'Goals Gone Wild' Headline, Photo Draw Fire

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. -- The editor of a community college newspaper is being criticized because of a front-page photo and headline, Kansas City, Mo., television station KMBC reported.

The Nov. 16 issue of the Johnson County (Kan.) Community College newspaper featured two female soccer players showing their sports bras. The headline read, "Goals Gone Wild," and a photo caption said there were four good reasons to support the team.

Carl Heinrich, the school's athletic director, said he was shocked when he heard about the paper.

"I don't think it portrays the image of what our athletes are," Heinrich said.

"What we believe is appropriate or inappropriate is up to everybody's interpretation," said Joshua Seiden, the paper's editor in chief.

Seiden said the ladies in the picture saw the photo before it was printed and that neither of the women have complained to him about it.<!--stopindex-->

Some people need to lighten up.

That's pretty clever, not to mention cheeky and fun. Lighten up, indeed.

Do the bras say BIG Johnson Soccer? That's funny.

The real travesty is that these young ladies felt obliged to show their sports bras at all. That is sooooo cliche. Can you say Brandi Chastain????

Look, ladies. If you two are trying to make a point, do your thing without the sports bras. THAT will generate some interest. :tongue2:

OMG!!!! a woman wearing a sports bra with nothing over the top of it...! so uh... yeah.. shocking n such..

id go with unoriginal and the 4 good reasons to support the team is kinda over the top. *shrug* i would have went with "through the highs and lows we will remain firm, in the hunt for the title".
