It's A Celebration For The NFL Chick!

Today, a star was re-born... on December 29, 2008. I re-launched my blog site. Some of you may not have known, but I have been blogging since 2005, when I was a regular blogger at Fox Sports. I've evolved so much and grown in the last 4 years. Hell, even within the last year of of re-launching the blog, I've grown.

This all started because I love to write and I loved football. So one day I was bored, and I decided to use some spare time to write my thoughts for others to see. I have a long way to go, but the fact that people enjoy what I'm thinking is a blessing within itself. And a year later, I've grown followers and even members of my blogging family, who I know always has my back. I asked my blog family to join me in celebrating my special day with me. Here's the nice (or smart ass) things they had to say about my blog:


Happy Anniversary to The NFL Chick!

Thanks to Twitter, I found several ladies whose knowledge of the game of football impressed me greatly. It was on Twitter (where we first "met") that I happened to see your site. And it was there that I really found out just how much you knew! You could teach some guys I know a thing or two about the game. It truly was a different experience for me, as most of the females I come in contact with either don't know or don't care about football at all.

The first post of yours that I read back in April actually had nothing to do with football. It was a post about Orioles opening day, and it was where I made my first comment. After that, and your post on the "Attack Of The Front Runners," I was hooked. It is great to find someone who shares fandom of many of the teams that I like, and is willing to stick with them win, lose or draw, and isn't afraid to call them out when they suck, or praise them when they do well. You and I often agree about a lot, and even if we didn't, I would still make time to read your blog, I enjoy it and I make time to read your latest posts. I may not always comment, but I make an effort to see your work.

And while I could go on and on about what a great person you are, and your great personality, and commend you (and Jos) for the Gridiron Gals site and your weekly NFL picks video, this is supposed to be about the site that started it all-The NFL Chick! So I wish you and the site a Happy Anniversary and here's to many more and greater successes in the years to come.



From Steelergurl:

Congratulations Reeta!!!!!

I love that your blog isn't a girlie-girl blog. You know a ton about the game and I have learned so much from you. We share our pain twice every season when our teams battle it out and yet we still remain friends!! I love reading everything you write - you show passion and commitment to your boys in purple - you are someone after my own heart!

Congratulations on a year in the making!!



From Pigskin Loving Lady:

Congratulations on your anniversary!! Your luck has been awakened and now it’s time for you to blossom. I appreciate your knowledge of the game, you’ve taught me so much this year!! You’re an AWESOME partner and I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!! THE NFL CHICK RAWKS!!




And last but not least, Ed The Sports Fan:

First off, congratulations on the anniversary of THE NFL Chick! I'm supremely proud of you and all of your success, you definitely deserve it!

Now...as far as a favorite "moment" of TNC, well...I've never had more appreciation, amusement, and satisfaction then watching this video of Reeta being featured by the good folks over at Sideline Pass as to her love for the game of football.

People, Reeta loves the COHNTACKT, she loves the PHYSICAL COHNTACKT!!! Haha, I've been hooked ever since.


I've received so much love and encouragement from so many people, and I appreciate each and everyone of you. From my family, friends and my twitter fam, who is the absolute best group of people to follow.

Here we are, 3 days away from 2010, and I promise, I'm going to continue to evolve, bring more to the site, and even give my baby a makeover. She's out of her crawling stages, now it's time for her to walk.

Thanks again for the support, and let's hope I have many, many more birthdays/anniversaries ahead!

PS- Ed The Sports Fan, I'ma slap you for that video :)

Great post! Though I see now I might've been a bit long-winded...whatever. I meant every word. Congratulations!

Ahhh, congratulations to you, m'aam. This is definitely worthy of a celebration (in all seriousness). I'm glad a part of my usual blog-surfing includes coming to receive your insight on football. I love it. Congrats again.
