I never said cheerleading was harder than dancing. Im just saying cheerleading is not as easy as everyone thinks and it IS a sport. When you stunt and do the jumps you need to work and build up ur muscles for it just like any other sport, so it is considered one.

Anyways.. cheerleaders dont ONLY smile and cheer at games. And think about it.. without cheerleaders, would there be as much cheering at games?

wow.. one person that actually agrees with me.. thank you _smile.gif

Well, from what I know, cheerleaders do not dance at football games. They sit there or cheer with their fake smiles. And cheerleading is harder than dancing? Okay what kind of dancing are we talking about first of all? Breaking? Ballet? Hip hop? Breaking takes a lot of effort than cheerleaders. Ballet? Pointed toes and all that jazz. I'm not saying that cheerleading is bad, but I just think dance is waay better.



I don't consider cheerleading an actual sport.

Did I ever say cheerleading was harder then dancing.. ummmm NO... so dont say I said something when I didnt.
All i said was .. its harder than it looks.. and then what people think.

You think its not a sport? well.. look up sport in the dictionary then and learn a thing or too.. and stop being so close-minded stubborn.gif


[EDIT]
sorry for double posting.. my computer is being weird blink.gif

dancing.

because i cant stand the screaming and cheering from cheerleaders...

and besides theres so many types of dance...but cheerleading is just, cheerleading.

and if youre a cheerleader please dont get so damn offended...this topic was opened for opinions, not right or wrongs
eyeyeyo
i chose dancing :D i was in cheerleading before but i was always scared to be at the top of th pyramid and to be thrown up :[
sheepy
dancing :]
hollaITSJOJO
umm.. for ppl who think cheerleading sucks,,

cheerleading = dancing with school or organization pride

Cheerleading is dancing with gymnastics. If you disagree, go watch Bring it On.

eh well im not really the "girly girl" type i'm more like a tomboy but hey i still wear make-up sometimes lol!

Who says you need to be a "girly-girl" to be a dancer or cheerleader? I'm both and a tomboy too. huh.gif

And yes, cheerleading is VERY hard. It's not "preppy".

Anyway...dance and cheer are different things, so I can't really pick one. It's like



Apples and Oranges. _smile.gif

Hey, would you look at that? 50 people chose dancing over 9 people in dancing.
MeanBastard
You guys have a dancing team? How.. pointless can sports get now?
PinkTrash
Cheerleading can sometimes include dancing.. I like cheerleading, it includes a big group, a lot of activites and more flexibility than dancers. I mean you need to do hurpees, need to balance ontop of each other, which in dancing you dont need to do..
TWiSTED STARS
i like both. i do any type of dancing. cheerleading is harder than you think it is. all those stunts and pyramids are harder than you think.
tImOnE

xlxjokerbabixlx
I choose dancing, maybe cheerleading has flips and flyers, but dancers are more versiatile.

i'm actually both .... but when those people in my cheerleading team told me that i was gonna be the FLYER (the people they throw up in the air) i went balistic cuz i totally don't trust those people to catch me....

Aww flying is so much funn!! You should've tried it

Dancing. I wanted to join the dancing team for my freshmen year, but they never announced the try-outs to go for it and the next thing I know, they already have a team! cry.gif

Maybe I'll go for basketball or something. huh.gif

I don't have anything against cheerleading either, but I'm more dancing and music than gymnastics. happy.gif

babyxyelloe, please don't double post. There's an edit button for a reason. happy.gif;;

hellzlilkit
i am a cheerleader but i dont like it that much anymore since the girls on the squad are b*tchy. i really like dancing better because its something you can do on your own or with a guy that isn't gay! lol.

QUOTE(unfortunatekiwi @ Sep 2 2004, 6:04 PM)
agreed. if i had to choose any sport...gymnastics is the way to go. happy.gif

definately. gymnastics is much better than dance & cheerleading whether it's competitve or not.

don't think im just saying bad stuff about dance & cheerleading without trying it first because im not. ive done dance, cheerleading, & gymnastics. the only one i really like is gymnastics.

but i guess your opinion is your opinion

oh and whoever said cheerleading was more dangerous than dance, they are right. BUT gymnastics is MUCH MUCH MUCH more dangerous than both. we see injuries ALL the time. just recently we had a girl on my competitive team dislocate her elbow right before competiton season and i broke my finger causing me to miss the first competition. we break, dislocate, & sprain stuff way more often.

that ^^ is not my opinion either it is FACT
