With Halloween upon us, most of you are probably recovering from a weekend of cheap booze and heavy drooling over naughty *insert occupation* and, if you’re anything like me, you’re eager to shut all the lights off and watch Monday Night Football in complete silence. But if you’re one of those “adult” types and you didn’t get a chance to go out this week and ogle scantily clad girls who benefit greatly from masks and makeup, you can at least take comfort in know that some NFL cheerleaders are here to comfort you.

Specifically, the Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens cheerleaders want to comfort you, because they were the only NFL cheerleaders that cared enough about their fans yesterday to dress up in ridiculous outfits. Like Batgirl above. She could be a Cyclops under that mask. Hell, she could be Richard Harrow from “Boardwalk Empire.” Either way, she’s the prime example of how Halloween should be done.

Today, we celebrate the efforts of the Titans and Ravens cheerleaders, and we cast our scorn upon the 30 other NFL cheerleading squads that were too cool for school.

Last month, as the NFL lockout gained steam and us fans were left to wonder what the future will hold, I pointed out that this work stoppage is about much more than watching our favorite football teams take the field next season. Lost in this mess are team and league employees who may not have jobs if this lockout holds up, but since none of them look good in tiny skirts, this is really about the cheerleaders. Despite the league’s ongoing legal battle, cheerleaders from every team are still holding open auditions for their 2011 squads like much hotter and younger versions of Norma Rae. In fact, most franchises have already declared that their cheerleader squads will still make appearances even if their teams are not playing. Bless their hearts.

Most notably, the daughter of an iconic player has risen from the ranks of young, cute and perky girls to wave her spirit fingers in the face of adversity. That girl is Alexa Flutie, the reigning Miss Massachusetts and daughter of Doug Flutie. Alexa is now a cheerleader for the New England Patriots and we can’t help but salute her strength and bravery. In fact, we recognize the great strides taken by all of the new Patriots cheerleaders that earned their tight outfits this week, like the ladies in the banner image. But why stop there? The Houston Texans cheerleaders are also deserving of recognition for announcing their 2011 squad, especially since they have hot blonde twins. And we can’t forget the Indianapolis Colts. They play in a dome, so they don’t ever have to bundle up like Alexa will. They also have a great tendency to hug each other. Win-win, friends.

Hey, why are you sitting here reading my babble? Go forth and celebrate true NFL bravery once more…

There are few things in the world I love more than college football and the accompanying hottie cheerleaders. Unfortunately for me, I made the unfortunate decision of going to school in the Big East, where the only thing that looks worse than the cheerleaders is Greg Paulus under throwing receivers while wearing uncomfortably tight football pants.

I say this only because college football makes me miss my home in the South, where the football and cheerleaders are almost equally entertaining, but for completely different reasons. Case in point, the above pictured Taylor Corley. Taylor, a freshman at Mississippi State, is a now former member of the school’s cheerleading team, who posed for Playboy this past November. Now, it appears that Corley is setting her college education aside to pursue a career in reality television.

Corley on her future with Playboy:

I’ve been in contact with Playboy, I actually was on the Playboy Morning Show on Playboy Radio this (Wednesday) morning! I’m also in the running for Model of the Year 2011!

Corley, who is from Atlanta, on the reality show pilot for which she’s been cast:

I am about to start a new reality TV series called Girl Swagg, it’s a pilot for MTV/VH1 and I’m very excited to move forward with that. This has been planned for a few months now though. I do not have any representation yet, as of right now my mom is just helping me with everything! –Sports by Brooks

Last year, beacon of Internet gossip blogging integrity TheDirty.com featured a post about Sarah Jones, a cheerleader for the Cincinnati Bengals. One of The Dirty’s readers valiantly exposed Sarah as a less-than-reputable lady of class, basically saying that she was a jock-chasing disease trap, and she took her fight to court to clear her good name. Sarah, who also spends her days working as a high school teacher, was awarded $11 million in damages in a triumphant decision in the face of careless slander. The only problem is that she’ll probably never get to deposit it.

You see, Sarah’s lawyer filed the lawsuit against the wrong company. Instead of suing Hooman “Nik Ritchie” Karamian and TheDirty.com, the lawsuit instead targeted TheDirt.com and Dirty World Entertainment Recordings. Whoops. Dirty World Entertainment is a Dublin, Georgia outfit dedicated to underground rap artists, like Trae Duice, according to their MySpace profile, which I checked after traveling back to 2005. TheDirty.com belongs to Dirty World LLC. Simple mistake. Simple $11 million mistake.

This whole blogosphere is out of order, The Last Angry Fan:

I’ve never really understood the mind set of the male cheerleader. I can understand how some guys just have the rhythm within them, and a natural desire to hang out with hotties on a consistent basis, but I feel like there are better options to fulfill those desires.

Although I can try understand why a man would want to lead cheers, male cheerleaders still give me a very severe case of the heebie jeebies. No man should ever be that peppy. It doesn’t matter if you’re gay, transgender, or whatever else kids seem to be doing these days, men are stoic creatures. We don’t cry, we rarely laugh, and when we do, it’s usually at the expense of others.

Speaking of laughing at the expense of others, there’s a video of an unusually peppy male cheerleader busting all kinds of moves after the jump. And I say “unusually peppy” because he makes the rest of the male cheerleading community look like Charlton Heston. Thanks to Upstate Underdog for the tip. Read the rest of this entry »
