No Cheers for the NFL

The NFL is cracking down on a league-wide problem. No, not drugs, gambling or alcohol abuse...cheerleaders:
NEW YORK — The NFL apparently thinks its players are concerned more about sideline scoring than their coaches' game plan.

The league reportedly sent a memo to all 32 teams ordering them not to allow their cheerleaders to warm up — or do anything distracting — in front of the visiting team's bench.

CBS NFL analyst Charlie Casserly broke the story last weekend, saying there were concerns around the league that some teams specifically ordered their cheerleaders to perform in front of visiting teams in hopes of distracting them from pre-game instruction.

"Some players felt they were being a little distracted," Casserly reported.

Gimme an "S"! Gimme a "T"! Gimme a "U"! Gimme a "P"! Gimme an "I"! Gimme a "D"!

What's that spell? The NFL.
