Lingerie Football League

The Lingerie Football League (LFL) is a women's American football league.

Conception and first season

The concept originated from the hugely successful Super Bowl halftime alternative television special called the Lingerie Bowl, a pay-per-view event which was broadcast at the same time as the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show. The event featured two teams of models playing an American football game while dressed in lingerie. The two original teams were Team Dream and Team Euphoria. Team Dream won the first game with a score of 6-0.

The League is an extension of this idea. The league was expanded to four teams in 2005:

*Los Angeles Temptation (formerly "Team Dream")
*New York Euphoria (formerly "Team Euphoria")
*Dallas Desire
*Chicago Bliss

2008

The league announced it would expand to ten teams in 2008 [http://www2.tbo.com/content/2008/apr/24/241734/lingerie-football-league-has-tryouts-tampa-team/] , adding:

*Atlanta Steam
*Seattle Mist
*Miami Caliente
*San Diego Seduction (originally planned for San Francisco)
*Tampa Breeze [http://www.etamparealestate.com/lingerie-football-league-welcomes-tampa-bay-breeze/]
*Phoenix Scorch

The Lingerie Football League will kick off its inaugural season in Fall 2009 with ten franchises including Los Angeles Temptation, Phoenix Scorch, Seattle Mist, San Diego Seduction, Dallas Desire, New England Euphoria, Chicago Bliss, Atlanta Steam, Miami Caliente and Tampa Breeze. LFL games are set to air on cable television in Fall 2009.
