| Blue Bombers worried about racy ex-cheerleader pics???
Posted: 7/16/2008 10:22:14 AM | Tuesday's Free Press ( July 15/08) had a story about some ex Bomvers cheerleaders posing for assorted racy pictures causing concerns among management staff :
Winnipeg Blue Bombers management issued a stern warning Tuesday to everyone in the organization, from players to cheerleaders to water boys: When you wear the Blue and Gold, do nothing that might embarrass the organization.
The dressing down from the front office was in reference to the emergence of several racy photos featuring some former members of the team's cheerleading corps -- the Blue Lightning -- on an Internet sports site and several other web pages Monday.
The photographs, some of which had been taken down by Tuesday morning, varied in their level of indecency. In one picture, a former cheerleader is mooning the camera with the Peace Tower of the Ottawa Parliament in the background. In others, girls appeared fully nude.
Arash Madani, a spokesman for the football club, wanted to ensure the Bomber faithful the team, "dealt with the matter swiftly.
"We stick with a code of conduct that is appropriate," he said Tuesday. "We addressed the matter with the entire club and the Blue Lightning. We told them to act according to our code of conduct."
He said every member of the organization signs an agreement to follow the team's code of conduct when they join the Bombers.
Meanwhile, the Blue Lightning page on the Blue Bombers website has changed significantly since the photos surfaced. Early Monday evening, visitors were provided with a drop-down menu with links to photos, auditions, poster and appearance requests. Profiles of the individual cheerleaders were displayed on the photos page.
But by late Monday night, as the front office was scrambling to protect the squad's reputation, a stripped-down version appeared. Instead of profiles, surfers get a wholesome picture of the cheerleaders wearing team jerseys.
The pictures that featured the cheerleader outfits ( the ones I saw at least) were not racy or revealing; the "naughty" pictures didn't show any cheerleader paraphenalia.
So what's the problem here? These are ex-Bombers cheerleaders, not the current ones. The pictures showing cheerleading outfits were clean.
I quess the problem is these women were being "exploited" by the people taking & posting the pictures ( tho as adults, I'm sure the women knew what they were doing, and were compensated in some matter) and not being exploited by the Bombers organization. Some of the outfits I've seen them in at the games were more revealing than the cheerleading outfits I saw on the net site.
I have no problem with cheerleaders being on the sidelines doing their best to fire up the crowd, but don't be hypocritical about it when these same women ( ex cheerleaders, I remind you again) use the same bodies to promote themselves.
I guess it would have all been OK if the Bombers organization had gotten their cut.... | |

I guess it would have all been OK if the Bombers organization had gotten their cut.... Yeah, exactly… the organization isn’t entitled to any money so they decided to milk it for some free publicity… works every time (see msg #1).
More importantly… where are the pics? | |

| Blue Bombers worried about racy ex-cheerleader pics???
Posted: 7/16/2008 1:18:11 PM | As long as it was made clear that these were ex cheerleaders i do not see the problem , the organization should have made all cheerleaders sign a waiver stating that they were not to use the cheerleading outfit associated with the bombers for any other purpose than cheeleading.
someone simply had an idea for a promaotion that the bombers had a problem with but how about if the big brass decided to promote a calendar featuring players like the firefighters do...would it be a problem? | |

Posted: 7/16/2008 3:09:12 PM | Well, here's a couple quotes from an article in yesterday's Free Press about the pictures:
Natalie Marmus, former member of the U of M Bisons cheerleading team ( which won the "Sea to Sky International Cheerleading Competition" last year :
"The photos will be a major setback for the sport's image. Cheerleading is trying hard to be an actual and this just degrades it."
( Which is it, Natalie? If it is trying hard to be an actual sport that means it isn't a sport yet... how can it be a setback to the sport's image if it isn't an actual sport yet ?????)
"This makes it seem that all cheerleaders are is something to look at."
I've never seen the Bisons cheerleaders performing, so can't comment on their cheerleading uniforms ( I have my suspicions as to their appearance tho). But going by the uniforms the Bomber's cheerleaders wear, aren't they promoting them as something to look at? Otherwise, why not have them wear blue and gold coloured baggy sweatpants & tops.
She goes on to say "Cheerleaders are in th epublic eye, something like that makes the whole city look bad."
Hands up, fishies, how many heard about the pictures and thought
"Geez, this makes the whole city look bad!!"
Just the one member? Oh, sorry simply..single, I didn't realize you were just stretching.
Now to quote the Bomber's cheerleading coach, Dena Clark, as she stated on the group's website :
it's a group that leads "young women on a path of positive thinking, healthy living, and athletic training...helping the general public see these women as the multi-talented group they are instead of a series of body parts on display>"
OK Dena, but how hard have you (or the other cheerleaders) pushed to eliminate the extremely short skirts, the hot pants, etc etc. Are the women auditioning and trying out for a place on the squad required to wear a mask that hides their features until the selection is made? This would go a long way to show that cheerleading isn't all about appearance. After all, positive thinking, healthy living, and athletic training doesn't require a perfect compxion or a face that is unblemished.
Let's see how the cheerleaders are attired at the next couple games, and see if the skimpy outfits are upsetting to the Bomber higher-ups ...
BTW, how much are these cheerleaders being paid; it must be a heck of a lot if the Bomber organization feels they have some right to dictate their actions after they've left the squad! My understanding is they don't get paid a cent, so don't feel offended if they decide to use the beauty & body (that you had parading to support your organization ) for their own personal gain after they've left your control. | |

