Cardinals Cheerleaders Prepare for Big Audience Yet
Cardinals Cheerleaders Make Whirlwind Preparations for Biggest Audience Yet
The Arizona Cardinals cheerleaders have prepared dance routines to five new songs, adjusted their beauty regimen to a humid climate and traveled to Florida for their biggest game yet, Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa on Sunday, the Arizona Republic reports.
The 28-member team, made up of women who work as engineers, mothers, teachers and students off the field, toured Raymond James Stadium on Friday to see where they would be performing.
Team captain Marcie (whose last name the Cardinals will not release for security purposes), an electrical engineer, told the Arizona Republic that the whole team is thrilled to be part of the Cardinals' first trip to the Super Bowl.
"It's almost overwhelming," she told the Republic. "We're just so proud to be part of this."
The team had only two weeks to adapt their best routines to songs chosen by the NFL such as No Doubt's "Hey Baby" and the Beatles' "I Saw Her Standing There."
Wild Thing's comment.......
The Steelers don't have cheerleaders, I think all the teams should have them. It makes it nice and also they do a lot for our troops and many of them make tours to visit the troops at Bases here at home and also where the troops are deployed.
....Thank you Darth for sending the article to me.

I think they should too. Cheerleaders are the morale boosters of the team. Every team needs encouragement and pretty girls are the best kind! Who wouldn't want to look at a girl in a short skirt who looks like a model? And to heck with those who says it's exploitation of women. No, it's not. If they can dance, have the body for it and enjoy, more power to them. It's their life, not anyone elses.
We are looking forward to the game tonight. Wonder what Budweiser commercial they'll have this year to top last year's.

Last year, cheerleader pics were approved by Nick. Are these "Nick Approved" pics?

My GIANTS, like the JETS, don't have cheerleaders. The Dallas Cowbabes are simply the best and they have to be for God's Team! So glad Dallas Cowboy Split End Bob Hayes - Bullet Bob #22 - made into the NFL Hall of Fame.
Before he died he turned his life around after doing some time... It's never too late!
Dandy Don Meredith to Bob Hayes = Airpower!

I knew there was a reason I wanted the Cardinals to win.

Cheerleaders are the best part of a lot of games.
If these cheerleaders are "exploited", they sure are happy exploited women.
I am also looking forward to the commercials. Budweiser always has the best ads, especially at Christmas time. The commercial they did several years ago of the returning soldiers in the airport terminal is one of the best ads ever.
