Cheerleading Talent

[SicEmBaylor]

It seems there's a dearth of cheerleading talent across much of the Big XII purely from an aesthetic point of view. Let me say something that may not be overly popular with some: cheerleaders at the collegiate level should be chosen entirely based upon their looks after it's confirmed they have the most basic rudimentary cheerleading skills. Nobody is interested in the cheerleaders because of their athletic ability. The only purpose they serve is to engage the crowd and look good on camera. This bull**** that cheerleading is a sport is pure nonsense. Lines those ladies up and put them on the field based upon their looks and boob sizes. /soapbox.

I know you Texans have trouble wrapping your heads around the fact that women are capable of having a purpose beyond eye candy, but try to get with the 21st century please.

Now fess up folks, how many of you go to the game to see the athletic gyrations of the cheerleaders. I think it's other "gyrations" you focus on. And who the heck can hear 'em anyway?

SicEm should love Big 12 cheerleaders -- I bet they'd take photos with him and actually talk to him. Actual college age girls, SicEm! You don't even have to promise a big tip at the restaurant for that kind of attention!

Exactly. What other purpose do cheerleaders serve at the game aside from being eye candy and pumping up the crowd (which itself is partly due to the fact they are eye candy).

Let's be honest with ourselves -- nobody cares about how athletic these girls are. They need to be enthusiastic, cute, and capable of some basic cheerleading moves. That's it. If the choice is between someone who is hot but an average cheerleader or a fugly girl with amazing cheerleading/athletic ability -- go with the hot one.

Disagree, that's what the Pom squad is for. Pom is all eye candy. Cheerleaders are legit athletes. We've won nationals the last 3 years I believe and those girls are legit.

No one cares about "wrestlin"

with oil? maybe...

Cowboy. Legit athletes rarely wear chaps over bikini bottoms. Unless you'd include pole dancing as a sport.
And, come to think of it, I would.
Hell, With the Olympics in Brazil this next year we should all work hard to include it as a demonstration event!

I'm not saying cheerleaders aren't athletes. I'm not even saying they shouldn't compete in competitions. I'm saying they shouldn't be chosen for sideline duty based on their athleticism. It should be based on their looks.
