How long before they have to wear helmets?

shortstopmom:

TR suggested you get a not split cup...with the ferocity that everything is getting thrown around in here this morning I'm happy to offer you this not split cup...you're gonna' need it!





I thought it would give you a little support and protection...you need all of the supporters you can get!

Hey Woodsman,..always looking out for us in the interest of safety-first, you are!!! You da man!

Not sure I really need this,...but I do know, that if I decide to not go a-natural,
I most definately will need a bigger size.
( this one is MUCH too small! wink-wink )


...and to think I thought he said, " Why not get a spit cup? "!

gotwood,

Is that actual size?

shortstopmom...you and your winking eye!



Give a hoot! Don't pollute! That's shortstopmom!

And PG...Yup! One-size-fits-all! Do you think it will do any good to soak it in water overnight?

I can say with a fair ammount of certainty... One size does not fit all!!!

And of course with a little good ol' shortstopmom handiwork you could fashion a pair of these from your 'not split cup' and use them to sneak out of this argument!

Well there is one way to get out of this mess...you press this button right here next to the cup holder...the one labeled 'No Other Option Remains'...



I tell you what...you turn this ATEC machine up to 11 and it launches a single seater heater like no one's business!

Mission control to PG...How's the view from up there? Can we get you a complimentary soft drink? Although you are in a upright and locked position your tray table wasn't...we've picked it up on radar...and shame on you PG...you didn't finish your vegetables!

Now back to the game...



What inning are we in guys?

I decided to delete part of that previous post. Some might say it was R rated!

Back to anything except cups!

You are correct PG...that is why I posted the picture of that leather clad orb thingamajig.

The cheerleaders show up at All the baseball games around here. But at the ballpark they are known as girlfriends.

(And they have excellent taste in men I might add.)

sluggo

as girlfriends they are not in cheeleading gear, thus not cheerleaders


got wood

As for support I have all that I need right here all around me and they are true supporters---

You are hilarious, you know that don't you?

Just some NY humor from our wide open spaces of suburbia

[/QUOTE]Bee Quote,
bingo ... you da lady now!
when are the walk-on tryouts for the fishing team?[/QUOTE]

Careful Bee, College fishing teams are a lot bigger than you may think.

CBAA

I've got my supporters too TR...

The Flying Buttress Brothers...




Closely related to these guys...

Seems like I remember TR being a professional bass fisherman! Do they give full rides in that sport?

BTW, Don't ask Beenthere what he thinks about professional fishing

Not only full rides, but plenty of safety features also...

PG


They do not give full rides for them

BUT

ESPN owns BASS and there is a load of money involved---All saturday morning on ESPN2

I never considered it a sport--it is a skill and at times a test of endurance what with weather and all factoring in

quote:

BTW, Don't ask Beenthere what he thinks about professional fishing

but who'd ever wanna quit fishing? and in our group the $$ flows quite the opposite way as it does for the pros

tho I did see a LPGA golfer yesterday who looked like she was considering quitting & getting a real job after blowing a 4 shot lead w/4 holes left ...
a little (OK, alot of) tequila and she'll be back to normal
priceless was the speechless little 18yr old Pressel who finished at -4 to become the youngest major winner ever

the $300K paycheck aint to shabby for a "skilled atheletic activity" which some say is NOT really a sport

BEE


I quit the fishing trail when my sons got into LL---like baseball more than a long day on the lake in competition--BUT--still love the fishing aspect for relaxation--not enough hours in the day.

As usual it is all about choices !!!

yup, the days need more hours for sure

back to the kid ... after the win she hits the lake .. followed by her caddy,
aaand of course her GRANDMA!!

Thats one coooool Gram's!!!

And if I'm not mistaken ,
I believe it looks like she is
prepping to do a cheerleader
triple toe touch, mid air, before hitting the water for her landing!
She needs a little more height in her verticle,..and the toe should be pointed,
( not flexed ),....arms should be straighter,
but all in all,
I give her an 8+ for one heck of a great attitude!

The caddy is obviously doing a simple cannonball. While it doesnt rank high,
as far as technique & competitive stats are concerned,
...it can still prove to be quite effective.
( and hecka' fun!)

Now do we discuss GOLF as a sport or a skill???

Let's see Bee>...Pressel, her caddy, and her grandma...all in a water hazard...how many penalty strokes?

and what about NASCAR drivers wearing DIAPERS---that is the latest rumor

how many penalty strokes?

this is a PG rated board ie: the wet-shirt )- I can't reply

No penalty will be assessed as long neither grandma or the caddy are wearing a thong.

WHY CHEERLEADING IS NOT A SPORT
by BUM de la BUM BUM da BUM

A baseball player spins a miniature ball out of his hand

A cheerleader spins a baton in her hand

A baseball player climbs the back of his teammate following a brilliant score

A cheerleader climbs the back of her teammate during the musical score

A baseball player can quote statistics and numbers in citing his favorite team

A cheerleader can chant "2 - 4 - 6 - 8" in supporting her favorite team

A baseball player trains through grueling regimine to perfect his art of catching a ball, or swinging a bat

A cheerleader trains through equal discipline to perfect her art of catching one's freefall, or swinging a teammate

A baseball player plays a sport because, well, it's baseball

A cheerleader DOES NOT play a sport because, well, JT says so

Very good Bum. The only problem is JT's word...it's been suspect the last couple of days!

Stomp stomp clap clap double flip toss!
Bum Bum he's our Man,..if he cant do it, no one can!!
Yeahhhhh BUM!!!!!

Those would be what are commonly known as a "majorette".

Ok, ok, details, details...


"A cheerleader spins a 'majorette' in her hand".

Why Beezer,...that's a true sign of one very involved and up-to-the-moment, on-task, well informed cheerleader dad!!!

I am QUITE impressed!!!!
Extra cupcake for you!!!!

I just want to make sure the cheerleader bashers have the right info.

Don't worry Beez...I think they're well equipped to take care of themselves!



And...yes...one of my daughters was on her school's cheerleading squad this past winter. They all did a good job and were serious about their performances and contributions.

With all due respect to the cheerleader parents and their offspring....I agree with the SI article.

Girls capable of that much athleticism should be in between the lines being cheered, not "supporting" from the sidelines. Unless, of course, it's still the '50's and I've missed something.

The company I work for takes the photos for most of the cheerleading competitions in Florida. While this thread seems to be talking primarily about the hs-college cheerleaders, the young girls in these competitions (starting at 5 years old, for crying out loud) look like little Jon Benet clones....as if cheerleading has become an acceptable-because-it-purports-to-be-a-sport alternative to the makeup and fancy dress of Little Miss Beauty pageants. But they add in suggestive movements. Not my idea of what young girls should value or how they should think of themselves.

And I NEVER want to see cheerleaders at a baseball game (don't you dare get your backside in my way when I'm watching a game!). And I've always credited baseball fans with being smart enough to know when to cheer all by themselves.

Don't ever get my wife going on cheerleaders despite the fact that the 0ne year oold grandson loves to wave his pom pom in the stands as they perform
