So here's something you don't see every day: A 38-year-old cheerleader. Ravens pompom poofer Molly Shattuck is a mother of three, and she's living her lifelong dream of being a cheerleader on a squad in which the average age is 15 years younger than her. Inspirational story, right? Yes?

Uh, kinda. She is the wife of Mayo Shattuck, the chief executive of Constellation Energy, a Baltimore-based Fortune 500 company and, incidentally, one of the people who helped sell the team to its present owners. She claims the nepotism had nothing to do with her position on the Ravens cheerleading squad. Right.
