Just Don’t Blame the Cheerleaders
Fornelli’s better half over at Foul Balls picked up on a report from Charley Casserly Sunday. Casserly said on Inside the NFL that cheerleaders will be restricted to only certain on-field locations so as not to be as big of a distraction:
No longer will [the cheerleaders] be allowed to warm up in front of the visiting team locker room or do their stretching in front of the visiting team locker room and they can’t go in the tunnel! The reason? Some players feel they were being a little distracted.
I could be wrong, but I always thought the cheerleaders were there for that exact reason. Maybe that’s why they’re trying to move them out of the way. I guess they’re trying to avoid future Jake Plummer situations. Nice job, Panger.
