Kamal August 1, 2022 Share August 1, 2022 I'm not an Ashlee fan, (I'm more rooting for Kelcey, Chandi, Claire) but looking at how much of a strong fan base Ashlee has I wonder why they don't give point to her.

I'm sure we don't technically know for sure until the games start though. Because Kelli doesn’t care about that. The only opinions that matter to Kelli is Kelli’s own opinion and probably Charlotte since she’s her boss. I love Ashlee and I can definitely see her as point. But I also like Caroline a lot and she’s very deserving of being point in more ways than one too. I’d be happy with either but very pleased Caroline got it. We have 36 amazing dancers, so of course there are more than one possible points that would be great and are very deserving. Lastly Kat: Yes, great performer and great field presence, she’s fun to watch like Kashara. Because of that, she could pull off point too. But my main concern will always be her abilities to represent the team and act as spokesperson (which is what points do a lot) Kat is known for her constant blabbing and speaking before you think, causing some ‘interesting’ gaffes. She may have improved over the last two years but if she hasn’t then this definitely rules her out as point for me. 4 Link to comment
Survivor197 August 2, 2022 Share August 2, 2022 Ashlee and Claire really shine in those YouTube videos from Oxnard. My eyes are immediately drawn to them. Caroline seems so sweet but she is a snooze to me as point, just like Rachel W and Amy. 2 11 Link to comment

DCCFan197605 August 3, 2022 Share August 3, 2022 I find it interesting that it took so long for Caroline to take point. When KaShara came back as a guest choreographer in 2019, she was asked who should succeed her. She chose Caroline. And she finally made it after Amy/Maddie, Maddie/Rachel and Gina/Rachel.

I guarantee though she's never been to some drive through hamburger joint or fried chicken place. Ok long time reader and THIS is the comment that finally made me make an account to say something. Let me start off by saying I DO NOT KNOW THESE GIRLS PERSONALLY. I started watching the show when it was airing in September/October 2019 and since I have rewatched the older seasons and caught up. I live in the areas that are shown on the TV show. It has almost become like a game of “where’s waldo” because of how often I see or hear things about people associated with DCC. Example: I can not tell you how many times I saw Meredith at my grocery store during the 2019-2020 season. She was always on her phone with parents or boyfriend (you could hear her call them mom/dad/babe from aisles over) Her voice is the exact same as it is on the show, Kelli’s sedated comment from season 13 finals fits her to a T. (Not making fun of it but I was surprised when I heard her talk casually and realized that’s just her voice) OK THIS IS WHY I FINALLY MADE AN ACCOUNT Jayln is just built super petite, tiny, small. If anyone is familiar with Kibbe body types I would place her as a flamboyant gamine/gamine. I will never forget the day Jayln was standing in front of me inside my local Chick-fil-a. She ordered a kids meal with grilled nuggets, fruit cup, ice water with lemon, and a order of waffle fries to share with an older women she was meeting with. The group I was with already had a booth and Jayln with the older women picked one right behind us. (I’m guessing because the booths were away from playground so it was quieter) I could hear them talking and working on their computers on Jayln’s business, which I now know is her event planning business. So YES she goes to “drive through hamburger joints or fried chicken places”. I hope none of the girls have serious EDs but I wouldn’t be surprised if anyone that has worn the uniform or been in training camp has some level of disordered eating. I have very mixed feelings about DCC/MTT. Because of the years of what I have seen and heard about the whole Cowboys organization. There are so many things that if you didn’t watch the show or know who these people are by name and face, you wouldn’t care to remember it. I am not seeking any of this out. Sometimes I would be listening to someone telling a story about their friend and it ends up being a DCC/DCC adjacent. It is hard to hear things like lot of the girls of the team were/are anti-COVID-19 vax or the mechanics behind thing like DCC’s weddings. But seeing them go to the same grocery stores/shops/restaurants/etc as me reminds me that they real people too. I do love rewatching the show for the dancing and the personal journeys of these women. If I’m being completely honest this show (especially during the peaks of the pandemic) has given me a lot of comfort and motivation to keep going. Some of my recent favorite DCCs are Bridget, Hannah, Taylor P, Heather O, Lily, Kelcey, Claire, Gina, Madeline M, Madeline S, Jayln, Amber M, Jensen, Megan, and Lea.

Blue hues August 5, 2022 Share August 5, 2022 So I saw on Facebook a photo of VK attending the DCC Belk fashion show. She looked soooo young! Seems her mom walked the runway with the DCC. Wow that Kalina Finglass bond is tight! Given their history, I find it unlikely that Kelli gave VK the heave ho to take a year and shape up. Would have thought she would try to get the DCC to conform to VK. any idea where she is placed in the formation? 1 Link to comment

There has been speculation on Reddit that at TCC (Zhenya) is injured enough that she is getting a pass on doing the jump split. This all started right after Alyssa (TCC - who was also injured) got cut. The person stirring the pot had a brand new user name of course. My suspicion is that there is some bitterness, particularly around the Alyssa cut, and so rumors were posted to insinuate things about Zhenya. It has not been confirmed by an insider on Reddit or here, although there hasn't been any insiders around much this year without the show. I don't follow any facebook groups - I suspect there is probably discussion over there as well. Sometimes rumors have a grain of truth, sometimes not. I think this one is a bit ridiculous to start because we won't have a show this year to verify any of it and it seems cruel right off the bat to imply a TCC didn't deserve to make the team - that will follow them their entire DCC career. Zhenya and Alyssa were both shown with ace bandages and tape on their legs. Zhenya performed the kickline by herself at finals. That is all we really know so far. 3 2 Link to comment

Lexi announced her retirement early on during her final year. So what, they didn’t want Gina back? The New England Patriots have a similar rule, where they cap cheerleaders at 4 years. Apparently, since the former director cheered for 4 years and felt fulfilled in her cheer career by that point. So, as director she wanted to make sure there was always the new opportunity to make the team. It always seemed unfair to me- just because the director knew she wanted to be done at 4 years doesn't mean that every cheerleader feels the same way. Thinking about tenure limits in terms of DCC I guess I understand it better. It would be professionally confusing to demote a cheerleader as GL or from her position in the triangle. At the same time, it would be demoralizing for younger cheerleaders to know the best they can do is 2nd GL or 3rd row in the triangle because there's too many 6th and 7th years taking the prime positions. First and second year, I think most cheerleaders are just happy to be on the team. By third and fourth year, I think most people are want DCC accolades. Also, from a management perspective, Kelli and Judy can keep younger cheerleaders in line (usually) because there's always the reward of reaching a milestone 5th year. What does a woman whose been there for 6.5 years have to lose? If a cheerleader loves appearances or the status of being associated with DCC, she can stay on as an All-star. It is kind of sad though, that if you want to keep performing, but don't want to be a full-time dancer on Broadway or in Hollywood, you don't have any opportunities to dance after your mid-20s. 1 3 Link to comment

Point/s are named for the whole season (given no injuries/weight warnings) and girls have also been point for more than one season.
