Washington Football Team replaces NFL's oldest cheerleading squad with coed dance ensemble following sexual harassment claims by former dancers
UK Daily Mail ^ | March 3, 2021 | Alex Raskin

The Washington Football Team is replacing the NFL's longest-running cheerleading squad with a coed dance ensemble, but the franchise is insisting that the move is part of its ongoing rebranding and not related to any accusations of sexual harassment by former dancers.

Washington began rebranding last year after dropping the team nickname, the Redskins, which many Native Americans found to be racist. The rebranding has no end in sight, and it is not known when a new team name will be announced.

Washington will not have the first coed dance team in the NFL. The Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots both have men on their cheerleading squads.

That’s a lie right there. I believe polls showed the vast majority of Native Americans weren’t bothered at all.

Caitlyn Jenner Conquers Her Fear of Swimsuits: See Her White-Hot Style

UsWeekly ^ | August 10, 2015 | Rachel Torgerson - Celebrity Style

For her swimsuit debut, Jenner opted for a white, one-shouldered monokini with intricate ties at the back. The former Olympian, 65, kept her hair in her blown-out, straight style and topped off the entire beachy look with a lace sarong and golden hoop earrings. ..."

Fascinating.

Yes. They're going for a new Guinness world record: most consecutive splits by a cheerleader squad. So far I've counted 43,283 consecutive splits! They just never seem to get tired. Amazing!

I haven’t seen a squad that rough since the “Hey Mickey” video.

I liked the “Rasta Gourmet” and Michael Richards’ “Battle Boy”.

And I had the biggest crush on Melanie Chertoff.

Yeah, she was pretty. She's in that first one where Dick goes to the beach. Video quality is poor, but it was all that I could find. The other video (the drug store) is really funny too.
