My sister posted the link on my facebook wall and I was so excited. She's not involved in cheer but even she could tell this was the real deal and not some froo froo filler story.

Even worse they want to become cheerleaders lol

Haha!! Right!! Level 1 Sr that wants to be on my L3 team. Nope!
 
The ones that got me were the ones that said (paraphrasing): sure what they do is athletic... but its still [insert degrading remark here] and not a sport.
 
Y'all those are mostly internet trolls who sit at home all day with nothing better to do than to purposefully try to cause controversy. If you feed into it, they'll keep doing it. You'd be amazed at how much it decreases if they weren't replied to...you can especially tell they're trolls by stuff like "now go make me a sandwich". Don't feed the trolls

I definitely agree...we should also take this advice for our lovely board troll :)
 
Okay I understand why you all are upset at the comments saying cheerleading is not a sport. I am equally upset about it, and I think that what these people are saying is inappropriate.

HOWEVER, I do not think it is appropriate for us to be using the argument: "Well if ____ and _____ are considered sports then cheerleading MUST be a sport". This is the same arrogant argument that others use. Do not degrade sports like baseball and golf just because you are angry about people hating on cheerleading. They are just as much sports as cheerleading or anything else.

I just don't want to see anyone on our side drop to the level of those that attack cheerleading. Stick up for our sport, but please don't degrade others.
 
It was a really good story! Man, is that girl dedicated. It's nice to see CEA Raleigh get some spotlight, i feel like K-Ville always overshadows them.

.....Oh Internet Trolls. Honestly, it's not worth reading and getting upset over. Though someone getting in a fight over Scottish kilts vs. cheer skirts was really funny. I know it was one of you!

It makes me feel better to imagine the trolls attempting a toe touch worthy of a mini level 1 team. When it really gets to me I imagine them attempting jumps to back, double fulls, and flying

Now I'm picturing a team of troll dolls trying to synchronize these skills and getting into a big troll brawl
