Lingerie Football League Puts Star Players on Probation for Wearing Too Much

By Michael J. Mooney

​Lingerie Football League executives, being the true arbiters of class and taste that they are, have put two of the best players in the league on probation for -- of all things -- having too much on during a recent photo shoot.

Mariam Mortaza, sister of the league founder, recently informed both players involved in a New Times photo shoot that they are now on probation.

This is a league where "accidental nudity" clauses are written into every contract and the players are often covered in baby oil before team photo shoots. So what, exactly, did these women do to upset league executives?

They were photographed wearing shoulder pads. No, really.

It was during a cover shoot for a recent New Times feature story on the Miami Caliente. Miami Caliente quarterback Anonka Dixon was featured on the cover of the Miami New Times. Tina
Caccavale, Dixon's favorite receiver, was featured in New Times Broward-Palm Beach.

During games, the women wear shoulder pads, elbow pads, kneepads, and helmets. But when the women of the LFL are photographed, the league generally has them wear only the satin bra and underwear. For the photos accompanying our story, which details the lives of a few lingerie football players as well as the history of the league, we encouraged the women to wear their shoulder pads to look like the fierce athletes they are.

An email I received from Stephon McMillen, media director for the LFL, explains that the players are in trouble because they were photographed wearing shoulder pads and a Nike wristband "without authorization."

​The photo shoot was arranged with the league beforehand. During the week of the LFL playoffs, I spoke with several league officials about the story and the photo shoot, including McMillen, league founder and President Mitch Mortaza, and another league public relations representative. They were all cooperative.

It seems the league wasn't pleased with the article, though. In the email from McMillen, I was informed that I "personally have been banned from being credentialed to cover any LFL or Miami Caliente events and/or games."

According to McMillen, New Times is now banned because we wrote about Mortaza's appearance on the reality show Blind Date ten years ago and because: "You failed to focus on any of Mr. Mortaza's success' [sic] such as launching a women's tackle football league in a tough economical [sic] environment and its growth in 2010." He added:

"Mr. Mortaza has a no non-sense [sic] approach and is extremely passionate about his league and is well respected amongst LFL players. If the LFL is such a horrible experience for its players which you certainly gave an impression of, let me ask you, why do so many return? Why are their [sic] players that have played since 2004? Why are the players that you featured coming back after apparently being placed on probation?"

Dixon had better stats than any other player in the league during the inaugural season, and she accounted for more than 80 percent of Miami's touchdowns. Caccavale led the league in both receptions and interceptions. So apparently the team is willing to punish their firepower if they do something as diabolical as stand for a photograph while they wear shoulder pads.

Dallas' Best Football Team is Also its Best-Looking

By Richie Whitt

Touchdown celebration or unnecessary roughness? Who gives a damn, really.

​Gonna spend my Friday night ogling two of my favorites: Football 'n Females.

Been meaning to catch a Dallas Desire game this season, but lo and behold they only play two home games. The last one is Friday at 9 p.m. against the Los Angeles Temptation at Grand Prairie's QuickTrip Park.

I don't have to tell you that when Temptation meets Desire, you can throw out the records. And throw off the clothes.

The Desire would get their asses kicked by the Dallas Diamonds - mud wrestling, anyone? - but they are one of the best teams in the Lingerie Football League.

I could break down the Xs and Os and tell you that the Desire is 2-0 and has outscored its opponents 60-12. But who I am kidding? All you really want is photos and slideshows of some supple, yet strong sporty skin to get you through another rainy day.

C'mon then. Let's do this ...

How 'bout a video?

Perhaps a slideshow?

Some action shots from the Desire's first home game?

Or just the greatest football card in the history of ever?

Update: Read on for more photos from the Desire's Friday night win over the L.A. Temptation -- or skip straight to our slideshow from the game.

The Desire, the class of the new Lingerie Football League, run out to a hero's welcome Friday night in Grand Prairie.

​

Tackles around the waistline are acceptable in the LFL, though it's fairly common to see players taken down shorts-first.

The L.A. Temptation celebrate a touchdown Friday night, on their way to putting 12 points on the board.

By the end of the night, the Desire had turned in another dominant performance, topping the Temptation 24-12.
