Break Out the Pom-Poms, It’s Time to Cheer for Sexy Friday
Friday, November 28th, 2008Make no bones about it: Washington, D.C. is an ugly city. Oh, not the city itself — L’Enfant’s vision for a noble capital city is wonderfully realized with wide avenues and stately marble buildings. I’m talking about the people.
The old saw of “Hollywood for Ugly People” is all too true. The only people who might be superficially attractive there are the collar-popping set: uptight bitches in pearls and cocky jackasses in the douchebag uniform of khakis, blue blazers, and floppy “punch-me” haircuts. Want an idea of how ugly DC is without the eyesore of going there? It has the highest percentage of sports bloggers per capita of any major American city.
Oh yeah, DC: you ugly. You ain’t got no alibi.
All this makes the existence of the Redskins Cheerleaders that much more remarkable. They are wildflowers growing through the cracked asphalt of a vacant lot. Like the duck-billed platypus, they are mysteries of nature, miracles of evolution, creatures too confounding and perfect for scientists to explain. And there’s a whole lotta evidence of that after the jump.
