"We're not Sin City for nothing. We're going to have a lot of fun committing that sin, too." But Bartley and everyone else attached to the Sin emphasize the point that scantily clad women playing tackle football is more than a gimmick. These are not strippers pretending to be athletes, at least not anymore. Anthony wrote: "I am the offensive coordinator, first game opens Sept. 2nd in Chicago vs. The Chicago Bliss." http://www.lvrj.com/sports/lingerie-players-proud-to-put-skin-in-the-game-127188708.html?ref=708

Smartphone QR Codes QR codes have been around for a while, and many big corporations use them. In the past six months, though, small companies in the U.S. have flocked to the technology, thanks to services that let them easily create codes. Meanwhile, numerous phones, including many Androids and BlackBerrys, come with an app that reads QR codes. (Others, like the iPhone, must download the software.) Scanbuy Inc., a New York company that develops and manages QR codes, estimates that 30 million people in the U.S. have a code-reader app on their phone.
Stay tuned for more QR codes from the AFA as we rollout raffles, lottery drawings, videos and other interesting info via these codes. By the way, we already have ads with our code in the NY Jets & Giants Gameday Yearbook Programs.
To test our code, just scan the QR code to the right with your Smartphone. | | | | | | About the American Football Association: The American Football Association is a national 501(c) (3) non-profit, tax exempt corporation in its 31st year of operation and is dedicated to the advancement of adult (semi-pro) football from coast-to-coast.
