cherryblossom October 16, 2017 Share October 16, 2017 1 hour ago, kary said: So sad to me that Shelly is charging $50 for each class. Shelly knows the wannabee's will pay her anything for a chance to be a DCC. It seems to be a moneymaker for Shelly but so unfair to the girls that take the class since a lot of them don't have jobs that pay that well. If that is the going rate for DCC classes then I don't see what the problem is. It is someone's choice to take one class or every single one they offer up until May. Maybe they signed up to take one class now and one later or it was a gift from someone. You make it seem like Shelly opened a studio in her basement to hijack desperate women with inflated prices. It seems a little angry, like someone who took a class and then didn't get into TC 6 Link to comment

She seems mature and not like she is whining and crying to be on the team. She takes corrections well and puts in the effort to fix. But, at the same time.. there is very little flattering footage of her. The kicks are low, splits are tight and she doesn't have as much pop as some other rookies. I'm tempted to think that all the vet drama has shifted K&J focus, or they know they just need a complete team at this point. 5 Link to comment

HowdeeDo October 16, 2017 Share October 16, 2017 (edited) Shannon was a lot better in this weeks podcast, seemed interested in the conversation. He got called out for it on instagram last week ? interesting bits so far: The Halloween party was at Maggie/Heather/and Tess’ House Lacey and Maddie went as DCC security guards. Mentioned an appearance this past weekend for Lularoe. If they ever considered extending the season even further I’d love to see different types of appearances they do. Robin and Lacey live together this year. Kashara apparently doesn’t sleep. Lacey said she’s 50/50 on returning. Shannon said he’s going to ask every episode (thank you Shannon I actually want to know this!) Maggie didn’t quite answer, only mentioned the audition process and yada yada. She did say it’s harder to decide because she’s from California. And most exciting, they’re considering making the podcast an hour long Edited October 16, 2017 by HowdeeDo 4 Link to comment
cherryblossom October 16, 2017 Share October 16, 2017 Tuned in to These Boots are made for Talkin' and it was considerably better. No talking about getting drunk or Shannon acting bored and looking at his phone. Lots of different questions and answered part of one I had submitted. Both were well spoken and appropriate. The time sped by quicker this time. Link to comment
tajalexander October 16, 2017 Share October 16, 2017 (edited) I am dyinnnnng at the Lacey/Robin mouse story ????? Lacey: AHHHHHH!!!! THE WORLD IS ENDING!!!! Robin: oh looks it’s a mouse. I finally admit it, today turned me solidly into a Lacey fan. https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-official-dcc-podcast/id1296877044?mt=2 the Show should be called “These Boots Are Made For Talking” but it’s under “The Offical DCC podcast” which is slightly confusing.

MelissaB326 October 16, 2017 Share October 16, 2017 Lacey was charming and very well-spoken in the Podcast, I was really impressed with her personality. And of course both she and Maggie looked beautiful. Maggie was a little more quiet but I think she was letting Lacey as the more senior vet take control. Maggie seems to have a fun loving personality. I enjoyed the stories about the Halloween party and Robyn and the mouse, it’s fun to hear more about them. I guess Yuko is more fun than I would have thought if she dressed like a dancing hot dog and danced around all night. Kashara and the KFC was really funny. Shannon came off much better, it seemed like he actually wanted to be there this time. The whole thing was much more pleasant to listen to and watch. My only complaint is I wish they answered more questions, I don’t understand why they don’t seem to be able to find more to ask when you know people post and tweet a bunch of them. Link to comment

scorpio1031 October 17, 2017 Share October 17, 2017 (edited) I liked hearing about the sideline dances and how the group leader starts that off. That is the kind of stuff I wish they would show on MTT.

Slate October 17, 2017 Share October 17, 2017 Maggie and Lacey are two of my favorites, and they didn't disappoint! They were both funny and down to earth.

I think she's average at best and her pom dancing was super spastic and her facials were INSANE.(I use to run this DCC photo blog and I was doing retirement segment the year Emma retired I had to edit all Emma's photos bec Jen was behind her facing horrible faces). She's the worst point ever IMO since i started following DCC. I think she's a teacher pet and that annoying teacher pet who asks for more homework and stitches on her friends. Honestly, I don't know who she's related to but I think any other team she wouldn't have even made it. I totally boycott DCC last year after i found out she's the point and only came back after I found out she's leaving. Good riddance !!!! UGh, Rant over (I have more but i trying not to be super mean) I don’t hate her, but I totally know what you mean. She’s a rockstar- a rockstar at kissing ass and playing the game. And that’s what they love. Kelli and Judy don’t know these girls. The girls get zero personal interaction with them. So when they’re all together with Kelli and Judy, you’ve got 3/4 of the squad too intimidated to initiate at conversation, and you’ve got the Hollys and Jenn Ks of the world ready to pounce, kiss ass, and make sure they are front and center. Jenn K has pageant skills or PR skills or whatever you want to call it, and she worked it while the rest of them hung back with stars in their eyes scared of making a false move.

It's kind of weird that she would throw in that one move they use when they're heading out on the field for pregame, the one where they're marching in place for a few counts with one and on the hip and the other punches out at a low angle, then back to the hip, out and back tot the hip. That's an odd-looking move without poms. I guess it doesn't really matter if it's recycled moves, since it's pro prep class. You might as well do the same moves as the "real" cheerleaders, LOL.

The pain must be incredible! Well, this is probably why she's not with the team anymore (at least for now). It's definitely a season ending injury before the season even began. With the other injuries we've seen, if they happened during the season (Brook's is the only one I can think of and MAYBE Cassie's), the girls could still attend rehearsals and games even if they weren't dancing. If the injuries happen in Training Camp, the girls are usually dismissed. I don't know if this applies to Veterans, but it could. Hair whipping for three years could explain it. . . maybe. I hope a medical expert can chime in here, but I don't believe it. There have been too many girls who've made it through Training Camp and through numerous performances and yet, they've never mentioned have bulging discs in their necks/back. We've been told knees have blown out, tendons/ligaments snap, but they've been mainly leg injuries. I'm fairly certain that someone would have mentioned neck/back issues by now if it was such a prominent issue. Everyone is different. Some girls might be making the pain with pain medication. Who knows? I remember seeing Hannah in a neck brace and sat out some games. Link to comment
bigskygirl October 17, 2017 Share October 17, 2017 Brooke's injury was during Season 2 TC during a show group performance practice. Another girl went into the jump split too early or too late causing the injury to Brooke's knee. She was out for a while due to surgery and physical therapy, but she came back in late October or early December to the squad. I am sure Erica would have been with the squad unless her injuries were too severe to even try performing or going on appearances during the regular football season. Usually an injured veteran goes to the home games and practices unless they get a note from a doctor saying it is not safe to do so. I also do not think Judy and Kelli would cut a veteran for injuries unless the doctors say surgery and long term rehab sessions are needed. Also, I am sure they would be showing a vet leaving the squad because of injuries on the show and would have mention it by now in one of the episodes. Link to comment

Yeah there are still small groups of friends like Maggie, Heather, Tess etc etc but when I look at the retired girls like Holly, Kelsey, Roni, Nicole, Angela, Katy and their large group.

I guess it's one of those to each their own - I think Taryn is gorgeous. Is Jessika one that was a rangerette or whatever, with the super amazing kicks? I keep thinking that is part of her appeal, they never have to worry about her flexibility. At the beginning Taryn's smaller face proportions stood out to me, but as the training camp/season progressed her positive attitude won me over, and as a result I agree with you @LaurenBrook that every time I see Taryn on the screen now I think that she looks so pretty. 3 Link to comment
