Well, we have the HS thread. We have the football team thread. Now for the cheerleaders. But we don’t have to be like typical cheerleaders. (You know, like they are in the movies. Ignoring anyone who isn’t a cheerleader, being down right mean to the ones that don’t make the squad, etc.)
So, let’s hear it for the SDMB Cheerleading Squad!!
Rah Rah Ree! Kick 'em in the Knee!
Rah Rah Rass! Kick 'em in the
other Knee!!
jabs pomp pomp into the air and jumps up and down
Did I do good? I was never a cheerfollower, let alone a leader. I hope I did good and wasn’t an embarrassment to the SD crowd. smiles big, showing HUGE white teeth
Like, as if. I’m not talking to those loser chicks. They’re like, all grungy and into sci-fi and computers. Gag me.
So did you see this new cheerleading skirt I got? Isn’t it just, like, the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? But it makes my butt look fat, doesn’t it? C’mon, you can tell me the truth. My butt is just, like, as big as a truck. Oh look! Here comes Cindi!
Glad to see you registered finally! But gag me on a madonna-be, I hate perky people! Don’t tell me you’re a morning person too! Aaack! Cheerleaders should be given valium.
Where is the popular, sexy, ditzy, peppy, captain of the squad? As captain of the football team, I think it would be proper for us to hook up! (What a line huh?) Homecoming is coming up and I need a date. So what do you say?
Aenea, thanks! No, I’m not a morning person, and I’m not a cheerleader. I just thought it made sense to have a cheerleading squad. Anyway, we don’t have to have one. Maybe we could just be really bitchy, tired, not-at-all-perky cheerleaders?
BlindFaithe, Athena, welcome to the squad. Now, which one of you wants to be the captain? winks at Bear_Nenno
I’m the cheerleader for the Faculty of Linguistics.

Hey I used to be a referee and umpire. I was responsible for the safety of twenty-five people in a game. I’m not looking to get a hit, or to get hit. Please come on.
I am a soccer ref and I played high school football. If those two things, along with the fact that I have the body of a Greek god, don’t qualify me to be a spotter or male cheerleader, I’m lost.
BTW I can be downright depressing, so if we’re looking for not-peppy-all-the-damned-time, you’ve got yerself a volunteer.
Seeing as how I’ll be a frosh at the University of Chicago in the fall (39 days and counting! Whoo hoo!), I’ll chime in with the U of C’s “Scholarly Yell.” (Which, I might add, works well for the SDMB)
