Lingerie Football League goes on hiatus for 2012 season



http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/lingerie-football-league-goes-hiatus-2012-season-190752473.html

The Lingerie Football League is hanging up its garters for the 2012 season.

League spokesman Jim Wallin announced Friday that the LFL will go on hiatus until April 2013 so it can get on a warm-weather schedule in the spring and summer. Until then, players will go on promotional tours in Australia and Asia.

The seven-on-seven female league was created in 2009. Eleven teams played in the 2011 season, which culminated in a third straight championship for the Los Angeles Temptation. But, there I go, acting like the league is about football and not bras and panties and unattached garter clips.

It was fun early on, but now it seems to be all about the money. What ever happened to playing football while wearing lingerie because you LOVED the game?

maybe they could dispense with the lingerie. That'd do wonders for ticket sales, not to mention pay-per-view rights.
