Some video from the first two days of the swimsuit calendar photo shoot.
You can find some photos of the shoot here.
BIRDLAND – Falcons cheerleader coordinator Ms. Chato Waters and her squad left this morning for Cancun, Mexico.

Cover of the Falcons 2002-2003 cheerleader swimsuit calendar.
They will spend the next four days at the Moon Palace Resort in Cancun working on the squad’s 2010-2011
swimsuit calendar.
The Falcons last created a cheerleader calendar in 2002, back when Waters was cheering.
Of course, we’ll pass along more details when the calendar is ready for sale. The team also plans to make a behind the scenes DVD available for the public.
You can follow them this weekend through several of the team’s social media options.

REKINGBALL — Proud to say I was on the judging panel that picked this year’s squad. Very talented and athletic squad. They should do well this season.

If we’re going for double entendres, I would definitely say this gives new meaning to the Falcons campaign to “Rise Up”.

Why don’t the networks show these girls more often during the games! I think most of the decision makers for camera shots during games are gay.

With a state economy completely in the tank, they go out of the country for this photo shoot, bypassing the beautiful Georgia coast and hotels, restaurants, etc. that could use the business. Thanks Falcons. Want us taxpayers to build you a stadium, too?

Balderdash, if you’re SO concerned about helping out Georgia’s economy, maybe you should be buying this fishwrapper instead of going cheap on the internet. Get over yourself. And I believe, they plan on paying for the new stadium with hotel taxes which you, no doubt, are not contributing to because you’re holed up in North Fulton, too cheap to come downtown.

GMAN — They are. Great dancers made the squad.
Balderdash and Leopold Stotts — Come on now. Shake hands and make up. I’m sure they flew for free via their Sponsor AirTran.
C. Tampa Ironworse — I don’t believe any of the young ladies got a 3-piece with beans and rice from Popeyes this morning. (I think we have the only Airport in the nation with a Popeyes. I think that’s awesome even though I’m not into he fried food anymore.)

MOST OF YOU GUYS ARE T00 YOUNG TO REMEMBER WHEN DALLAS WAS “AMERICA’S TEAM” AND ON EVERY SUNDAY IN ATLANTA. THE CAMERA GUYS DID SHOW THE GIRLS A LOT AND CLOSE UP. THEN POLITICAL CORRECTNESS TOOK OVER AND THE TV GUYS JUST DECIDED NOT TO SHOW HARDLY ANY CHEERLEADERS IF THEY WERE GOING TO BE CASTIGATED FOR IT.

They no longer sell the wrapper where I live. When they start charging for the Internet, I’ll buy. Now, instead of just telling me to get over it, tell me where I’m wrong. Good point, D-Led. But AirTran can fly to Savannah if they want to.

Balderdash is correct, with all the scenic place in GA, why leave? Or is this a premonition of the appreciation that Mr. Blank and his Falcon staff have for the great state of Georgia? Or, just a smidge of “fringe benefits” for the ladies, due to the fact they get paid 3rd world nation wages for their work?

They get piad plenty for part-time work and they get tickets. That’s not the point. The fact that they’re getting on a plane. Not a story worthy of anyone’s time

Leopold Stotts: Why would anyone with an ounce of sense WANT to go downtown? And why would anyone from North Fulton go downtown to spend money on a hotel room? Seriously?
Maybe the calendar shoot could have been outside the Georgia Dome with each page featuring a different panhandler, drunk, or hoodlum.

Dawg hatin – ever heard of Hiawassee? Savanahh? Valdosta? Jekyll Island? PLACES IN GEORGIA. What a butter brain. And those who say they get paid a lot – DOL – what is the pay for a single game? I am under the impression it is less than $100.
