Ever wonder what goes on during halftime in a football locker room?

Head coach Chris Michaelson’s angry expletive-filled tirade went after his players calling them retarded – among other things.

He coaches the Seattle Mist, a part of the LFL: formerly known as a Lingerie Football League team, now known as the Legends Football League.

A representative for the LFL told TMZ the coach was just trying to get the players fired up last weekend. The only thing they don’t condone was his use of the word retarded.

For what it’s worth, the Mist beat their opponent last week, the Green Bay “Chill” 55-36.

The incident is under review by the commissioner’s office.
