I honestly think Marissa looks great in the uniform.  It suits her body nicely.

Uh oh, Marissa is adding those little VK hair tosses in at the end.  Gee, who taught her that???

Wow, somebody doesn't know her place on the team, that sass at the end, she really seems quite pleased with herself...

True, and it is first game and a new set up for all of them.  But I do think there are those "small details", as Ashton would say, that need to be worked on.  

So, Kelli telling the rookies to relocate to Dallas even though they weren't on the final team was all for drama - big surprise🙄

Maddie as game day girl - a reward for still being obedient since the other 5 year vet is benched?

We know that Kelli isn't consistent with anything and the masks are likely only for show, to make people think they're complying with the rules.  If there wasn't the chance that the girls would be photographed in public or that they'd be shown on television, the masks would NOT be in evidence.  Also, if the NFL hadn't made it clear that the cheerleaders would not be allowed on the field at all (and likely both the organization AND the cheerleaders would be punished if this rule was violated), the girls would be on the sidelines and the field like usual.  In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the touchdown decks were pressed back into service despite them being deemed dangerous was because Kelli was bound and determined to make sure that the girls were performing during the game.

Sadly, the ONLY reason Victoria wasn't treated like the rest of the rookie candidates (as in an introduction and a few talking heads) was because she was a Kelli favorite and Kelli has known her her entire life.  Kelli has never acted with any girl like she did (and still does) with Victoria and doesn't like to be called on it because she knows what she's doing (turning a blind eye to whatever Victoria does, overlooking things that would have gotten any other girls cut immediately, etc.) is wrong.  At least Rachel W's achievements are all of her own making and, while Maddie could certainly use more than a few lessons in hip hop, she's been a solid performer who also earned her spot on the squad through her own hard work, not through connections.  

I do agree that it was agreed on beforehand because both Kelli and Charlotte knew that it would be a bad look for the organization to cut a vet at finals for being injured immediately after Cassie was kept on the squad for being injured the year before.  While some might have looked at it as her taking someone else's spot because she was originally going to be cut, others could say she got her spot back.

I don’t think she took a spot, they had picked the TCCs and added her at the end of announcing the others. They just took in one more than they had planned into camp. And then she made the team on her own merits. This is about Danielle when she cut her foot before finals.

Or to make up for her not being point today?  

Was it just me, or was that game day girl photo more airbrushed than usual?

According to a fan who’s at the game, VK keeps getting talked to about her mask.

In regards to Marissa - and to be honest, every cheerleader - I'm more worried about cameos than anything else. Those are the definition of hit or miss... most often miss, it seems.

Yeah, but even a pretty girl can have a bad cameo. Remember Holly’s first cameo? I thought that was awful, and yet I think she’s a gorgeous girl.

That's what Photoshop is for.  Using plug-ins you can literally reshape features, change the shape of a face, fill in wrinkles, you name it.

Vic's life size cameo in their locker room has Photoshop correction written all over it.

The one thing you can't hide from though, is the jumbotron.

Was that the year they used a different photographer and so many of the close-up cameos looked absolutely awful?

The hideous one on the left doesn't even look like Tasha.

[dreamcatcher]

I have to say, I see no reason for them to dance in masks since they are outside and it looks like they have some distance between them. If they’re not (consistently) wearing it during bus drives and in the locker room, then that’s just stupid. I’m back at my dance studio and I have to wear a mask throughout class -it’s just awful, i can’t believe they are wearing it for so many hours straight in a field when chances are they will be infected while in the locker room anyway if someone is sick.

Maybe to others.  Marissa is her own entity to me.  Not since season 1 have I ever seen a cheerleader I found so ugly.  Victoria may have huge chompers and ratted hair, but she isn't ugly.

I'm pretty sure its an NFL rule that everyone bar players must wear them. Well all stadium employees which they are. Other teams have had the cheerleaders masked too.

Cowboys stadium is an indoor stadium...it does have a retractable roof but it’s not always open. I’ve been there a dozen times and I think I’ve seen it partially open all of twice. 
 

And while they’d probably be fine, not good optics to not have them wear a mask, especially when they’re wholly unnecessary. 
 

Also, that game was WILD. Holy smokes!!! So glad I flipped over to double check the final even after the Chiefs game started. Lol.

