Go Team!
April 3, 2005
A funny article describes how cheerleading has changed since the early 1900s.
Wonderful:In 1911... A. Lawrence Lowell, the president of Harvard, called it the "worst means of expressing emotion ever invented."
and Surprising:
From 1982 to 2000, more than half of "direct catastrophic" injuries suffered by collegiate and high-school female athletes came from cheerleading.
I love watching cheerleading competitions. I always realize that I never want to be in a position where I have to muster up that much of that kind of spirit, and I am always very impressed by the cheerleaders' athleticism. It's obvious to me that they work really, really hard.
