Step aside Sounders, the Mist is coming

I think that's a variation of a horse collar tackle

Mark you calenders for September 11th 2009, 'cause that's when real football comes to the Pacific Northwest. After a handful of seasons existing only for the Lingerie Bowl on Super Bowl Sunday, the Lingerie Football League has expanded to 10 teams and will have a regular schedule of games beginning in 2009. Among the franchises are the San Diego Seduction, Dallas Desire, Chicago Bliss and of course your Seattle Mist!

I guess the official league announcements and "tryouts" happened months ago. Somehow this one slipped under my radar. That is until the Kent Reporter put the story on their front page last week. Apparently the Seattle Mist (much like the Seattle Thunderbirds) will actually play their home games in my new neighborhood, Kent. The new Showare center to be exact, although if they need a practice field I'm sure my wife won't mind If I paint some yard markers in the back yard.

also be sure to check out the fine selection of Seattle Mist Merchandise at the team shop. You know, cause you have to support the team.
