Miami Dolphins looking for cheerleaders in soccer-mad Brazil (Yahoo Sports)

Leaving one of the poorest cities in Brazil at 5 a.m., 20-year-old student Luciane Lima traveled from Sao Goncalo to a Copacabana hotel two hours away to join 300 women at an unusual audition in the land of soccer: Cheerleader for the NFL's Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins started auditions last week, and is targeting soccer-crazy countries such as Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Mexico. In exchange for injecting a touch of samba into the Dolphins' cheerleading team, they hope to start new lives in the United States.
