In 1985, the Chicago Bears released the Superbowl Shuffle. The song was a hit, raised tons of money for charity, and even got a Grammy nomination. But most importantly, it spawned a new genre--NFL rap. Plenty of other teams tried to replicate the Bears' musical success, but most of them came up short and looked, well, really, really gay. Twenty years later, they seem even more ridiculous, which of course only makes the videos even more popular. Leading up to this year's Superbowl, Douglas Caballero and the Daily Fix count down the Top 3 Most Homoerotic Videos of NFL Teams Singing and Dancing.
