Sean Salisbury was recently fired from the broadcast team a couple of weeks ago as well. Salisbury claims he left due to other work and laughed at the announcement he was fired. Word is that Miller also had employment elsewhere and wasn't going to return next year anyway. There's also a rumor going around that Miller and the backup QB who started the last game were having a relationship, which is not allowed under the league's rules. As the Lingerie Football League turns...the new soap opera.

The Lingerie Football League has officially announced the release of Orlando Fantasy Head Coach Doug Miller and his staff due to team-related behavioral infractions that proved to be in violation of the league’s zero tolerance conduct policy.
According to highly-placed league sources, the swift decision to release Miller hinged upon an unacceptable chain-of-events that occurred immediately following a loss late last month to the Tampa Breeze. The infractions include, but are not limited to, blatant disrespect and unbecoming behavior on the sidelines between the coach, several players and league personnel as well as officials.
Further, the dismissal of the second-year coach was also attributed to a much-maligned decision to play star running back Etta Paul in spite of a previously sustained concussion, which officials say were in direct violation of league medical staff recommendations.
This morning, LFL Chairman Mitchell S. Mortaza released the following statement on the league’s decision which reads as follows: “We at the LFL value dignity and class in our leadership as much as we value winning football. The league will not tolerate any of our coaches or players losing sight of being role models while having a true appreciation of the opportunity of playing in the LFL.
It is with great disappointment that we have decided to part ways with Coach Doug Miller and his staff. We wish the coaching staff the absolute best in their future endeavors on and off the field,” said, Mitchell S. Mortaza, Commissioner, Lingerie Football League, LLC.
Inside sources indicate that an immediate search for Miller’s successor has already commenced and league officials are confident that they can find an individual who can better position the franchise to achieve long-term success through a unwavering commitment to on and off-the-field integrity and player development.
The LFL League Office has opened a formal investigation into the behavior of Orlando Fantasy players and further action is expected in the off-season. Sources indicate that certain players will be banned indefinitely from the league as a result.
