Cheers for the NFL
I’m with the NFL cheerleaders all the way. I often don’t understand why a young woman would want this job. But that’s not my judgment to make. The NFL has dragged its feet on domestic violence criminal behavior and concussion issues related to its players, so this is just one more thing a big thuggish macho organization is being called on.
Billion dollar clubs with multi-million dollar players pay peanuts to these cheerleaders. They are placed in situations where drunkenness and groping are common, and where they are paid for appearances while clubs are making money from them. The must sign NDA’s, follow stringent rules—much more stringent than players or coaches or owners. And they must smile through all of it.
How could such a medieval system still exist? The simple abuse of power.
