Legends Football League: Las Vegas Sin vs. Green Bay Chill | Thomas & Mack Center | May 15, 2014

Cynthia Schmidt of the Las Vegas Sin looks at the scoreboard after scoring a touchdown against the Green Bay Chill on Thursday, May 15, 2014. The Sin beat Green Bay 34-24 at the Thomas & Mack Center, their first win of the Legends Football League season.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I arrived at the T&M to shoot the Legends Football League. It was probably the skimpy outfits that threw me at first ... actually, yes, it was definitely those skimpy outfits. But let me tell you, this is no joke. These beautiful girls turn into monsters on the field. Not only can they pass, catch and block like men, but they tackle like the guys, too. Perhaps especially the Las Vegas Sin, which beat Green Bay, 34-24, in the season home opener.
