  1. I was just trying to be more circumspect but as a college professor, I have seen this happen with students who have a cultural background from Africa, where it is seen as flattery to take someone else’s words without giving them credit and use them in something you’ve written. Every culture is different about a lot of different things and this was just one of the ones that I ran into frequently.
  2. I am inclined to believe that VK has just chosen to ignore those because she has a life where she is right and can do what she wants to do. She’s no longer a teenager and can use excuse if I didn’t know any better. For someone who’s been in the world as long as she has been, she would know that we acknowledge where we got the information from and it’s no different than in writing a paper. If you don’t site the original author then it’s called plagiarism. Although I do know people in other countries, feel that taking information from someone else and not giving her credit is just called flattery. Perhaps VK subscribes to that belief.
  3. I think it is a situation where if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it for Thunderstruck!
  4. I’ve binged watched all the episodes yesterday. I agree with those who said Ari’s cut was difficult. Yes Charlotte‘s approach is very much like it’s not personal it’s just business because she has no personal relationship with any of these people and certainly would not see them as perhaps real people but just simply numbers or names without any personal investment. In fact the only one that I seem to see that she ever had a personal investment was Miranda Parker because she took the time to see her out after one of the auditions and talk to her. Yes there was way too much TK and It is clear that it has impaired Victoria’s growth. I was actually overwhelmed by seeing her on the bed completely surrounded with what was to define her entire life which was just DCC and now she’s turning 24 has no college education Or skills other than being employed at dance or fitness. It is no wonder she has mental health issues which seem fairly isolating as demonstrated by the sadness of her little pathetic birthday party which her mother wants to put on TikTok. I think she will be surprised when she sees the series and sees Kelly and Judy discussing that she doesn’t really interact with her teammates yet in Victorians mind they don’t want anything to do with her probably because she herself isn’t doing any reaching out and making an effort. I have certainly seen this when teaching college students were in their core classes with the same group all the time she’s of the group but not really part of the group she’s just there as a placeholder and you see that when she just walks aimlessly around whether it was the end of the year party or just when the team was in the locker room. I don’t see her taking any accountability or responsibility for issues that occurred in the locker room very early on in her career and have changed the perception of others about her as one who cannot be trusted. It is really sad that her mother has made Victoria her entire life and I was really surprised that she is allowing Victoria to quit. I wish Kelly and Judy have been more frank in their discussion of why they do not see her in a leadership position and that just shows that Victoria has a little insight into how a lack of interpersonal skills with others is going to hold her back from a leadership position. Clearly she has not been invited to all of the weddings and I don’t see her interacting with other people and I don’t see her interacting with other friends it’s like she has a cocoon and her mother is everything and without her mother she can’t exist. I wish for her more mental health and some distance which allows her to bloom into her own being. good to see that Sophy was supported concerning the physical and sexual harassment. In the stadium of that size I am hard-pressed to think that there is not video evidence of this occurring. As for the Green Bay fans getting up in the face of the cheerleaders if they were in 1/4 filming and this occurred at another section it would be hard to perhaps be aware of that drag the film crew over etc. it did remind me how much I did miss MTT and getting to know people better. I wish we would’ve seen the choice of seconds and how they put the groups together, and some other things that the luxury of a season versus just a documentary can allow.
  5. I don’t know if anyone else has seen this on the news but I think the name of the team was the aces and they had a very large dance team and it was all ages I mean that people over 50 all body sizes and it was very refreshing and they did a great job of dancing ! I believe this was for a female basketball team. Can anyone help me out or did anyone know of this team?
  6. It seems to me that there are several barriers to having the team uniforms being cleaned by the organization. First off we have to remember that football teams have this done but they’re only playing once a week so there’s plenty of turnaround time. The girls do not have more than one uniform guess they have practice outfits they have warm-ups The girls are going to go to a meet and greet someplace or an opening of a grocery store from their home not coming to the stadium and changing clothes and then going so having one uniform only and having it cleaned and then put back in their locker room the morning in which they need the uniform in the afternoon seems challenging. Unless the cheerleaders are willing to produce two uniforms, I think the the uniform cleaning is going to be left to the the girls.
  7. sorry if this is bolder as I can’t get the bold key seems to be stuck! I wonder if the pants are actually clean but she is throwing them in the wash with jeans and they have kind of got that blue fading from the genes on them as it is odd that the whole pants would be dirty and that’s what he would get from I think commingling whites and jeans!
  8. It is interesting that when I watched the two HBCU colleges play at the NBA All-Star game their cheerleading teams combinedTo present a very spirit filled and sharp routine that would’ve challenged anything that the DCC have done. They had males and female cheerleaders of all shapes & sizes who were all very much in lines etc. The cheerleaders represented what people Who are African-American look like and how they wear their hair. It was a great experience and I only wish that this could be something the DCC could model..
  9. The question is we should be asking is where was the security for the cheerleaders from the Cowboys? Why are they tolerating this why doesn’t the section have their own security? They know of what happened on the touchdown Terrace that cause them to quit having cheerleaders up there. They simply are being reactive not proactive. Let’s do better by the Cheerleaders!
  10. Yes Someone posted photos and I believe we have the announcement on Instagram from Marissa. You might want to scroll upwards and see if you can find it
  11. After years of dealing with Alexa I truly believe she has her own mind and thinks that she knows what I need to listen to or to hear a fact or some kind of games he wants me to play!
  12. I believe that incident was off the field and she had her back turned to him and didn’t see him coming. Can I get an affirmation from some others who were on the site when it actually happened? I have slept since then so perhaps I have remembered it incorrectly.
  13. Concerning that Facebook DCC page probably two days ago or so the owner Genghis or Michael wrote about administrators extolling their value and pointing out that a Steve Snider had more information than any other person and was the person also doing Pompedia. . yesterday Steve announces that for anyone who was contributing to Michael’s CPAP fund to buy him a machine that he had stopped it and that he was refunding all the money plus Steve was leaving the DCC Facebook page for personal reasons. Maybe creating a fund for a CPAP machine for the owner was a reach too far. Don’t know but seems odd
  14. Phil grew in his role going from a great security guard to an Ambassador of the stadium & its art. He will be remembered for his generous spirit & his kindness. He is probably welcoming people into Heaven now. He was one of a kind & is irreplaceable. Come on in!
  15. Wow you are right-big over the top mouth open like a 13 year old. Hardly any with a nice smile. Something like you would see with a desperate used car salesman is how he appears. Lots of photos of just him!
