Passion pit


Sis-Boom-Bust?

It turns out the Philadelphia Union is not the only new pro team on the local sports horizon.

Brace yourself for something called the Philadelphia Passion.

Think NFL cheerleaders and then rev it up a few notches. And remove a few articles of clothing.

The Passion will be the local entry in something called the Lingerie Football League.

I’m not making this up. It’s women in what appears to be little more than bras, panties, shoulder pads and helmets doing battle. Think Victoria’s Secret on the gridiron.

Ladies, if you think you’ve got what it takes (and don’t ask me what that is), the Passion is holding open tryouts today at the Tri-State Sports Complex in Aston from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The public is invited to check out the, err, action.

Here’s my question: Do they have male cheerleading squads with guys in tiny shorts, or maybe jock straps?

Maybe I’m just not feeling the Passion.