In NL you dont have to wear a mask if you keep distance, except in big crowded cities like Amsterdam and Rotterdam

Actually you do on public transport in the whole country, not just major cities. And there's a second wave of infections now so I'd say bring on the masks anyway.

I think it's good the cheerleaders are wearing them during game time, if only as role models for others. Happy they found a creative way to have them there for the games, but too bad many in the stadium don't abide by the mask rule. Was watching the game and even Jerry was wearing one at some point.

No I’m ok with the rule. I’m just saying that for me at least it’s stupid to make them wear the mask while they’re dancing if you’re not going to have them mask up in smaller and more crowded places.

We don’t really have to wear the masks either, apart from areas with high cases and in crowded spaces. There’s no such rule for gyms and dance studios, but classes are capped at a certain number of students. Some studios choose to have this rule, mine included... the good news is that they’ve also added new clasrooms that are located outside, so we get to dance without masks there. Buuut while we have nice weather throughout the year, it’s not going to be ideal over the winter. I might as well get used to wearing a mask already 🙂

I think the girl next to Ashlee in that story is McKenzie? She has shorter hair and if they made her hair warmer rather than the ashy blonde it was (I hope so) then I think it is her. It looks so off because Ashlee went the wrong way with her hair flip. 

Also it looks like Claire is a redhead (yay!!) you can see her and Jessica behind Savannah in this video

Well you know what Dementia Kelli Finglass is like. She likes to make up lies and say X or Y or Z but then 2 minutes later she physically FORGETS the shit she said about X or Y or Z. I mean common look at look at Whitney Isleib's incident and then Melissa Rycroft and her mono and then Cassie having mono and now look at Brennan's incident.

 

Whitney should have been fired. Yes I believe Whitney learnt from her mistake. But look Melissa and Cassie and Brennan. All three have one thing in common. They all have caught 2 separate disease that is contagious but where as Melissa and Brennan was physically "told off/fired" for it and Cassie was given an excuse of "she is ill  a contagious disease give her a chance" but yet you don't extend that to Melissa Rycroft a few years before hand for the same illness but now a global pandemic that caused a major lockdown, with a second wave in many cities and some cities have gone into lockdown a 3rd time (because we came out of lockdown one and they had a spike and had to go to a second lockdown and came back out of it but had to go back into a 3rd when there was a spike in the rest of the country etc)

 

Dementia Kelli isn't exactly that bright. She forgets alot of things she says. If they took the masks off so you can see and hear them talking. Then its fine its understandable but from the looks its seems Dementia Kelli just promotes things for the camera but once gone she sends mixed signals. If I was working for the cowboys, I would be whistleblowing super hard and I could not care less what that Dementia Kelli says. Be f-ing consistent with what you say and do and to quote what Dementia Kelli once said in a previous season, "stupid don't do well in our business and you cant undo stupid" and that is what Dementia Kelli is. STUPID.

[Jezlyn]

Pretty sure VK is the blond in the middle and her mask is def slipping down, may not be her fault.

Good to see them still able to do the win dance, just in the members lounge and appropriately spaced. So hard to pick who each is thought with the masks on.

She definitely should b in the triangle, one of the best dancers. I’d put her at point but I know some don't care for her look. I didn't care for Whitney Isliebs look and she was point. Even after the whole scandal.

OMG did they seriously tag a casino/gambling site/place? Wow and they tell Holly Powell off for drinking underage at 20 (yes she was underage) but now they are promoting gambling when SOME of their target viewers are underage and alot of their followers also came from the TV show where underage kids are watching them and then followed them on social media.

Holy wow--I thought I'd NEVER catch up! I can't process it all yet, but I feel like I needed to share that I just got thru 31 pages of forum posts and the biggest BS I see in all of this is cutting Hannah. I'm sad about Brennan, too, and feel they did her wrong by jerking her around all these years, but of the 4 veteran cuts, I find Hannah's the most shocking and LOL if they try to pass it off as weak pom technique. I mean, Tyce Diorio couldn't stop watching her, so color me unconvinced. 

Looking forward to seeing the rookies and watching the spin doctoring this season.

Ashlee is a group leader?! I just plowed thru a million pages so maybe I missed the GL and GL2 announcement? I'm totally pulling for Ashlee to be a GL2 this year or next, but I don't see them appointing her a GL without being a 2nd first. She's one of my favorites and I really want her to stay long enough to be in the triangle and/or a GL. She moved up so much in year 2, I think she has a shot at triangle.