Posted: 7/16/2008 3:09:41 PM | Once again................the sh!t hit the fan on a slow news day.
Big Friggin Deal! A nude/semi-nude pic is just that.
I'm not impressed, as I believe that when you are involved in an organization, you must show respet and moral integrity for that organization. Otherwise you dishonor the organization, yourself and those who are close to you.
I'm with the bomber management about them not being happy. It has nothing to do with "getting a cut" or making money off of their actions. It was disrespectful to the organization, the fans (especially the kids), it was a poor decision made by a role model that children look up to, and completely disrespectful to themselves as women.
If they wish to pursue nude modeling or the porn industry, that should be their personal choice, without being costumed in a professional organization's uniform/dress. I dont think it does anything positive for anyone.

Posted: 7/16/2008 3:35:27 PM | The cheerleaders were current members of the Bombers cheerleading staff when the photos were taken. The photos are about three or so years old. O n a personal level, I think the photos are inoffensive, but there are some larger issues to be considered.
There is at least one photo that shows two women in a slightly provocative pose while wearing the Bomber cheerleader outfits. One is touching the breasts of another. Both are wearing their uniform tops.
The photos, as I understand it, were gleaned from a pay for use website. At least some of the photos can be found other places on the internet. The former cheerleaders may have been paid for the photos. At the very least whomever owns that website gets paid for people to view the images. The team's image is being used, however indirectly, to make money for someone.
I believe that the cheerleaders are subject to a personal conduct policy that would include when and where they are to wear their cheerleader outfits.
It wasn't that long ago that the concept of the "sexy cheerleader" was introduced. Their outfits were very tame by today's standards until the 1970's when the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders rose to prominence and the idea was widely copied. I recall that not too long ago the Bombers took a step back from this kind of cheerleader image to a much tamer one....remember about ten years or so ago when they had more of a pep squad approach that included male and female members? There are some very conservative longstanding season ticket holders that I am sure that the Bombers do not want to disturb. I think the release of the photos is an embarassment to the team, but it was nothing that was their fault and seems to beyond their control. Of course, as implied by an earlier poster, any publicity is good publicity. | |

Posted: 7/16/2008 6:27:07 PM | I can't post the site, but there are actually several photos that a friend sent me a link to where the cheerleaders are partially nude in their uniform. At least one is topless, another the cheerleader is in full uniform and mooning the camera.
You can't see it on the cheerleader's website right now, but one of their goals is to be 'role models'. The cheerleaders are required to do a certain amount of community service per year. And almost every year they run a cheerleading camp for young girls, and the girls will then perform with the cheerleaders at a game. By posing nude and in provocative poses, they are not exactly being good role models to young girls. This is really unfortunate, especially given the fact that there seems to be a lack of good female role models out there these days. | |

Posted: 7/16/2008 7:20:01 PM | What are the cheerleaders paid to be cheerleaders? If image is a big issue and so on then why the skimpy outfits?
I might be misremembering, but I recall reading somewhere that they don't get paid, but its the promotion thats the payoff.
True?
If the players get to slap each other on the ass, do the cheerleaders get to be slapped when they do a great cheer? | |

