Team Hate

My name is Jane Panesse. After my father died in a car accident when I was sixteen, I decided to pursue football as a tribute to him. I struggled my way through college coaching for experience, always trying to prove I belonged to the field.

I’ve always been a stubborn, short-tempered, swearing-like-a-sailor tomboy. But it's a different ballgame with the football players. They can be crass, rude, misogynistic. One in particular, the arrogant and egotistical star quaterback, John Scepter. He thinks there’s no place for women in professional football and is not subtly trying to force me out. I hate him. Yet, no one makes my heart race like he does…
