Emphasis On Their Lack Of Value
These NFL cheerleader handbooks often emphasize to the cheerleaders how unimportant they are to the team, even if they demand unwavering loyalty and commitment. Thus, they hope to discourage them for demanding better conditions or taking any legal action. The one handbook says, “Remember, as important as you are to our organization, football is the name of the game. Fans would come to see the games whether or not we had cheerleaders. There are some great teams who do not have cheerleaders, such as the 2010 Champion Green Bay Packers. They are sold out every Sunday. Some teams who previously had cheerleaders do not now have them (Chicago Bears). Because of morality problems with their squads they decided cheerleaders were too much trouble to deal with.”
