They blow-out their ACL’s all the time and a couple of ‘em have broken their necks, so yeah, it’s a sport…
Unlike golf, which is a nice walk spoiled. ( )

The year after I finished HS, they ok’d male cheerleaders since most colleges in area already had them.
They got 2 of the best weightlifters for the positions since it required lifting several of the 120-125lb girls about 75-100 times a game.
With some of the tumbling routines the girls do…….better than Olympics.
Anyone think that “athlete” is in the eye of the beholder?

Hell ya it’s a sport.

I’m an old fart Conservative from way back. I have seen plenty of cheer squads perform, and there’s no way you can tell me that those girls aren’t superb athletes, and that it’s not a sport. It is. If golf is a sport, and sailing is a sport, then so is cheerleading.
