There's a Lingerie Football League, and it may replace the NFL.

Today is the day in which the NFL collective bargaining agreement runs out.  That means that, if nobody budges before the start of the season, we’re not going to have football on Sundays in 2011-12.  Can you face a future with no National Football League?  Well, if an upstart league has its way, you’ll have some kind of professional football on Sundays this fall, but it’s not a newly-formed professional football league, it’s the Lingerie Football League.  That’s right, if the NFL doesn’t play this season, the Lingerie Football League will move its games from Friday to Sunday.

What’s the Lingerie Football League, you ask?  Well, it’s women in lingerie-type uniforms playing tackle football.  Of course it’s not real lingerie, but it’s close enough to real lingerie for LFL purposes.  In another cute gender inversion, the LFL has male cheerleaders, though they’re not as scantily clad as the female players.  Apparently, the LFL is broadcast via MTV Networks’ family of channels, though I’ve never seen it on television.

Would you watch the LFL?  More importantly, would you have a LFL Fantasy Football league?  Is it even possible to do that with a league that nobody knows anything about?  Hopefully, we don’t have to answer these questions and the NFL will return for the 2012 season.  I’m not sure I can face a world without football on Sundays.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
