FROM ONE OF
TELEVISION'S MOST WATCHED PROPERTIES AND SUPER BOWL HALFTIME SPECIAL, THE
LINGERIE BOWL, COMES A NEW LEAGUE CALLED THE LINGERIE FOOTBALL LEAGUE (LFL).
THE LFL WILL INCLUDE (10) FRANCHISE TEAMS MADE UP OF THE COUNTRIES HOTTEST AND
MOST ATHLETIC WOMEN PLAYING 7-ON-7 TACKLE FOOTBALL.
When you replace NFL
officials with Division III, junior college, and lingerie league officials, how
could Roger Goodell and the owners expect them to perform at the NFL level.
Their experimentation was not well planned or well thought out, even though
they knew a lockout was going to happen.
"Some of the NFL
replacement refs used to work for the Lingerie Football League. The owners say
they were forced to use them because they couldn't afford the refs from the
Puppy Bowl."--Conan
Although the Lingerie
is an excellent marketing for the sport, believe it is extremely impractical.
Yes it is great to look at and watch because of all the naked women around, but
is that really what a sport is about? If you want to see naked women go to a
strip club. Im not taking away from the girls in the league as they are all
excellent athletes and from the video you have shown, are great at football
(the physical part at least). I feel as though its unjust that women have to
resort to this as a sport. Why can't women have a professional league such as
the NFL or CFL? This league just shows how women cannot really get anything
they want and have equal rights to what men do unless they promote some sort of
sexual meaning or display themselves as sexual objects. I personally would love
to see a regular women's football game as I have watched women's rugby and its
unreal. Its terrible that these women have very minimal padding yet its a full
contact sport. This is ridiculous, until someone dies, turns into a vegetable
or becomes severely paralyzed there will be no changes to the padding. However
with that being said, it may not change at all even if someone were to die. All
in all, the marketing is an excellent idea and the promotions are great. But it
really is a demeaning way to tell women its the only way you can have a
professional football league. You must get naked and roll around in the dirt.
These are real athletes and deserve real equipment, real rules, real management
and real pay or at least some sort of medical coverage.
