Well, that’s good, as I am a computer nerd. Not hygiene impaired or lacking social graces, though.

So how you doin’?

You can [check out the team](http://www.uscdanceteam.com/gallery.htm) here. Cute girls, but they don’t dress like hookers or anything.

I know this is the wrong team, but after checking the images, I have to ask: Does this group represent three models of Cylon or four?

So, they’re all basically the same blonde girl with a couple of brunettes thrown in for good measure? haha. They remind me of the results of The Swan.

Whoops! I guess I didn’t read carefully. But I guess showing up in a thread with cute cheerleader pictures is like showing up at someone else’s house with beer: it’s never a bad thing.

I noticed that too. Eight blonde clones, three Asian clones, and a brunette. What ever happened to all the hot redheads?

If I worked for ESPN:

**"Coming from behind, Cocks slide past Beavers"**  
or  
**"In a rout, Beavers swallow Cocks whole"**  
or  
**"In a rout, Cocks manhandle Beavers"**

Ok. I’m done now. Maybe.

Definitely prefer the Carolina team, because their blondes don’t all look exactly alike.

Bootylicious white girls? Man those are sure some R. Crumb style females. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!

I think I see the problem here. In deconstructing their dance moves there is a definite purient subtext.

Specifically here

[Our pert breasts are firm and high](http://www.uscdanceteam.com/gallery/2001_2002/images/2001_0901_192847AA.JPG)

[Our shapely buttocks are tight](http://www.uscdanceteam.com/gallery/2001_2002/images/2001_0901_192915AA.JPG)

[Our eager vaginas are wide open](http://www.uscdanceteam.com/gallery/2001_2002/images/2001_0901_193131AA.JPG)

I think this subtext is coming from the viewer.

Actually, if he works on the meter a bit, he probably has a good cheer, there. Finish it up with Go Cocks!

Next time they should ditch the Coquettes and reunite the [Cockettes](http://www.geocities.com/WestHollywood/Heights/2493/cockettes.htm).
