Finally, there’s a professional football league in America willing to man up when it comes to respecting the national anthem — the all-woman league formerly known as the Lingerie Football League.
Now rebranded as the Legends Football League, the organization said this week that the national anthem is “far too sacred” to protest and its players will not be kneeling during pre-game ceremonies, according to The Washington Free Beacon.
“The LFL recognizes everyone’s First Amendment right to protest, but our nation’s flag and anthem are far too sacred,” the league declared. “Too many fellow Americans have made the ultimate sacrifice, so that our flag and anthem continue in all its majesty.”
“And we STAND in salute of our flag.”
The league known for sexy women playing in nothing but lingerie released a video on Twitter offering a “formal statement” amid the controversy generated by NFL players who have been refusing to stand for the nation anthem.
A controversy that blew up over the weekend when President Donald Trump got involved.

“It symbolizes all the blood, sweat, and tears that have been shed so that we as Americans can raise our flag across our nation,” a narrator says against the backdrop of Old Glory waving. “The LFL salutes all those who make this the greatest country in the world.”
