For the past decade or so, television stations stopped recruiting journalists, and instead starting recruiting bikini models and cheerleaders to fill their sports sideline reporter slots. This fact is certainly not news, but it is interesting how one specific NFL cheerleading squad, the Denver Broncos, has produced three of these “journalists” all by themselves.
If you’re as much of a sports media nerd as I am, that you may have heard about the sideline “reporter” doing the 4th of July Hot Dog eating contest for ESPN today. It’s former Broncos cheerleader Renee Herlocker, and I’m guessing it’s a name we’re going to be hearing a lot more. Like ESPN’s #2 overall sideline eye candy Jenn Brown, she has a tramp stamp. As you can see from the bikini/lingerie pictures below.
By the way, NFL Network’s Michelle Beisner and Avalanche/Rockies in-game hostess Lauren Gardner are the other two. Click their names where highlighted for bios/pics on each of them.
I guess being a Broncos cheerleader is the new escalator to media stardom. By the way, here’s Herlocker’s Facebook fan page. She doesn’t have a Twitter account. I think she may have a MySpace page, but I’m not going to bother to link it because no one has cared about MySpace even existing since 2008.
