History
The Dixie Blues were a former member of the now disbanded Women's American Football League, where they were runner-ups in the first championship game in 2001 and won the title in 2002. After the league disbanded, they joined the American Football Women's League; they came in second place in the 2003 season. They spent two seasons in the Independent Women's Football League. The Dixie Blues were most recently in the Women's Football League, where they have won the 2006 and 2007 titles.
They were planning to join the National Women's Football Association in 2009, but have instead become one of the charter franchises in the Women's Football Alliance. So far, the Dixie Blues' WFA tenure has been extremely successful, winning three straight division titles and being the only WFA charter member never to have lost a regular-season game in league play.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“They are a sort of post-house,where the Fates
Change horses, making history change its tune,
Then spur away o’er empires and o’er states,
Leaving at last not much besides chronology,
Excepting the post-obits of theology.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“A man will not need to study history to find out what is best for his own culture.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
““And now this is the way in which the history of your former life has reached my ears!” As he said this he held out in his hand the fatal letter.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
