That's not gonna please many of the female NFL fans I guess. :o)

I watched last season of the LFL.
I don't like the rule that they have to pass every drive. I know it keeps them from doing nothing but running the ball, but it just seems like a useless, random rule.

I just did maintenance on the moving lights in Target Center where the Minnesota Valkyries played the Green Bay Chill... guy who worked there said those ladies get some NASTY rug burns. It's just AstroTurf on cement - ouch!!

Good description in Wikipedia for those of us who haven't seen it.
There are significant differences between most women football leagues and the Lingerie Football League. The Lingerie Football League is an organization based on sex appeal, because of the nontraditional, revealing uniforms and partial selection of roster by physical appearance. It also plays under a modified indoor football format with a reduced-size field, so that it can be played in smaller venues and so that heavier linemen are not needed. (Despite the heavy use of sex appeal, the league does play legitimate football, and most of the league's players have previous athletic experience; former NFL players have coached LFL teams.)

Well, Mrs K is not at all impressed by any of that. ;)
Serious athletes laying down serious hits while wearing their underwear?
And I think there have been a few questions about whether the league has been covering medical bills as well as they should be.
Not saying I wouldn't watch it though. ;)
