No Lingerie Football for Atlanta

So I know many of you have probably already heard the devistating news that Atlanta will no longer be host to the Atlanta Steam Lingerie Football Team in it’s inaugural season this coming September. I’ve been meaning to write about this, but I’ve been pretty overcome with sorrow.
I figured i should go ahead and break the news to everyone who had not heard on a Monday since Monday’s suck already. Might as well get all the bad news out on the crappiest day of the week.
Evidently no one wanted to pony up and allow the girls to play in their stadium. The city that allowed mediocre crappy Arena League Football to play at both Phillips and Gwinnett Arena could not get any local facility to allow them to bring their slightly racy brand of football to the field. I still think they could make it happen in my backyard and I’ve sent the league an email about this but I have not heard from them yet. Looks like they have already decided to move on and are trying to find a home in Charlotte for the team now.
Way to go fellow ATLiens. Way to let my hopes and dreams fall to the way side. I mean aren’t we the reason the south is known as the Dirty South? Are we not the Dirty Dirty? The home of the Clairmont Lounge? This news coupled with the news that fine gentleman establishments on the south side of town will now have to force their dancers not to touch patrons or serve spirits has truly tarnished the Atl for me. Perhaps we will get the reputation as the “No Fun” city soon. Oh well, there is always the good time emporium that is the Oasis.

Admin had suggested possibly the GI Joe Movie as the next countdown when i broke the news to him this weekend.
I say we set it to December 21st 2012 aka the end of the world.

I am saddened by this. Basically, I would have bought season tickets….now, now what do we have. Nothing.
I’ll give some thought to the new coutdown timer. For the time being, I leave it up there as a memory to what could have been.
