Why not just eliminate cheerleaders altogether.

Why not just eliminate the NFL altogether?

They don’t have to cheerlead, that’s also an option.

How about paying them for their work.

 

[glimmerman]

I hear they do ok for the appearances and photo shoots, calendars etc.

True story as bad as it may be as a preteen early in my football watching days I liked the browns and a rb named Leroy Kelly . I do remember them playing the Dallas cowboys might have been 1970 can’t remember but I do remember seeing cowboy cheerleaders and that was all she wrote became a cowboy fan forever but first it was the girls

Nobody is holding a gun to their heads to be a cheerleader, and do you realize how many volunteers it takes to put on any event, whether it's football, concert, tennis, golf, etc none of those people get paid, "for their work".....these cheerleaders make a lot of their money with outside events, calenders, photo shoots etc, than cheerleading at games I'm sure but it's also good for their resume for future endeavor's..

Not sure if serious, but if so, that's mad sexist.

The horror!

Equal pay for male cheerleaders - what do they make?

 

[iceberg]

$12 an hour and $400 a game? Pathetic JJ. I have two daughters at home and they watch their CMT show. Those women go through hell, and they are not compensated fairly.

pretty sure being a cheerleader is optional.

all this virtue signaling is making me nauseous...

How is that sexist? He’s not saying women don’t make good cheerleaders or that they’re less than male cheerleaders. For something to be “sexist”, one needs to denigrate a sex an his statement didn’t do that.

Those poor, mistreated and abused women! For most, it’s not even their main job.

That's true.

Cheerleaders should get paid!
Cheerleaders should not get paid!

Thread bonus: Eagles cheerleader video and pic.

Or we could do what the Bears did.

 

[GMO415]

You realize, no one makes them do that?

Jones should have disbanded them.

It's a choice, but if Jerry wants to continue their legacy compensate them accordingly. The judge saw fit to do so.

 

[IndianaCowboys1994]

The eagles got one.

We have one. His name is Mickey Spagnola.

Well that ain't never happening if 'we' equals Jerry Jones. The man endorsed Rowdy the Mascot of all things as a crowd pleasing attraction. I would extremely doubt his way of thinking would ever consider ending a 60-year gameday tradition like the DCC.

The thought might make him chuckle though.

Three pages of posts and still no pics?

Actually quite a few NFL teams have done just that..........
