Turns out the lingerie was just getting in the way.
The former Lingerie Football League is changing its name, logo and requirement that all the women on a team play football in what amounts to a bikini with shoulder pads. This is a monumental change for a league that had an “accidental nudity” clause reportedly written into its player contracts.
Imagine if fondue wanted to end its association with melted cheese.

When you take away the gimmick -- Chicks in underpants! Accidental nudity! Girls Girls! Girls! -- what is left?
There is already a tackle football league for women. They wear full pads, helmets, mouth guards. And when they do their hair before the game, it’s for functionality.

I wonder if "New Coke" is going to be their sponsor.....

Not changing all that much by the look of the new getups:

OT: Who's Rypien's daughter dating? Just saw something about it and now I can't remember. Pretty sure it's a Nats player. A pitcher. Gio maybe? Or Detwiler?

Rumor was Gio, but he denies it:
