Lots to say, but ....
Kelly's hair from.the back. Eek!
And I am trying to like Alora-Rose,but I'm really struggling to.get there. She just looks dirty. Like, unclean. I don't like her complexion or the texture of her hair (ironically, she is a Monat rep). And her personality just comes off so... put on,I guess.
YES HER HAIR!! I was like oh no honey, you need to cut those ends! Haha

I haven’t been following the boards this year. Can someone help with questions (if there is intel)
1) what was Brennan referencing with “where this team is going” this year. Did something happen?
2) did tina k only make it for one season back in her day?
3) do we know which girl had covid? Just curious
4) besides frustration and waiting till the last minute was there anything else specifically that the cut vets were so mad about?
I love Brennan. Was bummed about that

Sorry I’m sure it’s posted here somewhere and I’m late to the game but we’re any vets cut for training camp?
-
Has anyone seen the most recent vk pic on her insta? Why. Just why vk? The amount of Facetune used on her eyes is criminal.

In other news. MEGAMILLIONS is now up to 1.6BILLION. gives your thumbs a break from blabbering about VK and go buy some tickets...
Odds of us all continuing to babble about VK on a site dedicated to babbling: 100 percent
odds if winning the mega millions: 1 in 302 million
thanks for the advice though ;)

Sticker observations...
The obvious: KF-Kelli, JT-Judy, KC-Kitty, NF-Nick & MRS-Melissa.
But, who are LM (red), KG (dark green) and MM (light blue)???
The circled numbers are the years they've been on the team, but what is the "B" for? Lacey, Gina, Victoria and Kristen have them...
Victoria ONLY has one sticker --- from Kitty
Kristen also has a sticker from Kitty!! Kitty has been riding Kristen's ass lately: "Everyone here is beautiful, you can't make it on looks alone!!" wtf?
Tara looks really good in her audition photo, annnnd.....
Hannah looks GREAT in her audition photo!!!! (They should've let her do her own makeup for cameos!)

Victoria looks the best I’ve seen her in that picture

The part I found most telling was the way VK kept cutting her eyes at Jinelle in a super bitchy way as she talked to Kelli.
I also couldn’t believe they didn’t comment on VK’s comment about jinelle not having a weight issue therefor not understanding (unless they did and edited it out). Like come on! If I was her boss and she said that to me (albeit her feeling that way is fair but still) I would have immediately said that is not the point! The point is we appointed jinelle to help you wth nutrition and fitness and you ignored the help. The kid gloves they use with her is ridiculous

I respect your right to your opinion, but I would not compare to Erica sticking around when she clearly was not happy with her pay to a woman staying with a person who is abusing her. She knew about the pay and decided to stay. It is not like she needed the money to survive when she could have went out and gotten a good paying job instead of being a DCC. Other girls on the team have been able to keep a full time job and be a DCC at the same time. No one force her to stay especially when she had opportunities for other jobs where she had more time for herself and be able to support herself. I do agree it is wrong the football players get better pay than the girls, but in reality, the average fan is there to watch the players not the girls along with the fact no Cowboys football team means no cheerleaders in the first place. I do not think they should be paying the girls $30,000 a year because they are getting paid by what they bring in revenue. They know it when they sign the contract, but they should pay the girls better.
I agree on the comparison being a stretch, hence my apples and oranges comment. But ooof, the “she knew the pay before, she could have just left” mentality hurts my soul as a woman. we shouldn’t have to just “leave” a situation that is unfair. That doesn’t solve anything. That’s kinda everything that’s wrong in our society with unjust situations.
I don’t think anyone is arguing that the football players shouldn’t be payed more haha, but 30k a year. Come on. That’s not even minimum wage salary right? We’re acting like that’s super star cash. But I digress, I’ll get off my soap box. Besides, talking about entitled Victoria is more fun anyway ;)
melissa rycroft.... will they ever listen to the masses and ditch her. She offers NOTHING. They could fill her segments with so much more that we’d all like to see. Literally anything.

If she was so unhappy about the pay why go for her fourth year? She waited until she cut to file the lawsuit. It can look bad for her because people will question it especially since she is lying about being cut. And yes, I know people will lie about the reasons why they were fired. In my home state, a former U. S. Senator who was still in office at the time was getting ready to fire a woman because she was not doing her job. She knew she was going to get the axe, so she filed a sexual harassment suit against him saying he harassed her because she knew he was going to fire her. I believe she settled out of court even with the proof of her lying about the whole thing to save her bacon.
If Erica was willing to lie about why she is not with the team anymore, then any judge, lawyer or jury will look at the whole picture and think is she doing it to get even or is she really wanted to call out attention to the issue and help all cheerleaders out along with why were you trying out for your fourth year knowing how bad your pay was and why did you wait so long before saying I was not getting the pay I deserved. I bet if it did go to a jury they would have been asking the same thing.
Eh, that’s kind of a weak argument. It’s like asking why the abused woman stayed in an abusive relationship for so long. Yes. Apples and oranges, ill admit it haha. I guess what I’m saying is everything is much more clear when you’re outside of the situation and it’s never too late to fight for what’s right regardless of the situation

I would have absolutely no problem with the cheerleaders being paid $30k. The Packers are a publicly owned team and are thus required by law to release their financials. They had $420.9 million in expenses in 2017. The Packers don't have cheerleaders, but for arguments sake, 36 cheerleaders making $30k adds up to $1.08 million in expenses. That's 0.2% of the total expenses! Green Bay is the smallest market team in all of professional sports, and they have a healthy reserve fund of $380 million that would last for years, even if they stopped turning a profit (Which will never happen as long as the NFL is in business). Annual profit and interest from the reserve fund added up to $63.4 million in net profit in 2017, a year in which many fans claimed they were done with the NFL due to various controversies. Dallas is a considerably larger market with an owner worth an estimated $7 billion. I don't think $30k is unreasonable at all.

