Why did they need a new name? What was wrong with "Saintsations?"
Because its rooted in white supremacy, perpetuates the patriarchy, objectifies women, and is both transphobic and homophobic. Not to mention it’s racist.
And whatever other woke bullshite boxes they want to check off.

She's pretty good at gold-digging though.
I don't understand why they changed the name of the Saintsations. That was a hell of a lot better name than The Cheer Krewe. LAME. Sounds like a 1st grader came up with that.
The Wokesations and Black Lives Lager would have been better replacement names for the Saintsations and Dixie Beer.

If you are unfamiliar with the Icy Hot Stuntaz, they were a white boy rap brigade from Toccoa, Georgia (population over 9,000) that gained tens of fans circa 2001 when someone accidentally posted photos of them photoshop-bling'd-out and frontin' in front of their not-really-that-tricked-out-Civics online. In one moment, the entire internet united to point and laugh.

I for one will sleep better tonight knowing that the virtue signal will shine ever brighter as a result of this stunning and brave decision.

I know an ol baw whose daughter was a Saintsation. He was embarrassed when he went to the plant and the hourly baws had her Saintsation calendar splayed and leering at it.

Pels dance team are gone too, replaced by a multi gender fully clothed “hype team”
meh they've had this sort of hype team since they were the hornets. That's not new.
No clue why they dropped the dance team though.

Serious question. Why else change it?
I assume because the play on the word sensations implies it's about looks?

The new tradition is a lack of tradition. Been watching happen in the Air Force for years.

Despite what a lot of posters are saying about it being "woke" or "pro-gay", it's pretty much the opposite.
Gayle Benson is an EXTREMELY conservative woman, very religious in her views and connections. She spoke at my daughters' high school (Dominican) and according to them, Gayle's whole spiel was more about being ladylike and chaste, rather than aspirational, e.g. "you can be anything if you set your mind to it".
Shortly after Tom died, one of the first things she did to the Pelicans dance team was take them out of hot pants-style shorts or short skirts with an underwear cover, and put them in long pants, kind of like yoga pants. I remember reading somewhere at the time, it was HER call to take them to a more conservative, "prim and proper" visual look:
Then this season, the dance team is GONE. Completely.
I went to the Saints game Thanksgiving night, and sure enough, the Saintsations are now wearing the same kind of long pants:
And now we are hearing about the end of the Saintsations and the replacement with this different kind of group, this "Saints Cheer Krewe".
Essentially what she is doing is replacing the (in her mind) "hotsie-totsie" sexpot group that started with such things as the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, Laker Girls, etc. and replacing them with the equivalent of an LSU (or other college) cheerleading squad- about half and half men and women, emphasis on acrobatics and gymnastics (stunters) and less on women doing provocative dancing in revealing outfits.
