Houston Texans Cheerleaders

The Houston Texans cheerleaders perform a cheer and dance routine for the troops here at the Club Iwakuni ballroom.

MARINE CORPS AIR STATION IWAKUNI, Japan — Marines and sailors gathered to see the Houston Texans Cheerleaders perform an enthusiastic cheer routine at the Club Iwakuni ballroom.

“The performance was upbeat and encouraging,” said Lance Cpl. Rosbel Alvarado, Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 12 ground support equipment maintenance.

“I had a lot of fun.” Prior to the Club Iwakuni performance, the cheerleaders held a cheer and dance class at the IronWorks Gym where children of all ages were given the opportunity to practice cheer routines.

“I think it lifted up the morale greatly,” said Alvarado. “Everyone seemed very involved. We should have more events like these.”

The cheerleaders arrived in Okinawa, Japan where they held the tour’s first performance at Camp Hansen. After their performance at Hansen, the cheerleaders have been traveling base to base, visiting troops stationed in Okinawa.

With countless hours of traveling and little rest time between performances, the cheerleaders often have to overcome fatigue and jet-lag while maintaining enthusiastic and energetic personas during their performances.

“Because of the jet-lag it’s difficult to keep up energy, but we all encourage each other and try to keep the morale going,” said Lindsay Slott, Houston Texans cheerleader.

Elisha 'Eli' Manning New York Giants

Elisha "Eli" Manning of New Orleans, Louisiana – Mr. Manning was the number one pick of the 2004 NFL draft. In his first full season of play, Manning helped the NY Giants secure the 2005 NFC Eastern Division Title throwing 3,800 yards and 24 touchdowns. None of this is surprising given Mr. Manning’s impressive college and prep career at Ole Miss and Isidore Newman High School respectively.

At Ole Miss, Manning earned numerous academic and athletic accolades including the Maxwell Award (nation’s top player), the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award (top senior quarterback), The Sporting News Radio Socrates Award (for excellence in academics, athletics, and citizenship), and was named the SEC Offensive Player of the Year in 2003, the same year he led the Rebels to a SBC Cotton Bowl victory. Other recognitions include multiple appearances on the Ole Miss Chancellor’s and Dean’s Honor Rolls, the NCAA’s Today Top VIII Award (the highest honor awarded by the NCAA to student-athletes), and was a finalist for the Draddy Award (top student-athlete in the nation).

The Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay Packers have won twelve league championships (more than any other team in the NFL) including nine NFL Championships prior to the Super Bowl era and three Super Bowl victories in 1967 (Super Bowl I), 1968 (Super Bowl II) and 1996 (Super Bowl XXXI).

The Green Bay Packers can trace their lineage to other semi-professional teams in Green Bay dating back to 1896.

The Packers were founded on August 11, 1919 by former high-school football rivals Earl "Curly" Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun. Lambeau solicited funds for uniforms from his employer, the Indian Packing Company. He was given $500 for uniforms and equipment, on the condition that the team be named for its sponsor. Today "Green Bay Packers" is the oldest team-name still in use in the NFL, both by its nickname and by virtue of remaining in its original city.

In 1919 and 1920 the Packers competed as a semi-professional football team against clubs from around Wisconsin and the Midwest. They joined the American Professional Football Association (APFA) in 1921, the forerunner to what is known today as the National Football League (NFL).
