Time to watch The Longest Yard again

Male cheerleaders used to be common at colleges

Boys can be athletic too, I guess 😎

Play stupid games... Most people would take a presidential pardon and go home. And then there's this guy.

Why did he try to do this tho? Isn’t the FBI basically trumps because of Kash Potato?

"Kash Potato" . . . snicker.

"only the best . . . "

Someone alert Will Ferrell, STAT!!!

Rock-'n'-Roll baby 👶!

OMG...I didn't know I needed this in my life!

In the meantime. #Epstein #EpsteinTrumpFiles

About time the NFL caught up with High Scholl and Collage cheer programs.

If that makes them cancel their season tickets, they weren’t there to watch football. They were there to ogle young women in short skirts.

Progress people, progress. If progress didn’t happen, you wouldn’t be able to watch the game in color, playback in real time and all that other fancy tv stuff you can do now.

Ronald Reagan (Eureka College), Dwight Eisenhower (West Point), George Bush (Yale), Jimmy Stewart (Princeton), Samuel L. Jackson (Morehouse College), Kirk Douglas (Amsterdam HS), Franklin D. Roosevelt (Groton School), and Trent Lott (Ole Miss) were cheerleaders.

It must be hell waking up everyday and having to find something that has always happened to be outraged about... Best not tell them about Texas A&M either...🤣

Before they went full-Nazi, they LOVED George W. Bush, and he was a cheerleader, as was their previous god, Ronald Reagan. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Franklin D. Roosevelt also were cheerleaders.

As a Bears fan, I'd be happy to have the Honey Bears back in any form - all female, all male, a mix - whatever. Change the name or don't, just get them on the field @chicagobears00.bsky.social @chicagobearsnews.bsky.social

Poms and everything? Nice.

Guys go to college on athletic scholarship for “cheer”. How is this even noteworthy?

My high school had male cheerleaders, 1966-69. Tossing girls here and there requires strength!

Ummm... male cheerleaders are not new.

MAGA is creepy weird!

And yet, outside of professional sports, male cheerleaders are a staple. Gay, straight, or in between, is there anything sexier than a guy who's flexible and has enough core strength to lift and hold someone else?

And they complain about us being sensitive!

That said, Trump was not a fan of Reagan's or Bush's policies.

That being said, Trump tries to belittle everyone to make himself feel important. He is after all a total narcissist.

JFC, what doesn't upset these motherfuckers?

Since when is it news that there are male cheerleaders? I remember male a cheerleaders back in the 90’s…

George W. Bush was a male cheerleader in college.

Nothing but respect for these kings. I feel cheered. Also. I looked into it, and it turns out that organized cheerleading started as an all-male activity in the 1870s. And it was turned into an all-female activity in the 50s for the express purpose of sex appeal. Which, I think, sucks.

Like this is the most important thing going on right now. Priorities conservatives, priorities. There have been male cheerleaders for god knows how long.

George Bush was a cheerleader

Assholes with nothing else to do. Did they have a meltdown over the lady umpire in baseball this week. Her new job. Ignorant hypocrites. If they can do the job they should be able too. I forget, did they have a meltdown over males in nursing , because for so long that was a womans job. Morons.

Do male MAGA supporters boycott themselves? They’ve been male Trump cheerleaders since forever.

📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Maybe they're afraid of their friends thinking they'rd oogling the cheerleaders

The snowflakes have been threatening to "boycott the NFL" for years. Doesn't look like their empty threats have had much impact on the ratings...

To be fair, they are probably worried they may accidentally wack off to one of the male cheerleaders.

I say congratulations to the male cheerleader. My boyfriend was a cheerleader

Well, of course they are. 🤣

Do republicans not watch college football?

And this is how regressive gender norms hurt cishet men. Welcome to the party, boys!

An accurate modern translation of "Conservative" is Enemy of Progress.... they are the dark ages incarnate. and we need not comply.

