Nothing like old codgers to propose ideas that no one else would dare:
Quote:
The president of world soccer suggested that female players wear more revealing uniforms to bring more attention to their sport.
One English player called the suggestion by FIFA president Sepp Blatter ``ridiculous'' and ``irresponsible.''
Blatter said women's soccer needed different sponsors from the men's game and should try to attract fashion and cosmetics companies by featuring ``more feminine uniforms.''
``Tighter shorts, for example,'' Blatter told the Swiss newspaper SonntagsBlick. ``In volleyball the women also wear other uniforms than the men. Pretty women are playing football today. Excuse me for saying that.''
