Both of the Militia’s last two losses came during away games which I attended while pregnant. I am attending this away game, but I am not pregnant. I checked a few days ago. I am not making that up. So we’re all good there. This morning on the plane, I told Backseat Coach that while […]

It’s only weird if it doesn’t work
Your Militia Cheerleader, while not particularly superstitious, has spent enough time in New Orleans to respect the concept of juju – particularly bad juju. After the Chicago game last season, we brought all our pompoms and clackers and cowbells and beads and flags back home, but they had in them some bad juju; obviously we […]
Omne trium perfectum, yo.
Three is a good number. I like threes. There are three good Star Wars movies. Three kinds of medals you can get at the Olympics. Three primary colors. Rock, paper, scissors. Seriously, it’s like an actual thing. Threes make sense; they are stable and awesome. So hey, Boston Militia, could you do me a favor? […]
The United States of AWESOME
So the WFA playoffs are in hiatus for a few weeks while a bunch of players are over in Finland to kick some football ass and bring home the gold at the Women’s World Cup put on by the International Federation of American Football. What’s that you say? The games haven’t happened yet? How could […]
Meet Bitty Heff.
She’s the new-ish baby of a former Militia player and she’s cooler than you or I will ever be. And she has a message for a certain city.
Meet Your Militia: Kandi (#65/OL)
I don’t think it’s news that your Militia Cheerleader was not a lifelong die-hard fan of the game of football. I liked to watch the Pats on TV, sure, but I had never attended any kind of football game before attending a Militia game. And while that was five years ago and I’ve learned massive […]
I’m like the unstoppable Militia O-line of jokes about grammar.
Text convo between me & Backseat Coach yesterday:
T-minus three days and counting
Well, it’s Wednesday, which means it’s time to start getting anxious about Saturday’s game. Woo hoo! Keep in mind this is no indication that I doubt the Boston Militia’s ability to be awesome – it’s more of an indication that I’m really good at getting anxious about things. Also, despite the Militia’s track record they […]
Playoff Postcards
Dear Boston Militia Mgmt, I hear you guys have a game coming up. Maybe you might wanna put something about it on your website sometime. ETA: Done as of this morning. Lovely. (Game time would be nice, tho.) xo mc Dear Arena Football, You are the football equivalent of just eating dessert. And not even […]
A few round 1 notes
Holy first week of playoffs, Batman. Forfeits! Upsets! And by that I mean one forfeit and one upset. Or two, if you count how UPSET I was by the games that I couldn’t get mid-game score updates for. (Ha ha heteronym joke.) See inset pic for proof; your Militia Cheerleader obviously likes her some technology, […]
