Just like it's the dream of every young boy (and more than a few young girls) to play quarterback and date a cheerleader, it's every young cheerleader's dream to become a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader. CMT brings those two dreams together with their new reality series about the making of Texas' favorite rah-rah squad. (Who says men and women have nothing in common?) It's your typical tears and catfighting drama—with some "American Idol"-style humiliation of the rejects thrown in—but mostly it's about hot babes bouncing around in skimpy outfits. Even better, you can enter their online contest by editing and submitting a TV commercial for the show. Or you can just watch the bouncing. Since you aren't the athlete you used to be, it'd be a shame if you pulled something ... er, something else.
