Although many may argue this, it IS a sport. There are actual competitions for it and, in my opinion, some of the things they do are very difficult. It is a combination of dancing, tumbling, stunting, and, of course, cheering. Many cheerleaders don't actually enjoy having to cheer at football and basketball games, and are only on the squad for the competitions. At competitions, hundreds of squads perform 3 minute routines that include the 4 staples of cheer (listed above) and work for months on perfecting what they do, just like any other sports team. Cheerleading is definitely a misunderstood sport.
Girl 1: PLEASE, cheerleading isn't hard. It's a bunch of stupid sluts jumping around shouting.
Girl 2: Oh really? You have to have a standing back tuck just to get on the squad, you have practice almost every day, you have to keep your grade above a C average, and they are able to throw people in the air and not get hurt.
Girl 1: Yeah...but still....whatever.

a sport..ha, any activity that involves putting makeup on before hand could no way be considered a sport. cheerleading is completely based upon looks. You basically have to flirt to your fans/judges to be considered a good team. There can't be two sports playing on the same court, at the same time right? Even competitive cheerleading is a joke. Whoever gets the judges the most sexually aroused wins ƒº congratulations girls. Cheerleaders are primarily used to keep people watching happy by shaking their little butts. Note: strippers do the same thing, but their at least smart enough to get paid for it. Even my girlfriend cheers for college, and she said that you have to send a picture to the coach to try out. I have nothing against cheerleaders, that¡¦s why i love watching football. whom ever thought of the whole arrangement should get some kind of reward. I watch a competitive sport, while little gitty girls prance around in their little skirts while i drink my nice cold brewsky. THE AMERICAN DREAM. You girls say how hard cheering is...its like how Models complain how hard their life is, the lack of eating, exercise, and hard positioning. From the beginning, girls join cheering to impress guys. It¡¦s a chance for girls to degrade themselves to people like me. You people say cheerleaders LEAD the fans? You know that mascots do that too right, so good job girls you degraded yourselves down to a little man in a fluffy animal outfit.
cheerleading is when little gitty girls frolicking around

Something that is often mistaken for a sport, when in reality, its not. Football is a sport, Basketball is a sport, baseball is a sport, but cheerleading is NOT. Yeah, and for your info, I'm a girl. A normal STRAIGHT girl, and I rather play football than be the dumb bimbo screaming on the sidelines jumping up and down like a retard. Only stupid skanky girls that don't mind running around like half-naked idiots become cheerleaders. Cheerleaders are the reason why the NFL doesn't let women play professional football. Women degrade themselves like this and then men think "Hmmm... Women have no talent and intelligence whatsoever, they must just be here just entertain us." Women are NOT here to entertain men. To all the cheerleaders, put some clothes on and GET LIVES.
Do I really need an example, because if I do, you must be really stupid.

The best sport in the world.
Takes energy, time, determination, and talent.
They do so much more than back handsprings.

If you need proof for that, watch "Columbus High School", "Mill Creek High School", or "Top Gun All Stars".
You'll be blown away.
Cheerleading is the best sport ever.

Cheerleading IS a sport. You think its not? WELL YOUR DUMB. you serioulsy think its all about looking like whores and doing no work. you have no idea how fucking hard it is. my high school cheerleading team practices 3 hours every single day. guess what, THATS MORE THAN ALL OF THE BOY SPORTS. we also have to do ATLEAST 300 pushups, A DAY. yeah, does any other sport do that? NO. so shut the fuck up and stop saying that all it is is flirting and shaking our asses. because, ITS NOT. it takes hard work, and dedication. as well as every other sport.

When you are being told off or spoken to by someone, and there is a person in the background nodding and agreeing with the person telling you off and repeating key words spoken by them to you.
Person 1: "What you did was very wrong!!"
Cheerleader: "VERY WRONG!!"

Person 1: "I cant beleive you could do something like this!"
Cheerleader: "UNBELEIVABLE!!"

Recipient: "Fuck off and stop cheerleading, arsewipe"