Everytime an actual important issue (no more jobs report) hits the news - conservatives pivot to LGBT!

But, but but he has good jeans 👖

Some people just can't live and let live...

This has been a thing in the NFL for several years. Just another fake hype thing adding to the manufactured cultural wars as they attempt to eliminate more freedoms and liberties.

The Spartans, Craig and Arianna! Actually a long history behind male cheerleading in High School and College.

Back when my father was in high school, all the cheer leaders were guys. There was something of a revolt when they let a girl into the cheer squad.

Nice

The men anchor the pyramid.

Good riddance. There are non-bigots who will happily buy their season tickets.

Huh, wasn't this already a thing in some squads? Why are they upset about this now?

Some? Every competitive cheerleading squad in America has almost an equal number of men and women.

I only said some because I didn't want to generalise. If male cheerleaders have already been a thing for ages, why are conservatives getting bent out of shape over this?

To totally generalize - because they're easily manipulated into culture war nonsense while the billionaires run away with the money. -Or- Because they're stupid. Although it is saying the same thing. Just one is a bit nicer I guess. But I'm about all out of nice for these chuckleheads.

Doesn't take much to make conservatives have a meltdown.

Not sure why they are melting down. TN Titans have had them for a few years and the addition has improved the quality of the routines. They can now do actual cheer stunts.

Trent Lott was a male cheerleader. So much insecurity with today’s gop.

How long will it take for Trump to weigh in with his "demands"?

I bet if they added 13 year old “scantily clad” cheerleaders, the conservatives would be cool with it.

WTF is their problem. The sun will still rise in the east, and set in the west. Life will still go on. Who watches cheerleaders while the game is playing. They are there to entertain. If you're only there to stare at cheerleaders ass and boobs than your wasting money and need professional help.

I love it and the boys are very talented

and all those years of wearing a camp outfit too in his only memorable role

Moving pedophile Ghislaine Maxwell to Club Fed? BFD.

"Enthusiasm is women's work." 📣 - a conservative (probably)

Did they hire Sparky Polastri? youtu.be/oha7hSlKr2g?...

Haben die mal wieder ihre eigene Sportgeschichte vergessen? Die ersten Cheerleader waren doch alles Männer. Frauen kamen doch erst später?

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ for sure … I can’t stop laughing at them 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bravo to the Vikings 👍

ba hahahahahahaha god they make me sick. How shitty must their lives be?

So-called "conservatives" (really, reactionary fascists) are afraid of everything. They're afraid of varied skin colors, afraid of gay or trans people, afraid of women who don't cower when they yell, and most of all they're afraid of people who don't back down. They're cowards. Treat them as such.

Not as many women for the boomers to fap to during halftime. 😂😂😂😂😂

GW Bush was a cheerleader, dont they remember that?

Correction. Dumb snowflakes.

That's not necessarily a bad thing. They're often safer in melted down form.

I’m sure some well Deserving white gurl is in tears and teaming up with The heritage foundation for a law suit. Not realizing she was just not good enough.

Not a cheerleader!

THE most easily triggered creatures on this planet... Self descibed, 'conservatives'🙄 They're barely braced, walking,rat traps.

Here’s what I don’t get: As a female football fan having watched female cheerleaders perform for all these years, why are men so sensitive about this?

Omg, they’re so peppy and CUTE! MNPLS makes me so proud.

Also: fuck republicans. Let them cancel. Leave the seats for joyful, fun people.

What's the problem MAGAts? He NOT trans at all

I thought most cheer squads had men on them. My uni back in the 1980s had male cheerleaders. One lived on our resident floor and was a real ladies man.

shut up twink

They had an epic meltdown over a cartoon candy wearing sensible shoes. And over colorful flags.

Do you think ticket prices will go down? I'd love to support my team in person!!

My opinion of their adding male cheerleaders:

They are just concerned because men don’t have the strength to hold up the girls when they do pyramids and stuff. Men are notoriously bad at lifting up other humans. That is a woman’s job.

