The X League has a controversial history. Formerly known as the Lingerie Football League, the now-rebranded organization is yet to escape from viral notoriety, or cover up completely. Star linebacker CJ Dunning’s Trumpkini is all the rage on social media right now.
Mike Ditka is the owner and chairman of the rebranded X League. When Ditka took the reins, the league said in a statement that it will begin play in eight cities next April. Those eight franchises include: the Seattle Thunder, Los Angeles Black Storm, Austin Sound, Denver Rush, Chicago Blitz, Kansas City Force, Omaha Red Devils, and the Atlanta Empire. The 2021 schedule will be announced in October, the league said on its website.
“It’s time to give women, and girls, the same opportunity to play the game that the men play,” Ditka said in a video touting his involvement in the league and their new more serious direction.

One of Ditka’s star players is already bringing some attention to the league, even if it may not be the type they are seeking. CJ Dunning is a linebacker for the Denver Rush, and she dropped this pic below:
The revamped league may get a boost from this ‘Trumpkini’ thing if this picture gets a few hundred thousand more likes. It sure seems like CJ would make women’s tackle football great again.
