The Better Halves Weigh In

Ladies of the DDC Join In

Chicago (AP)--As plans for the 2008 NFL DDC are finalized, the wives of the players in this esteemed tournament are joining in the fun. All will be making the trip to Chicago in May to participate in the festivities, but they claim they will also be having some fun of their own.

Colleen Stachowiak said, "I've got my coasters and Windex packed and I'm ready to have some fun in Chicago! It's time the ladies planned some activities of their own". This will be Shannon Wade's first trip to the NFL DDC, though she has supported her fiance, Butts Ostrander, since they began dating. Elizabeth Roush is also looking forward to the DDC; this will be her second time making the trip to support her husband. She is rooting for the trophy, affectionately named "The Birdie", to make the trip back to St. Louis.


The ladies have released a tentative schedule for Saturday afternoon while the boys are playing. Among the list of possibilities are shopping in downtown Chicago and drinking at the bars near Wrigley.

Several celebrities have weighed in on the recent developments. The ladies at The View are thrilled that the DDC wives are taking control and planning their own activities. Elisabeth Hasselbeck says, "You go, girls!", while Barbara Walters said, " ...". Well, we're not sure what she said, but we think it had something to do with watching her Oscars special on ABC tonight. Finally, Hillary Rodham Clinton also made a comment during her speech this afternoon that she is "Glad to have inspired the ladies to stand up and lead."

Further reports of the ladies activities will follow as soon as they develop.
