Title: NFL Cheerleaders...
Post by: Werewolf on September 15, 2008, 11:50:04 AM
This is worth a look be you 16 or 80 and male.

Safe for work.

I don't remember cheerleaders bein' this hot when I was young - not that it would'a mattered much - these babes are way outt'a my league even if they did priortized brains over looks and brawn (which I'd guess they absolutely do not).

NFL Cheerleaders

The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders are the standard. All the rest are runners up.

I always thought the Patriots had hot cheerleaders.
They'd probably seem hotter if they were shooting guns on TV instead of what they usually do.

Does the NFL really need T&A to sell football???

I seriously don't get it, though.
They are too far away to look at most of the time.  They don't show 'em much on TV. 
They are hot, but I don't know anyone who watches football for the TnA.

Do hockey teams have cheerleaders and, if so, what do they look like? Do they have teeth?

Who watches football for the cheerleaders?  They aren't all that attractive anyway.

They're nice-looking eye candy. And I suppose their physical fitness could have side benefits for an amorous partner. But let me tell you: there is one hell of a lot of life after rutting, and a faithful partner whose main qualification is more than nice boobs and legs is infinitely more important for the rest of your life. I actually feel kind of sorry for them.

Hear, hear!

A few years ago I bumped into a childhood friend of mine I hadn't seen since those days. He'd just retired from the Navy and one of his first acts was to buy season tickets to Braves and Falcons games. I went to a handful of games with him - both sports - over the next couple of years. There was a man who sat near us at Falcons games, a fan of the game as well as of the Falcons, who shared your view. Every time, without fail, that the cheerleaders went on the field or came to the end zone to "entertain" us he would stand up and yell, "Get off the field! This is the National...Football...League, we don't need you! Get off the field!"

There's a cheerleader for the Houston Texans. Her name is Summer Williams. She works for NASA as an engineer, and she's a pilot.

The cheerleaders get paid minimum wage, and has to attend 30 charity events during a season, plus practice 3 times a week and attend the home games.

She was featured in AOPA pilot back in Sept. 07.

So not all of them are just eye candy.

I thought I heard they make extra money doing appearances at car dealerships and other places, not from the team.  So I guess the team probably sees it as "why NOT have cheerleaders".  They probably see it as extra publicity.

Everyone has different tastes.  Beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say.   grin

I would have thought they paid them better, just so there's less temptation for them to take side jobs as strippers or porn actresses or such-like.  Or maybe they don't care about that.  Dunno.

Yo.

Seriously, though, I think they wear a lot less clothing than they did 20 years ago.  That probably has something everything to do with it.

There is a cheerleader in hockey for the Panthers - they call themselves the Ice Dancers.  Supposedly she's a family-law attorney.  So, not all of them are just eye-candy.  Unfortunately, many of them are though.

Yeah I don't know where the stereotype that eye candy girls are JUST eye candy comes from.

I dated and/or was friends with many of the cheerleaders in my high school. Many of them turned down cheerleading/volleyball scholarships because the National Merit, etc, scholarships gave them pretty much a full ride to really good colleges. They were also very nice girls. A couple of them dated me, and I am not exactly a perfect 10 in the looks/brawn category.

A couple of my friends now (who I have known for years) are strippers. They also go to school with me. One is getting her masters in computer science, and is one of the nicest girls I know. And the other is majoring in Classics and understands the ancient Greek and Roman philosophers 10 times better than I do. She tutors me when I have trouble in Latin class. She is also a huge Star Trek/ Star Wars/ Tolkien nerd, a complete sweetheart and my best friend.

I think this stereotype comes from the fact that the majority of guys do not have the confidence to talk to "eye candy" girls even on a casual or friendly basis. They cover for this by convincing themselves that these girls are not worth the time anyway. "I am not missing out because if she is THAT FREAKIN HOT she is probably a dumb shallow skank."

Guess what, you ARE missing out.

I guess I'm getting old. After looking at all 31 images ... I thought most of them were pretty damned unattractive. With two exceptions, the cheerleaders my senior year in high school were better looking.

Image number 19 has to be a transvestite ...

Valid.  In college, I knew a few girls who were very intelligent and also cheerleaders.  One of them was even in the honors program.  So, you're right that stereotypes don't always hold.

They hold enough though that they continue to be repeated.

Post by: The Annoyed Man on September 17, 2008, 05:14:11 AM
My experience has been totally opposite. I know and have always known just as many dumb ugly girls and dumb pretty girls, and vice versa.

As far as the actual cheerleadrs in question on this thread, yeah, i agree... some of them you probably wouldn't look twice at if it wasnt for the outfit and the makeup.

Which tells me they must have some actual cheerleading/dancing/gymnastic talent  grin

In my experience, the stereotype about pretty girls being dumb holds pretty true. Of course, there are exceptions. I'm married to one. But most of the cheerleaders at my high school and most of the "hot" girls that everyone wanted in college were as dumb as rocks, not to mention extremely arrogant.

I live in south/central Texas.

The girls down here are a little different from the rest of the country  angel

Sometimes I think that is partly a result of the ease of getting assistance/attention from guys that brings that on.

I agree. I also have noticed that in my corner of the world, they usually seemed to come from rich families and had never had to work for anything. Daddy provided it all.