Posted: 7/16/2008 7:25:44 PM | Finally , something that would make me sit back and watch this sport,lol. Just kidding folks, I still won't watch sports on tv. Now, I agree, it's a black eye for the blue and gold, but it's a ex and a slow news day. Someone's always got a make a mountain out of a mole hill. I call it dirty news, kick them when they down stuff, no need for it, it's not like they are working for the bombers on payroll anyway at the time.
Now, lets look deeper into this, the person that broke the story, now I think he/she is local of course, surfing the net, hmmmm. And this is the lamest thing they could find, Give it a topping of smut and bingo, we got some news.
Anyone, that goes that distance to give a dark cloud on our city, teams, but does not have balls to bust a politician, on some old news.
People are media fearful now days, everyone except a politician, good or bad it's still free air time | |

Being a role modelis fine, but these pictures came out after they were cheerleaders, and they have no obligation/duty to act as role models when they're no longer part of the Blue Lightning.
If they want to claim to be role models, and esposuing community service & athletics, why the need for skimpy outfits? I like the outfits, but don't be hypocrites and say
" it's ok to wear skimpy clothing when you're a cheerleader for a community-owned football team, but not when you're a private citizen" | |

Posted: 7/16/2008 9:10:16 PM | well camo the way i see it...the internet just exposed the old boys club old turf...they where so smug in there big chairs cuz their was no window of oppertunity for people to expose them...not paying the cheer leaders is not kool if they expect that kind of commitment...and the equal oppertunity would put recognizable people in those uniforms...not clones of paris hilton...don't you think????
if they claim to focus on athletics why don't they look like cindy....
ya wana sell some fancy story you better represent a token to support your pile of empty words ...cuz the scores do not add up
cindy is a pro she does not need to show her skivies...did you miss them buffalo comercials or what!!! i think it is a good
" caught with your pants down momment" for the secure clowns who think the rest of us are stupid. ya wana sell some story well it only works if your the only one who writes the words...do they expect to control troy's
words too.......cuz it sure sux if they do...
how much clout does it take to control an ex players words and force propaganda threw him????? | |

Posted: 7/17/2008 4:06:07 PM | The cheerleaders don't always wear skimpy clothing for one, although I do agree that if they truly want to be positive role models for young girls they need to scale back on the sex appeal big time. Their dance routines often look much to similar to what you'd see on the stage at a strip club, not to mention their choice of music (the first home game of the season they did part of their routine to the song "Crazy Witch" {with a B}). However, the action of these women, who were bomber cheerleaders at the time the photos were taken, does undermine the goals of the Blue Lightning organization.
Also with regards to the Bison cheerleader outfits (I believe someone commented on that). The Bison's actually have two cheerleading teams. The team that went to the cheerleading competition is a stunt team, is comprised of men and women. The women usually wear tshirts and shorts to warm games and will wear long pants and long sleeved shirt to cooler games. The tshirts are fairly loose. The shorts are short, but not what I or most people would consider overly short. The outfits are definitly not sexually provocative, and would most likely not be something you would be upset seeing your teen daughter wearing out (if you had one). The dance team wears the typical cheerleader uniform (a shortish pleated skirt and a sleeveless top). Again, sexy but not overly provocative. It is possible to be sexy, and still be a good role model. | |

That was me, and I made a point of saying I can't comment on their uniforms because I've never seen them.
I'm just wondering, since the Blue Lightning cheerleaders aren't being paid, and the official word from the Bomber spokespeople is that the cheerleaders are there to promote community, athleticism, teamwork and to be role models for women.
Why don't they scrap the Blue Lightening and offer the stadium as a venue ( during Bombers games) for a different cheerleading squad from a local high school to perform? That could promote the same causes, and may be something these cheerleaders would enjoy. I realize the summer games may be a problem, with school being finished, but I'm sure the logistics could be figured out. Maybe have all the teams at a different part of the field doing their routines at the semi and final regular season games before the Bombers head for the Grey Cup ... ( Shut Up !!!!!! ) | |

