Agent Gully

Been there, done that with car accidents (and of course where my horses try to off me) and they are very traumatic. I agree with you completely! Anyone want to bet they will cut her due to her "hysterics" in the office and say she is a risk due to that? I wouldn't put it past Kelli.

After thinking about it (I have no life), I think that Amy is indeed the actual point of the triangle, even though Maddie is in that position for more time during the dance. It was Amy that Judy called up first, not both Amy and Maddie. Time was given for her to be acknowledged by the others as point. The same was not done for Maddie. There was no real pause or big deal made when Judy had Maddie move up front for the second part of the dance. Sooooo, officially it seems, Amy is the sole official point of the team, with Maddie also at times (even if it is the majority) in front of the group. I can see therefore, why Amy was calling herself the point. And, it was definitely Kashara who replied, "cute", not Amy on the phone call.

Random thoughts after watching this week... posting here because spoilers! In the previews for next week, whoever passed out was a veteran as she was in blue. Meredith has beautiful eyes, but honestly for me that is about it. She can't remember choreography, blew the interview, does not have the best figure on the team, and has the fewest stickers (including Melissa's pink sticker, ugh.) Of course she makes the team, how silly to think otherwise....(pries eyeballs back from where they have spun to top of head). I think Amy was just surprised and excited to be named point. I thought it was rather cruel to then put Maddie up front leaving Amy a bit shell shocked. I like both girls, but still think there should be only one point. Bridget, Caroline,...? I hope it was explained to the gals what was going on with two points. Kat just seems to be a no filter gal who is very (too very) talkative and open. The other gals seem to like her. It can be good to have someone happy and funny in a locker room, lightens the mood. Happy to see my favorite, Christina, getting some love from Kelli and Judi. She stepped it up and it shows. I didn't care for Kelli's comment about Jalyn being so disappointed after not being named to SG but now she is FINALLY back on track. Aside from her moment in the locker/bath room, she was back on track that same night. I think Shaina is lovely with her beautiful eyes and red hair. She seems sweet and I hope she tries again next season.

Look what hubby brought me tonight! Said he had heard the commercial so many times that when he saw them he bought them. So, the ad worked for someone, lol!

Oh Julia, it would have been better to have had "no words".

I agree, I thought that was so insensitive.

Random thoughts after watching: posting here due to spoilers... I really can't blame Lily for being so tense in that she was cut at the end of TC last season with no notice that we saw. I think that she was guarded this season in case it would have happened again. Much like Brennan, I was thinking that she would relax a bit once she actually made the team. The more you tell someone to relax, the more tense they become! I just loved (insert sarcasm here) that in the little quartet on field with VK and others, every other girl was critiqued, but not a word about VK. She also made a few mistakes that deserved a mention, but of course that could never happen. Ugh! Madeline S. seems to be such a sweet and polite gal. I could see why she was cut, but I truly hope she is able to come back strong next year and make the team. Was glad to see my favorite, Christina, called out tonight for her strong dancing. Judy actual spoke a few sentences in the office tonight. A miracle. Kelli - those tight jeans aren't doing you any favors. A more relaxed fit would suit you better. Finally, I wish they had spent more time on hearing the opinions of the team leaders. Of course, Kelli is determined to have Meredith (who did look a bit better tonight) on the team no matter what the team leaders, choreographers, or others have to say.

I realize that actually getting to dance in the boots on the field for the first time is exciting, but some of the rookies act as if they have never had them on before, EVER. I mean, they did wear boots for their cameo portraits....

I remember seeing an article about Tyra Banks when she recently posed in the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated. She said that now she is heavier that she looks better in skimpy bikinis as it is more slimming than a regular bikini when you aren't a string bean.

Yeah!!!

How sweet! My three favorites are Christina, Bridget, and Brennan so we can be friends, LOL! Has anyone determined if Kat and Meredith are still alternating weeks? If so, what is the one "off" for the week doing - on the sidelines somewhere, in the locker room, visiting with fans, or not at the stadium?

BINGO!

Hurray, I am not alone!

