Wardrobe malfunction–I think not!. The FCC had a major problem with Janet Jackson’s nipple slip during a past Super Bowl, but it has no issues with the new tissue-thin NFL pants that are a drop a water away from showing the full monty.The NFL switched its long time pant provider from PG-friendly Reebok to an adults-only version from Nike. Allegedly the new pant is made up of several different fabrics that maximize ventilation, durability and comfort. But a little perspiration or inclement weather on game day and America’s sport turns into a day at the gay bathhouse. A little water on these uniforms give you an eye-opening experience.

The pants looks quite innocent dry:

Nike doesn’t seem to think so. A Nike spokesperson says, “We believe it’s an isolated issue, and we’re working closely with the Lions to solve this issue for the player.” Translation: Lions’ Jeff Backus is a sweaty pig and it’s not our fault!

Oh my–somethings do get very slippery when wet.

Hopefully Nike doesn’t solve this problem anytime soon. In the meantime I will be praying for rain on every Sunday from now until the end of the football season.
