An intrepid reporter for ThePostGame.com thinks NFL players have it too easy these days after the new CBA lightened up their work load. He also argues that the ladies shaking their pompoms to Britney Spears on the sideline at the Linc may be the hardest working athletes in football.

I'm issued a pair of pompoms and get instructed on how to "use my
swagger" as I stride across the dance studio in a line of girls, shaking
my shoulders and chest in a grotesque parody of the strut that comes as
second nature to the cheerleaders and is enjoyed by many a football
fan.
One other observation: apparently cheerleading is just like every other sport as Rogers was told, "Don't overthink it."
Just let your hips and pompoms takeover, obviously.
