The long awaited guide that teaches the culture, history and rules of the game without talking down to you.

JACKSONVILLE, FL -- GuysGirl.com proudly announces the publication of its latest book. "A Girl’s Guide to Football Fanaticism" invites readers to immerse themselves in both the game as well as the culture of football in order to gain an appreciation of autumn's favorite diversion.

Released as both an eBook and in print, "A Girl’s Guide to Football Fanaticism" is also the first book by Blythe Brumleve, the founder and CEO of GuysGirl.com.  Ms. Brumleve wrote the book to provide an easy all in one guide that explains not only football rules, but the rich subculture surrounding it. The book details the on field goings on from officials to players to coaches, while familiarizing readers with the history and traditions of the sport.

“There are plenty of books out there that are "Girl's Guide to Sports" that play down the intelligence of women as fans with books that say "what time is the best time to use the bathroom during a game" and "why you should learn sports for your man" but I wanted the book to focus on females who want to be fan for themselves. For the fans who never wanted to ask for fear of embarrassment or for the fans who want to expand their knowledge on the game. This book will have something for everyone from the wanna-be fans to the full on body painted fans,” Ms. Brumleve said.

The instruction does not stop with on field aspects of the game.  From flyovers to fantasy drafts, betting to beer pong and mascots to movies, "A Girl’s Guide to Football Fanaticism" examines the culture surrounding the game of football.  The final chapter is consumed with the preparation of treats for the preferred pregame pastime of fans across America, tailgating.

"A Girl’s Guide to Football Fanaticism" is available on GuysGirl.com as well as Lulu.com in both a print version and full color electronic/eBook versions. Versions compatible with iPads and Kindles are forthcoming.  The eBook costs $14.99. The print version runs $19.99.