Big whoop.. my high school had a co-ed cheer team.. just as many male as female and that was in 2005

Don't they realize college cheerleader squads have guys in them? Oh wait...never mind.

6 decades ago my brother was a cheerleader for a all boys Catholic school. No , he wasn't gay , he was too small to play football. Conservatives would have died.

The Eagles have had a male cheerleader for a few years now. This is not a big deal. I thought they were already boycotting the NFL over something else that was petty so what do they care?

1/“Although cheerleading is today predominantly associated w/femininity, original cheerleaders were men. Cheerleading was connected to the emergence of gridiron football at Ivy League colleges/universities in the US in the mid-1800s, & the growth & formalization of cheerleading paralleled football.

2/ While women were permitted to be on cheerleading teams, yell leaders were predominantly male up until World War II. With “the men going off to war”, women filled the role on the sidelines.

3/ In 1949, Lawrence “Herkie” Herkimer was asked to administer a cheerleading educational clinic at the Texas Teacher’s College (now Sam Houston State University).

4/ The clinic drew 52 cheerleaders, which prompted a second clinic which had 350 cheerleaders in attendance. Herkie created the first cheerleading training organization

Once again....HISTORY matters. How's that for debunking the myth that cheerleading is only for women!! usacheer.org/history-of-c...

Gooooo Minnesota! 💙💙💙💙

My God. Have these people nothing better to do? I know this is pro ball but male cheerleaders have been around forever. JFC!🙄

Good...

It's about time athletic and gymnasticly inclined young men came out from behind their mascot costumes!!

literally conservatives

I like how even the demons he created look like they're saying "is thay dude ok? He doesn't seem ok."

Khristian Konservative Kult…. Overthrowing the government

Meanwhile, their browser history says they like it really...

So let them melt down. Who gives a flying shit.

My WWII vet and fireman grandfather was a cheerleader in 1930-something. I guess that’s one thing they forgot about back when we were great.

Awesome 😎

These conservatives are living in a cosmic bubble. My high school had male cheerleaders in rural Indiana in the 1970s.

George W. Bush was a cheerleader in college.

I respect the Vikings if they did this, knowing it would upset conservatives.

Have then never seen college football?

THEY'RE AFRAID OF MEN PERFORMING OUTSIDE THEIR EXPECTATIONS. THAT'S CONTROL. 🏳️‍🌈

Nobody hates others and whines about it like a conservative.

Their #1 talent.

Snowflakes that are plagued by a severe case of omniphobia. They are like #WadeDuck from Jim Davis's U.S. Acres. Which aired alongside Garfield and Friends back in the day.

Certainly it screws up their fantasies. VOTE.

These guys can DANCE! Wow! And that, somehow, is very *threatening* ! H'mmm ... "Interesting ... veeery interesting."

Male cheerleaders aren't new. These people are 🤡s.

They never been to any college games?

If you've seen Cheer, it makes sense to have males on the cheer squad. But if they are just waving pom poms around... 👎 to male cheerleaders (unless they are catching flyers)

Tolerance anyone? I AM SO TIRED OF THE HATE!

Tolerance?? Why settle for that? Why not go for acceptance and embracement (if that's the word).

Trying to say…I am all for the male/female designation for positions to go away! I AM ALL FOR A MALE CHEERLEADER! When will there be a female quarterback? When will this sexism go away?

Broflakes.

What does Leviticus have to say about cheerleaders, I wonder.

Maybe now some folks on the waiting list can buy Vikings season tickets! Some wait years!

What do you expect from the klan that melted down over a tan suit?

Franklin D. Roosevelt was a cheerleader in his time at Groton School. He was also a member of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity and the Fly Club while at Groton. While not a standout student or athlete, he did become editor-in-chief of The Harvard Crimson.

George Bush was a cheerleader....

Unfortunately, this bunch doesn't care about facts.