Posted: 7/17/2008 10:39:35 PM | This is just silly, grown adults trying to make their way out in life.
First off cheerleaders are not making all the money, it is the ball players.
If they agreed under a written contract to conduct themselves pertaining to “NOT REVEALING” anything “fleshy” then I understand…
BUT if they are not under a specific contract…
Who are they telling grown women what to do and what NOT to do with their bodies? No one owns ANYONE. Unless I am wrong and the act that was signed in Canada abolishing slavery of all human beings with the: Slavery Abolition Act in 1833 was just a “FIGMENT” of our nations imagination…or perhaps the Winnipeg Blue Bombers owner feels that he owns their bodies.
The Bombers or the owners of the Bombers do NOT own their bodies, minds, or souls.
**Probably just a bunch of crusty people (dare I say ladies with the bodies of turnips, I am a reformed turnip) who are jealous that they do not have young youthful bodies; as these girls have in their youth. A few "TURNIPS" decided to clamp down on their “Husbands or Boyfriend’s veering eyes”. Grow da Fak Up!
‘FANATICS” of Football tend to be predominantly male, if this helps boost ticket sales and we do not loose another sports team, like we lost the Winnipeg Jets…
YOU GO GIRLS, you have my vote! You are helping generate tourism, good or bad for the City of Winnipeg, and stimulating the economy in doing so!
PS- This may come as a shock to you all, But there is a lot worse out on the “WEB” involving web Porn, and Child Porn, than a few Cheer Leaders picking up a few dollars. Perhaps boosting ticket sales for a Football team that has been in trouble in the past pertaining to ticket sales….**End of rant.

Posted: 7/18/2008 12:05:59 AM | With any uniform, there comes some kind of responsibility with it. The young lady can pose in any way, shape or form she wants.... as long as she isn't wearing something that places her within another group. If she is behaving as an individual and not wearing a uniform, who cares what she is or is not wearing. If she was wearing a Canada Post uniform, she would be in a lot more trouble.
Personally, I'd be a little ticked if the naughty cheerleaders were hanging out with my children three times a year.... as it is, I have no clue who they are and hope to not find out. Since that one, with the most photos, hasn't been with the organization since 2005, I'm going to hope that my babies did not meet that one.
Even in the school teams, cheerleaders have to honour their uniforms. The only reason why the pictures stuck out, as remotely newsworthy, was because they were wearing official Bomber gear. If they want to make money off their bodies, let them do it with a generic uniform. | |

I'm with the bomber management about them not being happy.
I agree with Sue on this one.
If ANY, cheerleader is going to wear the Blue And Gold, then they should be wearing it with dignity, pride, and most of all, R E S P E C T, to themselves, and to the Bombers organization, rather then for their own trashy advantages, or promoting pornography.
I hope, that these young woman are caught, and severely punished for their un-called for actions, of wearing the Blue And Gold uniforms of the Bombers, while promoting their little sexual fantasies.
This is not Wal-Mart, where some of the staff employees of Wal-Mart got away with posing for Playboy.
Now, back to focusing on the upcoming football game, that Bombers NEED to, and HAVE to win.
Let's just hope, that, present Head Coach, Doug Berry, has his men, in Blue and Gold, ready to do warfare, and with the well, CFL Gods looking down in favor of OUR Bombers pulling out a MAJOR WIN, over the Lions, at BC Place Stadium, or, what I refer to, as the ANIMAL ZOO, here in Vancouver.
Time to bring back those ear plugs again, that helped Bombers win the 1984 Western Final, in Vancouver, against the Lions, because, can it ever get good and noisy, I mean REAL noisy, at Animal Zoo, BC Place Stadium.
That is why, I call it Animal Zoo, because it IS, like a ZOO, in there, much like Stanley Park, but ONLY worse.
Ask, former Bomber Head Coach, Cal Murphy, he can tell ya, what it is like in there. | |

Posted: 7/18/2008 8:10:07 AM | not so fast bud.............how about the smokescreen that liguor sales does not base the value of the driving forse of placing women to draw that sales card higher(busted bubble suckers)...to avoid the human right commissions power to secure the rights of every human presented in the name of human value and the reason sports and kids are on the same page to begin with...go ahead draw the game back in and keep devaluing the reason sports was introduced to kids to BEGIN WITH...some of us see threw that sceme...
some of us respect the game but the chit pile at the top needs justice and due process...blaming a icon for being a icon is not correct....why not what...bang bang.
people are trained to a pattern of what by media coverage..the why is a deeper view of how head clowns avoid the rights of every individuals right to do justice to there humanhood...missing in this stooooooooooooooory smell the top of the chain...is a stratigic smokescreen to use people in the name of tradition instead of respecting every single human on the field and in those dang stands...
here you go......the truth is that liguor flows free when the spec is the sales of that...entertainment hires strippers to up the anti...football uses young innocents to draw that power to them...that is discusting!!!
and to avoid that responsibility as a leader of a community based team will not fly past the old mans clubs wives either...hahahah shame on you for flying past that icons rights to bust the ground for her counterparts to secure with human rights to not be used and smokescreened by tradition either...you do not have children i get that....and is why you slide past that responsibility to...
but some of us understand that the game is not about the win to the community...it is the value of the ethics for fair play that blow back our hair.
not some chit pile cup so sorry to break your bubble lil fish....the value of football to teach a community to hold youth with justice not tradition.  | |

