Can I point out that historically the swastika was a sign of peace. Hitler turned it into something t fear with he's ideas of the perfect world and human race

And it's been stigmatized as that ever since. Wouldn't go near it with a ten foot pole. But then again I'm maybe especially sensitive regarding this subject.

To Buddhists & Hindus, yes it was a sign of peace, but the swastika isn't a symbol that can be "washed clean". I believe Finn Schwarz, president of the Jewish Congregation of Copenhagen & Jonathan Arkush, vice president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews said it best when they talked about the group of people trying to reclaim it as a symbol for peace. They said "But the swastika is not theirs to reclaim. That right belongs to the victims of Nazism. Most white people, for instance, understand that it would be tasteless and disrespectful for them to use the N word, and then claim they were merely trying to cleanse the word of its racist associations. That word belongs to African Americans, and it's theirs to do with as they wish. Similarly, the discussion over the swastika's fate should be led by Jews — more than six million of whom died under the Nazi flag."

I don't think Rebel knowingly chose a swastika as their logo. Sometimes you're kind of blinded when you spend so much time looking at, and creating a design. You're not able to step back and see it as everyone else does. I can see how it is supposed to be an "X" with stars coming off it, but the design is flawed and as it stands, is too controversial. Even though they probably didn't mean for it to offend anyone, it does and should be changed.

Interesting enough we just learned about the Nazi party in my Western Civilization class and we were never told that. I guess I just learned something new and right it's in time for my exam on it tomorrow! Maybe I can throw that fact somewhere in my essay about Nazi propaganda.

not botherd by the x symbol, but i am bothered by the eyeliner? gone wild and blue? filled-in eyebrows.

They work your entire body. I love the sound of groans when I tell the kids to line up

Yes!

The sound is similar to when you say "Full out!" for the 4th time.

I get that they're trying to be different, but maybe crazy eyeliner X's and giant tacky flowers aren't the way to go... And how do you get everyone's X to look the same, anyways?

It looks like a bad cut that just got sewed up and will result in a very bad scar

and furthermore what do flowers have to do with a team named Airborne?? Maybe they were trying to be Rebels by not using a bow.....hehe

Not a fan of parents in the actual gym area watching but I loved seeing them cheer on their daughters to get them to find the strength to keep going.

Question though, what do those bear crawl things work? Just arms and legs?

They are a fantastic all body exercise and are good cardio as well as a strengthening exercise

Some also say that it represents the four powers of nature earth, wind or air if you wanna get technical, fire & water

I totally understand that and I took this comment seriously! But I had to giggle at the 10 ft pole part and I really mean no disrespect

Why can't they just wear bows with maybe with their gyms colours in eye glitter? It would be much more flattering and personally if in uniform for allstar you should have a bow in your hair! It just makes a look complete

im sure that it will continue, because the coaches said that they would be back. plus, there was a filming of some sort of a showcase just last week. i think the show might take a break for a couple of weeks, and then continue on with a few more episodes to show the outcome of the changes that the coaches made. im just speculating though on how soon the show will return, but im 99.9% confident that theres more episodes for this season.
