2005 NFL Cheerleading Tour : Day 15 - Indianapolis Colts

Fantasy Football fans around the world are either incredibly ecstatic, or just plain ol' hate the world right now. And the reason resides in Indianapolis. One look at Peyton Manning's stats shows that he is no where near his torrid pace for TD passes of the 2004 season. Many fantasy football players have bet the farm that Manning could come close or surpass his NFL record breaking performance of last season. There is still a lot of football to be played this year, but even with thirteen games remaining, it seems unlikely that Manning will have another record year.

The action on the sidelines may be stronger than that of the Colts offense. That is saying something! The Colts have long been known for a high powered attack, and two years ago I ranked the Colts cheerleaders at the bottom of the league. Well, times they are a changing. The Colts Cheerleaders are an improving squad. A nifty logo, nicer uniforms, and much improved web site adds a lot to this team. Impressive veterans, such as Associate Analytical Chemist, Kristie (most impressive), and young rookies like Brittany round out the team. The profiles display many pictures of each girl, and a Cheerleader of the Week section goes into greater depth on the bios. I really like the Photos section. The pictures of the team members can be sorted by name or by game. I would also like to give a thumbs up on the hats and chaps worn during the Jacksonville game. Nice! The video section touts "everything from how the squad was built to Cheerleader Workout segments." I could not get the section to work to give it a proper review. It may be the web site, or it may be my Internet connection. Either way, the thought of it is a needed addition that all NFL squads should offer. Two Ashleys, two Megans, three Hollys, four Jens, and four Jessicas, show the need for diversity. This is a squad on the upswing, but still in the middle of the pack.

Rating 7.0 out of 10.

  1. I did get the video to work, and I think it would raise their rating significantly.
    Technically, the videos were decent quality and loaded quickly.
    As far as content goes, I looked at all the workout videos and scanned through the calendar piece.
    The first set of workout videos has some of the girls working out in uniform. Need I say more? Some unintentionally funny comments from the very earnest host as well. My favorites:
    #4 - Holly stretches. 'Nuff said.
    #8 - "That thing just raised up in a matter of seconds!" Pregnant pause. "Yes it did" (Lisa on a treadmill)
    #9 - Awesome leg curls from Kristie
    #13 - Lisa does leg curls. "How does that feel?" "It feels great." "Right."
    #17 - Holly's abs. I want a Precor V-crunch machine with Holly included!
    The "Dog & Zup" segments are a little harder to bear,2 fat clowns showing the girls some workout routines, but there were some moments.
    #1 - Great downblouses from Andrea.
    #3 - Cassandra's rear delt raise is the money shot.
    #4 - My favorite. Cassandra manages to look incredibly sexy while doing shrugs, and "Dog" tries not to stare at her ass.
    #5 - Nice downblouse of Amanda and some of the most boneheaded repartee you'll never want to hear.
    I didn't have time for the whole 22:48 of the calendar feature, but it seemed to consist entirely of the girls prancing and laying around in bikinis. I will find time.
    To me these videos were a 10/10. Please reconsider your rating.