Posted: 7/18/2008 8:51:28 AM | Ok, now tell me this then, HOW many people go to the fotball games, JUST, to watch the cheerleaders.
Wellllll, HOW MANY.
People mainly go to a football game, to watch the football game itself, do they not, let alone watching the cheerleaders.
And these people will comsume beer, because, they are THIRSTY, not because, of the cheerleaders.
Remember, this not a F' N bar or pub that we are at, this is a flippin football game that is being played at a football stadium instead.
Further more, what gives ANY, former cheerleader the legit right, to wear an outfit that has the name and colors of ANY football team on it, to perform anything trashy in it, in ANY form of publicity.
N O N E.
If she or they are caught, then severly punnish them, for their wrong doings, plain and simple.
If they want to act like little HO'S, then get the friggin h e l l out of the outfit, and wear something different, instead if you are going to be doing your trashy little stunts.
As said, before, this is not Wal-Mart, with some of their employees posing for Playboy, this is a reputable football team instead, so, knock off the TRASHY CRAP. | |

Posted: 7/18/2008 10:33:40 AM | If the Bombers were so worried about the "INTEGRITY" or Perceived
"INTEGRITY" of the cheer leaders to begin with, they would have conservative outfits still, and MALE cheer leaders...
Heck I would pay to go and see a pile of half Nekid (;-o) male dancers during half time, you never know, something may "Slip out" of their pants while they "JIGGLE"; it would be nice to see a male do the splits and not only the ladies..
**OoOo Male Cheerleaders, what do you think people? All is fair (or should be) in an EQUAL SOCIETY" pertaining to skimpy outfits.. It is after all FAIR PLAY for both sexes, or should be!
I say it is TIME for the Bomber's to cater to their female audience.... I am tired of watching guy's slap each other's butt's after a good play, while they have FULL football clothing on. They do circulate those close up photo's of them slapping each other's backsides, I view that as sexually offensive!
What is wrong with the ladies, doing, a little "Slap Tickle" with each other, seems to be a family event when the guys slap each other's butts on the field!

when you shove tradition you better be holding the justice card or your azz is smoked right off of the falking map. you stick your theory about tradition where the sun don't shine ......................let justice and the human rights commision walk in or get off the pretending you have value to children...cuz value is to business and marketing not lessons to lead our young people to stand up proud and free...
 this is for every child who has a imperfict image...for every adult who think they can own your right of passage in the name of marketing and politics...

Well, they aren't allowed to keep the cheerleader uniforms when they leave the team, so any pictures of them in the uniforms were while they were still members. Those pictures ( at least all the ones I've seen, and I've looked aren't racy or trashy. Have you even seen the ones that you seem offended by? They aren't pornographic, maybe a bit naughty or racy, but I see more skin at a public beach.
Severely punish them for their wrongdoings ??? What wrongdoings? They are adults, the pictures that are causing the commotion were taken AFTER they'd left the squad. They did nothing wrong, the Bomber higher ups are just trying to distance themselves from them, while having their cheerleading squad do the splits, various moves to flaunt their bodies to the "paying" audience, and wearing skimpy outfits.... I guess the problem is that the Bomber office isn't getting any cash from the naughty pictures revenue, even tho the EX cheerleaders are no longer their "property".... That's how they view the squad, a commodity (which they don't pay) to exploit for their profit.
If you're gonna get on a soapbox and denonunce the pictures, you should also start a petition to eliminate the cheerleaders entirely, or at least have them wear the same uniforms the players wear ( without the padding and helmet of course).
And if the squad is there to promote "athleticism, teamwork, act as role models for women/girls in the community etc etc" why aren't there any short cheerleaders? They're all cut from the same mold, with minor differences in hair and skin color. | |

I hope, that these young woman are caught, and severely punished for their un-called for actions, Not to worry, I’m sure the police are closing in on them.
We simply can’t allow women to run around disrespecting a third rate football league such as the CFL... Those kinds of actions should not be tolerated!
They should be punished by, being made to stand on the 50 yard line during the half time show and stripped of their uniforms… That’ll teach em!
do you not think this little episode has done more to raise the bombers profile than any amount of advertising they could possibly buy? Yup… and the success of the advertising campaign is directly proportional to the degree of gullibility, of the people reading the story. | |
