Please Keep Six Feet Between You And The Cavs Dancers
Currently, in the Ohio (of course) legislature, there's a bill attempting to define what constitutes a strip club and how they should be governed (for example, they're considering not allowing dancers to perform after midnight and instituting a six-foot buffer between dancer and patron). But yesterd...
Get The Cheerleaders ... Out Of My ... Brain ...
There's a certain sublime beauty in the notion that the FBI is investigating an anonymous letter writer to ESPN and ABC who was complaining, of all things, about cheerleaders....
MSG Pulling No Punches In Dance Skater Lawsuit
You might remember, from a while back, a lawsuit involving Madison Square Garden and former Rangers City Skater Courtney Prince, who claims she was fired for reporting a sexual harassment with a Garden employee. (The employee tried to talk Prince into having a threesome, which, somehow, didn't work....
Someone In The Reuters Photo Department Is Having Some Fun
Last week, the Denver Broncos held open auditions for women to join their cheerleading team. Two hundred and fifty women tried out for 34 slots. One of them was this woman....
Get Out To The Poles And Vote!
In the midst of all this "Can we vote for Mark McGwire for the Hall of Fame?" business, we ask with metaphorically raised eyebrow: If an NBA cheerleader has had any work done, should she be allowed to be voted into the All-Star Game? (Just asking. We're not even that curious, actually.)...
At Least She Was Cheering for The Right Team
One of USC’s spritely cheerleaders must have decided that since she was only scheduled to be seated at the bottom of the pyramid, there would be no harm in showing up for a nationally televised game without the protection of any kind of female undergarmets. I can only hope that she steered clear of ...
Perhaps She Has Chosen The Wrong Collegiate Extracurricular Activity
The M Zone takes a moment away from screaming at the heavens and cursing Allah to bring us this video, from the USC-UCLA game Saturday — way to step up, Trojans, by the way — and the famous Unable To Figure Out When Is, In Fact, The Correct Time To Cheer cheerleader. She has a tendency to strike dur...
Hirshey Quickie: Soccer Cheerleaders In The MLS
David Hirshey writes regularly about soccer for Deadspin....
This Is Probably Why The Food Network Is Always On
The M Zone points out a rather disturbing trend it has noticed with the Michigan cheerleaders: They're all dressed like soccer moms!...
When Male Cheerleaders Attack
We'd like to congratulate THE Ohio State University for their convincing victory over Texas on Saturday night. We are also pleased that the Buckeyes waited until 2006 to beat the Longhorns, rather than 2005; last year's game was in Columbus, this one was in Austin and that meant all fires and riot...

Presenting the next member of the inaugural class of the Deadspin Hall Of Fame ......
Deadspin HOF Nominee: Renee Thomas And Angela Keathley
We were actually at a wedding the night before the Carolina Panthers bathroom rendezvous story broke, and by the time we woke up that Monday November morning, we felt helplessly behind on the story. We had a fear facts would cause the story to peter out by the time we caught back up....
Our Near-Cameo In The Lesbian Cheerleader Non-Trial
It was just last November that Renee Thomas and Angela Keathley, the Carolina Panthers cheerleaders, were arrested after their little bathroom escapade. In January and March, Keathley and Thomas, respectively, pled out to avoid jailtime and agree not to make money off the case. (Hence, no Playboy sp...
The Most Famous Buzzsaw Cheerleader
So here's the best story we've heard all day, even though it's only new to us. If any of you out there, like us, religiously watch "The Office" — we even watch the repeats — you're familiar with Phyllis, the portly saleswoman who knits and is happy in love with Bob Vance, Vance Refrigeration....
Maybe They Should've Done This Before The Free Agency Period Started
The Boston Celtics have finally gotten around to putting together their first-ever dance team. Apparently, they're just going to call them the "Celtics Dancers," which is unfortunate. I was holding out hope for something like "The Paul Pierce Pleasure Crew," or "The Girls of Scalabrine's Weenie." ...
How Not To Run A Cheerleading Squad
As Every Day Should Be Saturday put it, this is a story that's best read while listening to the "Benny Hill Show" music....
It's So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday
It is tragic when the grandest of epics end with a whimper, but, alas, when we are blessed with the sublime, it is best not to madden one's self with laments of an ultimately unsatisfying climax....
We've Got Spirit, Yes We Doooooooooo ...
College cheerleading, an object of ridicule since it was discovered that our President did it, has new respect in our eyes. Southern Illinois basketball cheerleader Kristi Yamaoka, who fell 15 feet off of the top of a human pyramid onto her head on Sunday, suffered a chipped neck vertebra and a co...
The Whole SYSTEM Is Out Of Order!
Oh, how nice it is to take a trip to the halcyon days of yesteryear, to revisit — again ... and again ... and again — our old friends Renee Thomas and Angela Keathley, the Carolina Panthers lesbian cheerleaders. (Honestly, it's so warm having them back in the news again, like going back and visiti...
Vroom-Vroom-VROOM!
Well, once again a religious group is threatening our constitutional right to admire a different NBA cheerleader in a bathing suit every month. The American Decency Organization is hopping mad at the Detroit Pistons for a recent team calendar which features members of the Pistons dance team in sk...
