As there are in competitive eating contests. If we combine Cheerleaders with hot dog eating then I'll watch. I would also like to stipulate that they be able to rat hole as many hotdogs as the can and add to their eating total.
The very much politically incorrect Penn and Teller even agree that not classifying cheerleading is a sport is bullsh^t. It's not about feel-good political-correctness. Matter-of-fact, the feminazis don't want it to be a sport and think the cheerleading movement is an assault on Title IX. Watch P&T cheerleading video online if you can find it. There's topless girls with pompons int it.
Definitely an interesting situation.
The powers that want to classify it as a sport want it so, primarily because they want to cut other womens sports.
That doesn't make much sense, Jay. Oh, not you saying it. Merely the fact that people advocate such a thing.
Of course, all one would have to do to shut off the debate is sponsor girls football. Which is exactly what I WANT to do.
SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

wasn't that what initiated the whole court matter?
some school wanted to drop volleyball or something, and wanted cheerleading to count towards their scholarship quota or something?
(I dunno, I didn't really pay that much attention)

That's a fantastic idea SH! One of many that just roll off your fingertips. Schools trying to make ends meet should ADD the most expensive sport and it has the benefit of totally lacking the ability to produce revenue for the school.
NOBODY, and I mean nobody would pay to go watch that shit unless the chicks are 1/2 to 3/4 naked and at least 1/2 of them were hot.
