the entire time.  As soon as the game was over, I walked away and refused to ever play with her again.  \n\nDoes that work for 'ya?

It sounds like you should play defense.  I'd say the point.\n\nThe point's responsibility is to mark first home. She should be able to stick check, body check and look to intercept passes.\n\nIf you can run fast (but maybe don't have endurance), you could play the counterpoint or the third man.\n\nCheck out laxpower.com for more specifics on the positions:\nhttp://www.uslacrosse.org/the_sport/womens_rules.phtml
