    The former Washington Redskins quarterback’s daughter made her debut this weekend in the Lingerie Football League.

    If you are a big football fan probably one of the first things that comes to mind when someone mentions Mark Rypien are the Washington Redskins wining Super Bowl XXVI with the Canadian-born quarterback as the MVP of the game. But once you take a glance at his daughter Angela we are sure that your mind will have something else to associate Mark with.

    Like her father Angela is also a quarterback, who plays in the Lingerie Football League for the Seattle Mist.  Her debut took place on Sunday against the Green Bay Chill, and it couldn’t have gone better as her squad won the game 42-8. Besides playing in the same position as her father, she also wears No. 11 just like he used to.

    She has always received the support from her father, Angela said, who must be very proud of her debut since she threw three touchdowns passes.

    About the critics that question why girls have to play in lingerie Angela avoids discussions, and simply refers to it as “another sport” that otherwise wouldn’t “drag people in.”

    In our opinion, she couldn’t have said it better.
