UnicornKicks October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 After these videos I don't know why anybody calls Stephanie weak now. She wasn't as technical as Megan or Maddie in her rookie class, but she holds her own. 6 Link to comment
PBSLover October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 I’m pretty sure Kelli does not want to put on tv they have another problem with a cheerleader. End of story. Just like she said about Holly. She resigned and we are moving on. I think her patience is at an end. Link to comment

Just like she said about Holly. She resigned and we are moving on. I think her patience is at an end. I agree with this. They have to be careful about how much drama they include in this show. Showing that a couple of girls got out of line and had to be seriously corrected lines up with Kelli's goals to show that this is hard work, that this is a reputable organization with high standards, and that the girls have to work hard and prove themselves worthy. When it's more than a couple of girls screwing around, it starts to look like there is something systemically wrong with the organization. They have to be very careful to pick and choose what storylines to include in a season. 1 Link to comment
HowdeeDo October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 Side thought, wonder why they don't have the pink star or pink pom accents yet? I thought they did that for all home games in October, or are they only doing it for pink halftime? Is there any Pink event going on this month @ShellyB? 1 Link to comment
bigskygirl October 8, 2017 Author Share October 8, 2017 Today they are doing the Breast Cancer Awareness performance, and they started wearing the pink stars on their uniforms at last weekend's home game. They have a bye next week, and the last two October games will be out of town. Jessika must not be going too bad because she was chosen Game Day Girl. Link to comment
Teresa October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 I was pissed at how Kelli just blew off Holly's exit last episode. Makes it seem like it was no big deal when it really was. Also, was Holly's office visit the episode before last heavily edited? How she went from straight denial to suddenly head down "I don't know what to say" was weird! Kelli's statement of rumors and locker room talk just didn't seem to warrant that sudden change. Was there some photo evidence she was shown that they cut out? Link to comment

No pink stars, just mention of their pink practice outfits, and normally there's mention of practice for the pink halftime as well by now.

Stee October 8, 2017 Share October 8, 2017 (edited) Regarding Simone, I can't speak to her injury and I only remember her critiques being "noodly" during TCC but I have to say, I was extremely impressed by how charming and articulate on her live Facebook video with Carsten. I'm a huge fan of Carsten who we know to be intelligent, but I actually thought Simone more than held her own - she came off friendly, bubbly, charismatic and sweet. It wouldn't surprise me if she were "a locker room favorite." I don't think they show enough of the girls' personalities but I can imagine Judy and Kelli take this into consideration when picking the team as well. I think you can also tell who are favorites by who gets selected to go on meet+greets and who they pick to do Live Videos. To be honest, those facebook Q&A videos have been awesome - almost more interesting than the show this season! Edited October 8, 2017 by Stee 6 Link to comment

WaterSpirit October 9, 2017 Share October 9, 2017 as an Aside....did anyone else see the Alcohol is not spelled correctly on the document that Kelli shows to Holly? If memory serves it is spelled Alochol or some other variation. What in the world? official maybe legal document? I also noted some spelling errors on the Dallas Cowboys website, last week or the week prior there was one in Sam's article. I would think Cowboys organization has spell check? Just sayin... And I am fixated on why they have turned Jessica into a blond (I know this travesty started last year.) Looks horrible, as it does not compliment her skin tone. So I wanted to make an official Hair Color correction list: Jessika (forgot does she spell with K?) should be Brunette or Auburn, Lauren Brunette (pics as brunette were super) and eyebrow needs to be less severe Brennan, agree with poster who said her chances might have been better with a different makeover, Brunette Tasha change to Auburn with blond low lights Alexandria....warm brown or even reddish undertones. Part on the side, not in the middle as well. warm make up colors I am confusing two Rookies, Rachel and not Miranda, the other long haired Brunette, they are very similar from a distance. Not sure that is a negative, just confusing. and I will need to go back to auditions to remember the Young ladies name that tried out and was cut due to her "look"..Melissa and Neil McCoy just couldn't see it. She was AMAZING, just had black hair that was too severe. (was also described as "cat like" by hair stylist.) How great a story line would she have been? Team lost a great candidate for sure. In the previous seasons there were several women who would have been super with some effort put towards make up and hair color that were not given a chance. Boo. Would love your thoughts on makeover ideas, or other DCCs Link to comment

EricaShadows October 9, 2017 Share October 9, 2017 In addition to me thinking that Jenna won't be back next year, I also don't think she'll be asked to be an All Star unless she REALLY redeems herself over the season and there's limited opportunities for her to do so during that time frame. She's like going to go on the calendar shoot, but All Star? Nope. I don't think so. 1 Link to comment

She graduated a couple years ago too.

So she bailed on the dream and went to Johns Hopkins for nursing school.

Jenna's in the office with Kelly and Kelly says something to the effect "you need to get over it, it's toxic to the team." I'll be glad when Jenna retires.

I'm sorry to hear your friend abandoned her dream. I think those who didn't go to top tier undergraduate schools do find a medical school somewhere to get into . Not everyone wanted to, could afford to, or got into top 10/ivy league undergraduate schools. Doesn't LSU have a medical school? there's the old riddle... What do you call the person who finishes last from medical ( and probably law) school ? Answer: You call them Doctor. So unless the specialty and or the person is obsessed with which medical school they go to, I'm sure there's a place somewhere, sometime. A good test of that theory would be to ask DRs, that you frequent - I would admit I don't think I ever asked what undergrad they went to. Edited October 9, 2017 by sATL 3 Link to comment
