The Legends Football League, founded as the Lingerie Football League, wants viewers to know that its players will be standing proudly for the national anthem before games this season. “Our nation’s flag and anthem are far too sacred,” the league said in a statement.

Somehow we don’t think the Legends Football League is worried it will lose any viewers with its video, posted Wednesday, but teased with an Instagram post Tuesday:

We like the sentiment; our only wish is that the announcer could have toned it down a bit in order to make the statement sound a little less skeevy.

I hope everybody will add LFL to their cable subscription… (but make sure your wives are OK with it first).