There were probably three folks who said she wasn't a nice person and a trusted insider who said she was a locker room favorite. Christina was ASKED what could be a problem this year, she did not go around complaining beforehand and had she not been called into the office we would not have heard a peep out of her. She is my favorite (along with Brennan and Bridget) and although I don't know her personally, I can tell you that she is well liked by her team mates on her IG and is almost always invited to the events the other DCC have during there free time. As I have said before, she and Brennan bring a maturity to the locker room that all teams need. The reason many don't like VK is due to the favoritism she received last season with her disrespect of Jinelle and her very obvious weight gain - things for which pretty much any other TCC would have been cut. In addition, we were practically beat over the head with her then, much as we are seeing this year with Kat and Meredith. I think she is much improved this year, but the bad taste left in our mouths from last year is still there for some and Kelli is very much to blame for that. JMO

I think the issue with Lisa is that because she has a bit stockier build that it often looks like she has no neck. That said, she certainly is a powerful dancer. I'm a fan of Christina, I can relate to her hearing difficulties and have always found her to be mature and down to earth. She has had some good dancing moments (I believe they showed a wonderful clip of her when Charm was guest choreographer.) I'm sure she shows energy during game day. It is harder for those gals who have to have a full time job to support themselves. I doubt any of them have time for a spa day on a regular basis! Kelli has really annoyed me so far this season. She would make a bad poker player that is for sure. She practically drips venom with Madeline S. and then salivates with joy over Kat, Meredith and precious VK. Grrr! Judy is also upsetting me - for God's sake woman, SAY something! Sorry for the rant, I am in dire need of coffee even at this hour of the night!

I think it was because there were three short clips, someone crying (was it Meredith?), then a shot of Christina not crying, and then a shot of Kelli crying. It all kind of blended together. I know I am biased, but I think Christina looks fine. When her boobs settle and she retires from DCC and can gain a little weight, they will "fit" her frame better. I'm not sure what her full time job is, but she used to teach fitness classes. If that is still the case and I was exercising during the day AND then dancing every weeknight, I would be dead on my feet (or more likely - dead). I feel for any DCC gal working full time and trying to have any kind of work/life balance.

Thoughts after watching today: Putting this here so I don't have to worry about spoilers... I'm still a big fan of Christina. She did have some good moments of dancing that even her detractors have noticed. I think she and Brennan bring a maturity and steadiness to the DCC that is always needed and welcomed in a locker room. It was fantastic to see Hannah get such positive recognition. She really has a sensuality in her dancing that draws the eye. I also thought that the rookie Taylor looked great tonight. Rookies Shaina and Madeline S. are really beautiful and I hope both return next season. I thought Kelli was very rude to Madeline in questioning her if she really wanted to be a DCC. Madeline in no way deserved such harsh questions. Reminds me of the questioning Kelli did with Brennan before she made the team. I like Lily, but she just looks so very harsh this season. Drawn, stressed, and looking a bit depressed. I understand, after the way she was pretty much cut without warning last season, but it isn't much fun to watch her.

I'm so glad you are doing better! I cannot imagine myself ever asking someone to remove their wig, but I know people can be very rude. I've learned so much about wigs on this forum!

I wish I could like this statement 1,000 times. Beautifully said!

I guess they plan to annoy us each week by alternating between the Kat Show and the Meredith Show.

I'm putting my thoughts after finally watching the show (at 6am, lol) here so I don't accidentally post a spoiler. * Kelli reminded me tonight of why I have never been particularly fond of her. She is the type who takes everything very personally and then holds it against a person throughout eternity. When Jalyn needed a few moments to quietly compose herself, Kelli acted as though it was a personal insult to her. It was good to see the Judi understood why Jalyn was upset. To me, Kelli doesn't have any true warmth unless you are her special pet. We didn't get to see what the other judges said about Jalyn for the most part. The only thing I can see is that her current hair color washes her out a bit and doesn't allow her face to shine through. Something brighter might bring out her eyes and smile more. I noted that while they were in the studio that Kelli mentioned the past triangle as "infamous". I think she needs a dictionary as infamous means well known for some bad quality or deed!

I think we can rule out WW with Christina, she is skinny as a rail. I find the previews to always be very misleading, so the tears could be for anything!

Honestly, I thought the same. It does look like Kat with poor lighting.

Over the summer, they posted a photo of Daphne on Facebook when they were on the calendar shoot. She honestly looked like a starvation victim. You could tell the photo had not been retouched.Comments went wild on it (about how scary thin she was) and within a half hour, the photo disappeared and was replaced with another one of her that had definitely been fixed up to make her look less skeletal. Pretty sure something of that sort is taking place here with Gina as well. I had issues with eating or rather not eating when I was in college. I managed to move on from that, but still have horrible body dysmorphia. What I see in a mirror is not what the truth really is. I have to rely upon my scale, fit of my clothes and others to give me the true picture of what my body looks like. With the amount of young girls they have in their cheerleader camps, etc. TPTB need to think about what kind of role models they are putting in front of these girls IMO. Slender is one thing, skeletal is another.

Thank you! Hopefully, it will cause her no lingering issues (the injury, not the getting cut part!).
