Got Cha Back!
Posted by VeRonda Wicks September 10th, 2008The quarterback’s job is to choose the best option on the field that will produce the greatest reward… He stands in the pocket (an imaginary box that offers temporary [and I mean temporary] comfort) to make his decisions and every second counts… He doesn’t do it alone.
He has an offensive line (big men with their backs to him ensuring his safety… at all cost) in place to protect him and if they all work together and do their job, the quarterback isn’t touched and can then get the ball-successful-where it needs to go… Obviously, the end zone is the ultimate goal. The offensive line’s presence is crucial and without them football would be a tea party (with big, sweaty men wearing the same hat… uh, social faux pas!).
Everyday you’re out there (in a sense) ”quarterbacking” your life. Who’s your offensive line and what would you do without them? Man, my offensive line wins the Super Bowl for me every year… and without them I’d probably stay in bed most days. Thanks Hubby, Mom, Fave Bro, Fab Sis (in law), In Laws Supreme, and the rest of you guys (you know who you are) who suit up each day (spandex and all!) and have my back!

My offensive line is my mom and my friends. They always have my back at a moments notice. Sometimes they don’t pick up the blitz and I get sacked, but they’re always there to pick me up afterwards.

Vixen! You’re right. I’m glad to see another fan, too! We are, indeed, rare–but, that’s why I’m here… to be a sports’ resource for women everywhere.
