When the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens take the field Sunday for Super Bowl XLVII, they'll each have thousands of people in the Superdome cheering them on, in addition to millions of others around the world.

There are some special ladies who will be cheering the teams on in New Orleans like it's their job, however -- and it actually is (at least one of their jobs).

The women who make up the cheer squads for the 49ers and Ravens are a lovely and talented bunch, but did you realize their skills go far beyond excited exhortations and fancy dance moves?

Our friends at Bleacher Report have the scoop on the other teams that will be on the field Sunday -- and, yes, there are lots of pretty pictures.
