[Flexiii_Lexiii]

The part that got me was when Madi said Jenee had already left SMOED to times before this

even though the episode doesnt explain a whole lot, clearly it was a parent decision. but it makes me question why half the team threw her under the bus when she quit and joined SE. still confused

I have no problem understanding the hurt felt by SMOED by Jenee's departure. We now know in hindsight from the video a little more than was known initially.

Initially there was very little discussed about Jenee's departure. They needed to stay focused with NCA coming up soon.

I can't speak for SMOED but from what I could tell, her team felt a sense of loss with her departure. None of them had details regarding the circumstances. She quit just prior to NCA which left them in a very tough position. The, immediately following her abrupt departure a video is posted showing her flying at CEA. I don't think the SMO'S had any clue she would be cheering at CEA. The video posted only to be followed by pictures posted of her at NCA. If I was SMOED, I'd be bitter and feeling betrayed, wouldn't you ?

SMOED is a very tight knit group of athletes that deeply care about each other, about their team, and about cheer? Why? How? Why now? They had only questions and no real answers. In their mind there was no allegiance or loyalty shown to them leaving like that. She was willing to sacrifice all that they had worked so hard to achieve. The circumstances didn't look very good.

Add to that a bunch of vocal teens that feel passionately about what they do. Factor in social media and SMOED's fan base

I *think* she meant that this event that caused her to leave Smoed has happened twice before and this time she actually had to leave Smoed.

*I'm just guessing based off what she said*

There are always 2 sides to every story. The truth is always found somewhere in the middle.

Amen to that!!

THIS completely. They are teens at the end of the day and I thought Eddie said it best in the video: they are teens, they don't understand how to handle situations like this. Teammates quit and you have no idea WHY they quit, or HOW they just leave before one of the biggest competitions of the season. And apparently she already left twice before that...it's hard to not feel betrayed when it's something sudden and unexplained like that. I just hope that since then she can rekindle her friendship with Madi and Gabi.

i don't think this is a fair assumption. madi does not say "jenee has left twice before this" she says that this has happened twice before. not necessarily saying she's left twice, possibly just the circumstances have occurred twice before.

But then she said "but it's real this time" which I took to mean "we thought she was leaving but never did, this time she really did leave"

Hmm...you are right about that, ok nevermind then disregard that point

this episode just left me more curious than before..

 

[chyeeaaa69]

As far as I understand, this was more of a coach's decision that she leave, neither her own nor her mother's. Everything is hearsay but some of the things said in this episode seem to reassure me that maybe my initial statement is true.

if thats true i think its extremely unfair of them to say "jenee's mom decided this wasn't the program for her".. if they would have just said the actual reason 2 months ago no one would ever care anymore and there would be 0 speculation..

I agree, if what I've heard is correct. Madi's statement just seems to contradict Eddie and Orby's explanation of her leaving. Idk. Whether her mom pulled her or she was kicked out, the details remain none of our business and I guess we accept what we've been given!

 

[ilikebigbows]

At worlds, a girl on SE told my teammate that she got kicked off so she came to CEA. Accurate? No idea. Rumors can be catchier than the #1 top 40 song!

 

[cheernerd5678]

If they're upset by the way it is told in the show, they can tell us the real reason, but for now it's the only public explanation we've gotten and that's what we're going to believe unless told otherwise, which I doubt will happen.
(I don't think we deserve an explanation, I'm just saying the only way to get your side of the story out there is to tell it. So if they want their side heard, they'll tell us and if not, they won't)
