On Tuesday, February 24th, 2009, Womens Professional Soccer, PUMA and international soccer stars Marta Vieira da Silva, Leslie Osborne and Amy Rodriguez revealed the new home and away uniforms for the leagues inaugural season. The event was hosted by media personality and two-time Olympic gold medalist, Summer Sanders. In addition to the uniforms, fashion designer Christian Siriano showcased his fashion interpretation of the home and away uniforms, creating two unique outfits inspired by the sport and team uniforms.
Just curious, when did soccer players start wearing skirts? I know that in field hockey, tennis, and squash players mostly women wear skirts. Is Sepp Blatter running WPS? Does anyone remember 2005? FIFA president Sepp Blatter said the women's game needed different sponsors from men's soccer and could attract these clients with the use of "more feminine uniforms." Blatter made the comments during an interview with the Swiss newspaper SonntagsBlick.
"Tighter shorts, for example," Blatter told SonntagsBlick. "In volleyball the women also wear other uniforms than the men. Pretty women are playing football today. Excuse me for saying that."
In the report, Blatter suggested women's soccer should try attracting fashion and cosmetics sponsors. Several women's soccer players have shrugged off or lashed out at the FIFA president's comments.
Obviously we know who runs soccer... George, Abe, Jackson, Hamilton and every other Dead President on the Green Back.