Always cite them anyway. Speak up.

Before setting a low bar for the Presidency that is still astonishingly higher than the current one could ever attain.

As was Robin Williams.

Yes, George W. Bush was a cheerleader. He served as the head cheerleader during his senior year at Phillips Academy, a boarding school in Andover, Massachusetts, according to Wikipedia. He also was a cheerleader at Yale University, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history.

There have been male cheerleaders for a long time, especially in colleges.

The last Republican president before Trump was a male cheerleader.

They'd probably say that is an 'alternative fact.'

Don't you know? Only their facts are alternative, everything else is fake news and leftist lies

Don’t forget Trump’s personal cheerleader:

Not fags 😄

There have literally been male cheerleaders longer than there have been female cheerleaders. It used to only be men.

Male dancers too. What’s the difference? I loved it!

And they call *US* triggered 🙄

To FN Bad of course if it were their son they would be singing a different tune.

Twelve teams will have male cheerleaders this season. An Article I read said MN Vikings will have two.

It is much more strenuous and dangerous than any sport but football. Males lift and toss people

Anyone who knows about cheer knows that the UofM dance and cheer teams are the best in the world. And include men.

Swingers rock - rock-'n'-roll baby!

In the 1920's cheerleaders were men .

y’all are missing the point. the two men are on the “women’s” team. duh male cheerleaders have been around forever - but in this capacity, in the NFL, no they have not lol. these two are absolute divas and this is a powerful statement for gender equality in sports

The only people I can think of that feel "endangered" by this are the ones, who are not sure, who lives in their own skin

Of course they are.... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

there have always been male cheerleaders as long as ive been alive, especially in college

It is tiring how often republicans get offended over literally everything. Even very common norms seem to piss them off. I think they get offended if they can’t jerk off to whoever is in the sport or in this case whoever is doing cheerleading. I feel they hate penises more than “the leftists.” Lol

The amount of "men" that refuse to do basic ass hygiene because they say its "gay" is way too many. They are all closeted gay men, they cant deal eith it so they should out. That's the only explanation

I legit scrub my ass anytime I have to go. I would panic if I couldn’t clean myself. I knew a man who wouldn’t touch himself to get off or to pee because it is gay apparently. Also knew a guy whose underwear was dirty a particular way… the stripes were not the flag here. Lmao

Ewwwww, its so fucking gross. Im of the school of these ppl need culling

Trump has given them free range to be the little bitches that they are. Noone in maga is "tough" they are insecure and think that talking shit is toughness

They project it onto the left all the time. They’re always offended so they claim we’re “triggered” all the time. It is ironic they keep saying “facts don’t care about your feelings” all the time.

Its all projection, but no one is buying their bs. Anyone who says things like that need their hard drive checked

Yes, their contagious.

Did people just forget that male cheerleaders exist.

Pretty sure some proper fans will replace them!

Jokes on them! My Uncle, many, many, many years ago was on the Cheer Squad at his high school & then in college. At that time many of these groups did gymnastics on sidelines, like building pyramids, etc. Bet parents of the conservatives protesting this had boys/men on their cheer squads too! Haha!

back in the day, the Minnesota Vikings cheerleaders were simply one of the high school cheerleading squads.

My guy in the middle is WERKING IT! Yaaasss!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

In 1979, we had male cheerleaders. Didn’t everyone?

We did in my high school in the 70s

In fact, we also had powder puff football, where the girls played football and the guys cheered, wearing traditional female cheer uniforms.

I got flattened playing powder puff by a girl who grew up with brothers. Lol

Poor triggered babies. It must be awful to be so sensitive like that.

It takes a real man to ignore the constricted MAGAt view of masculinity and instead do what he wants to do.

Genuinely confused by this one. Explain it to me like I am Australian 😎🏝️ Haven't male cheerleaders been around for over a hundred years? Two of your Presidents that I can remember (Reagan and Bush) were cheerleaders, I'm sure there were others. P.S. Just googled it, Ike and FDR also.