I don't know Cassie in real life, but from what I've seen she's not the type to be meekly led. Nor does Judy seem like Gypsy's Mama Rose, directing Cassie's life. I think Cassie is a SAHM mom because she wants to be. Maybe that was her goal from the start, or maybe that's just how it worked out, but I think saying she's a SAHM because she's too dumb and untalented to do anything else is a reach. I don't have any evidence for that, but she seems to have thrown herself wholeheartedly into the role, and to enjoy it very much.
I
I agree. That comment annoyed me. I’m a sahm with 2 degrees and a ton of drive. It’s just a choice I make while the kiddos are young. Hate Cassie for dcc things but not for that

No amount of time in the gym or willpower will make most females over the age of 14 look like Jayln. The assumption someone that looks like that versus a larger girl is because she “works hard and eats right” is why so many women have low self esteem, eating disorders and a bad body image. Same goes for Jinelle.
I really hope Kelli doesn’t make Jayln next season’s weight loss mentor.
Victoria, no matter who the mentor is if they mentor you again just try to stay positive and listen to the advice ;)

We don’t know that she didn’t. She looked a little thinner in that footage of her meeting w/ Jinelle - perhaps she got some of the weight off on her own or by working with others and the meeting was just about her and Jinelle not getting along?, not even her weight.
Honestly though, even if she did get a bit off, which is doubtful in a short amount of time, this will be something she’d struggle with every season. Let’s face it, You come in your rookie year looking the best you’ll ever look. These girls have dreamed about this day, prepped, probably starved. I’m sure there’s exceptions but for most of them weight wise, this will be the best they’ll look. So if she’s struggling from day one of her rookie training camp and gaining 11 lbs in such a short amount of time.... that’s telling.

I feel a lot of the Erica hate (which people are certainly entitled to like or dislike whoever they want) really seemed to take off after the lawsuit. That’s when suddenly a bunch of former DCCs started talking about her being cut, and the tide turned here. I think some saw it as a betrayal from a bitter girl. Add in that she’s also friends with Jenna and Cersten (both lightening rods on here) and there you have it. Personally I think she’s bitter (not unusual) and nothing suggests to me that her cut was unwarranted, but I don’t have an issue with the lawsuit at all, primarily the FLSA claim. I don’t handle wage and hour claims (i primarily handle EEOC based claims), but the dual hourly/non hourly DCC system described seemed strange and also a very easy way to run afoul of FLSA rules, even if unintentionally. Most smart companies have clear/rigid wage/hour/overtime rules for a reason. If there were violations there (which again, not saying there definitely were), then I don’t care how many years she danced and loved it or how bitter she is, the suit was legit. I won’t criticize her for that all.
Completely agree. If her claims are deemed correct then change is needed. Also this whole “you should be grateful for being on this team, it’s a privelage” mentality really pisses me off. No one says that to the football players. Or any other job for that matter. If she’s lying let the system do their job and figure it out. It just seems like people were quick to discredit her as a bitter fired cheerleader before looking at the case.

Does the 2GL choose the dances? If that was her only issue, then another season as a 2GL would have been the next step, not a demotion.
I agree SO much. I wouldn’t be particularly mad because Gina is one of their best dancers at the moment, but her facials are terrible and she just has something... Paris Hilton-y about her. And I definitely don’t think that a girl who honestly believes that others are jealous of her enough to say it in front of the cameras can actually become a true team player and leader and not follow Jenna’s path.
Tasha has won me over. She’s so much more powerful and looks amazing on the field. Rachel is still one of my favorite vets and has the same girl next door quality Dani had. Erin looks amazing this year-she went from no power at all to THIS in just one year? See VK, that’s how you do it! Kashara may not be the strongest dancer, but she’s the only performer they have on the squad (rookies excluded, haven’t seen enough). She draws you in and she looks like she truly enjoys it and she’s so “big and bold” without looking out of control (see VK, that’s how you do it). Aand all the rookies look good this year.
Is Heather in Kashara’s group? That must be a slap in the face for Heather too.
Yesssss on the Paris Hilton vibes. I know we only get glimpses of these girls but she just strikes me as a mean girl. Granted an awesome dancer, but still.
Well never know all the behind the scenes stuff that happens and obviously they don’t want to air out all the dirty laundry so I just assume there’s reasons behind all their choices.
Yes on Tasha!! I remember when she was a rookie thinking oh geez she’s cheesy wth her pink lipstick and funny Instagram but now I think she’s really beautiful and turned out to be a great dancer

I am new to this forum. But can someone tell me what happened to Kelsey? I didn't see her in the list of returning vets.
I was thinking about her too. Unless I’m blind and competed missed her I didn’t see her at all in the last episode with the segment about retiring vets

But I do agree with other posters, why bring her into camp at all if they really didn't think she had a chance? Maybe that's why she got a Barbie, as a consolation prize?
Maybe I’m being naive, but I suspect they brought her in because they DID think she had a chance. Maybe she choked at camp. None of us will really know until it airs.

Can we all agree that when anyone says “fat” they don’t really mean fat. They’re talking for dcc standards. Personally I don’t like to use that word, it seems harsh, but I can certainly get that when someone says it they don’t mean it in a literal real world way.

Forgive me for this q as I’m sure the answer is in here somewhere (spare me from scrolling!) but what is the speculated reason that Victoria didn’t try out?
