Football Betting Online: The Dallas Desire were introduced to the Lingerie Football League way back in 2004, but most have forgotten they actually existed. The franchise was one of the ones which competed before league play was a thing, but its degree of success was relatively minimal.
Back in the 2009-10 campaign, the Desire got off to a fantastic start, winning each of their first three games. They were beaten by Seattle on New Year's Day and went into the playoffs against Los Angeles hoping to reach the title game. Instead, Dallas was knocked off 20-14.
That began a bit of a tailspin for the Desire. They went into the 2010 season with issues playing outdoors when the majority of the rest of the league played inside of arenas. The club was overmatched offensively and scored just a total of 26 points over the course of its three-game season. Its last matchup against Seattle was cancelled due to inclement weather.
Little did anyone know in Dallas at the time that that would be the last game the Desire would play for five seasons.
The Desire are back now though, and they're debuting once again in the 2016 season as members of the rebranded Legends Football League.
The Desire probably have a bit of a leg up on the rest of their competition knowing that they've got a bit of a history and a talent base with which to draw upon. The big draw for this team is the new rivalry which was built up with the Austin Acoustic, another expansion team for the 2016 season.
Dallas will play its games at Dr. Pepper Arena in nearby Frisco, and the hope is that the success of this franchise and the teams in Austin and Omaha will build a nice rivalry right in the heartland of the nation to help make this league less of a coastal league and most of a league played clear across the country.
