TORONTO - Krista Ford — the athletic, football-loving daughter of city councillor Doug Ford, and niece of mayor Rob — is trying out for Toronto’s new lingerie football team. Krista, 20, posted on her Twitter page on Monday that there were only “6 days ‘till (Lingerie Football League) tryouts. Training hard!” The LFL, which brands itself as “true fantasy football,” currently has 10 U.S. teams with names such as the Philadelphia Passion and the Orlando Fantasy. It’s game is based on attractive, athletic women playing full-contact football while scantily dressed in bras and panties. When asked if he was uncomfortable with his daughter running around a sports field with next to nothing on, Councillor Doug Ford said he wanted to be a supportive father.And besides, he said, women can be seen playing sports while in bikinis on Toronto beaches all through the summer.“She’s a football fanatic. She said, ‘dad, I want to play,’ and the natural instinct for a dad is ‘You’re not going to be running around in lingerie’ ... but then I thought what the heck.” Mayor Rob Ford, who longs to bring an NFL team to the city, has thrown his support behind Krista. “The mayor certainly supports his niece in any endeavour,” said Ford spokesman Adrienne Batra. “She’s very athletic ... and this is something that interests her, so he wishes her the best.”
Of course they support her, just in time for election season, right guys? What better way to capture the average males attention than by proliferating some sweet lingerie football shots of your young vixen of a daughter/niece.
The father is playing this situation like a fiddle. that line about "woman can be seen playing sports while in bikinis on Toronto beaches all through the summer" just about wrapped up the male vote (and the hot girls that vote, but there's not enough of them to be significant). Mark my words this guy will be the future Canadian president or prime minister, whatever they do up there. You can dump garbage in my country any day if these are the kind of policy goals you plan on pursuing. Bikini's, football, lingerie and beaches. Canada just revolutionized the politics game.
