| Kim Anderson Kimberly has completed her second season as a Wide Receiver for the Chicago Bliss Lingerie Football Team. Kim was drafted by the Chicago Bliss early in the spring of 2010 and made it through training camp to be one of twenty athletes to make the 2010 Bliss Roster. She has also been the Marketing Manager for the team since 2010. Kimberly has always been interested in sports and has competed in everything from Cross Country to Gymnastics to Softball. When she heard about the tryouts for the Lingerie Football League's Chicago Bliss she thought this could be an amazing opportunity and chance to give herself a new athletic challenge. What she didn't realize was how much of a mental challenge football would be. There are many aspects with studying and learning the routes and plays that she has been tackling everyday in an effort to become a better football player. Kim on Twitter Kim on Facebook |
