Wonder how Mama Kalimantan is liking that? Hope she doesn’t dump Kelli as a friend! Hope Kelli isn’t desperate enough to shuffle the dancers around to keep this so called friend using her. I'm glad that Victoria is hidden. I wonder if it's another of Kelli's strategies to keep Victoria under the radar in the hopes that people forget about her and the fact that she didn't earn her spot the way the rest of the rookies had to. Tina, on the other hand, probably wants Victoria front and center so that people actually know she's there and rocking it. The hidden spot may also help to hide Victoria's lack of technique and all of her mistakes, including being able to turn. 11 Link to comment

scorpio1031 August 27, 2019 Share August 27, 2019 So, if Rachel is back on Thursday and another girl sits out the game, then that means more changes to the formation. Add to that all the other changes...…..you might as well rotate in the group leaders and game day girls to the triangle. 12 minutes ago, EricaShadows said: I'm glad that Victoria is hidden.

With "the largest # of returning vets ever" this shouldn't be the case. Maybe they should have cut more vets. Several are dancing with no energy. 4 Link to comment
HideyYall August 27, 2019 Share August 27, 2019 I was at the game. They all looked incredible. To answer the question about why Rachel didn't do Thunderstruck, is because it is only for 36 girls. There have been injuries in the past and that is why 37 were taken on the team. Two girls were told that they would rotate. I don't know who the other is.

I'm a pretty easy going gal, but if I were a veteran, I'm fairly sure I would not be happy about sitting out games. I most likely would not say anything about it, but inside I would be ticked off! I wouldn't be happy about it as well if I were a rookie, but as a rookie, I think I would just be glad I made the team. I think all the changes that K & J have made to the formations have made a mess out of things. Just pick one person to be point, no sharing. Choose an even number of cheerleaders and use all of them throughout the game OR declare at the beginning of auditions, that one or two gals will be selected to be alternates. It seems like having a rotation was a last minute decision, one I doubt the gals like at all. As others have mentioned, many of the ladies seem to be rather listless and lack fire.

I know that goes against the narrative anyone wants to hear, but apparently she is really lots of fun. Most people's problem with Victoria isn't about her as an individual, just as it wasn't about Cassie as an individual. My problem with her situation is the favoritism. Her weight gain in camp last year coupled with her blowing off Jinelle and lying about is would have gotten anyone else dismissed. Was Chelsey Chaney really that much worse that her behavior required mid-camp dismissal of a veteran? Was Tara so much worse last season than Victoria? No. We have no idea what happens in Kelli's private life, but I'd say there's a really good chance that Victoria got a fuckton of personal attention and guidance this past year. There's a huge difference between cutting someone and encouraging her to return and cutting someone while assuring her she's 100% going to make it next time. Victoria very likely had opportunities other girls wouldn't get. I think the panel interviews are prime examples of bias, favoritism and editing. I loathe the super vague questions like "does the uniform make the girl or the other way around?" Or "what does the star stand for?". There's really no right or wrong answer and it's up to the judges to react to what you say. Victoria's answer about cutting Miss Charlotte wasn't funny or creative, they just like her so they reacted as if she'd thrown out award winning comedy. 26 Link to comment

I beg to differ on this. There is only one answer to "what does the star stand for" and the point of it is to assess whether they've done ANY research at all about the organization they're trying out for. Anyone who gets this wrong didn't even bother googling it because you get the answer just from doing that. 6 Link to comment

I can see that for traditional cheer squads...they’re usually packed full of petite gymnasts. Pom squads and drill teams, tho? Tall girls all day every day. Just depends on if the school is large enough to support different types of squads. Exceptions everywhere, of course. It’s interesting to me the type of build that Kelli allows for the shorties on the squad. Brianna and Mackenzie Lee seem to be very lean in proportions versus the gymnast type build of Keyra. All are great examples of fitness, of course, but the boots really do swallow some of these gals up. Edited August 27, 2019 by kalibean Link to comment