Who wants to tell them about how nearly all competitive cheer teams have men on them; and, that there are separate men's and women's divisions, because contemporary cheering has always been mixed gender?

Sue Sylvester ended up being president

Ooo! Eye candy for all!

1. What would they say if the base of the pyramid is done by girls with noticeable biceps and bulging thighs? 2. We’re still waiting for mucho white men to show up at fields and orchard to do backbreaking work for less than minimum wages. Why are these pretentious snowflakes picking on cheerleaders?

We had male cheer leaders in high school in 1973. This ain't new.

FFS

GO POKES! okstate.com/sports/cheer...

Texas A&M www.tamu.edu/campus-commu...

Any word on Sydney Sweeney’s thoughts?

Ridiculous. My uncle Richard was a high school cheerleader in the 1940s. A lot of boys were.

Conservative men have a strong sexual attraction to men and want to avoid everything that reminds them of that. Like men cheerleaders.

Interesting as George W. Bush was a cheerleader in high school and college. He was head cheerleader during his senior year at Phillips Academy, a boarding school in Massachusetts. He also served as a cheerleader at Yale University, where he was a member of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity!

Hmmm...wasn't George W. Bush a college cheerleader?

Welcome to the real world snowflakes. We’ve had males on the Carolina Panthers squad for at least 2 years (probably longer but I’ve lost track) and they are awesome. So tired of the “outrage” over everything!

Lol. Male cheerleaders have been a thing in college for at least 50 years.

It's a threat to their sexuality. While oogling the girls, the dudes might awaken some latent "feelings".

GodDAMNED snowflakes.

What don't they have a tantrum about?

Presidential pedophilia apparently 😅

Not trans?

Oh no, the scandal. The only thing wrong with those conservatives is that there are one or 2 less scantily clad girls to ogle over.

The really stupid thing is that, when actually at a game, they're too far away to see unless you're right at the front. On TV, they're hardly shown because the game and adverts are the primary viewing. Half time show is adverts interrupted by a review of games by pundits. Nothing else.

Exactly, it's faux outrage just for the sake of it. Who cares who dances, as long as they can dance and do the moves.

Now they can't look at women and get a boner. Oh, the humanity!

🤣💙💯

Getting angry that some of the cheerleaders are male is effectively admitting you are a sexist who considers the dancers’ purpose to be only eye candy 🤦

That’s funny - Texas A&M has always had male cheerleaders, called Yell Leaders. 🤷‍♀️

Ahem. Cheerleading began as an ALL MALE activity

Look SOMEONE has to be the base of the pyramid.

I think "Shitflakes" is a more appropriate term.

These are the same people who throw fits when female Olympians want to change their uniforms to be less revealing.

Yup. They're always victims.

I don't see why not, when F1 was facing a backlash over Grid Girls, I think it was Spain, had Grid Guys one year

WTF!!!!!!!!!! NOW TWO GUYS ARE LIVING OUT MY DREAM JOB!!!!!!!!!

The team collected their money months ago. No one is canceling shit.

More teams should do this. Why not objectify men if we're doing it to women already??

Skol Vikings, and Skol Vikings cheer team FTW! 🙌. They’ll be great 😁👍!

Fuck conservatives.

No thank you.

The Seahawks have had male members of our dance team for years....

There have been male cheerleaders at our local university basketball games .. and I applaud them for showing their school spirit and always performing with big happy smiles.

Male cheerleaders aren’t even a new thing…

Wait till they learn about men in ballet

Male cheerleading is a legit thing in competition. They're the ones holding up the other in those complex & dangerous aerial configurations. Pretty impressive showings of strength & coordination. Gotta admit tho, the tiny pom poms & shorts are a bit odd looking. 🤣 youtu.be/pCBNrG0ylV4?...

🏳️‍🌈🤘

Way to go Minnesota!♥️🍷💋
