Angela Pippos is well known in Victoria and in her home state of South Australia as a prominent ABC journalist and sportscaster. More importantly, she is notorious on all five continents (or so she claims) as the most obsessive and delusional fan of the Adelaide Crows Football Club ever to frighten small children. With the possible exception of Lleyton Hewitt.
In 'The Goddess Advantage' Angela takes us through a typical year of agony, ecstasy and largely unrequited sporting passion as the Crows enter the dreaded 'rebuilding phase'. Supported by the spiritual presence of the Goddess Pallas Athena, and by the physical presence of Athena Pippos' stuffed tomatoes and keftedes, Ange braces herself for a year of peaks and troughs. The only respite, it seems, will be a mid-season break on the legendary Greek island of Ithaca.
