Cheerleading 2nd only to football in number of concussions

[El Supremo]

PHOENIX - Football players get the headlines, but on the sidelines the hits can be just as hard. Cheerleading can be dangerous.

Coach Vicki Jones has almost a dozen national cheerleading championships under her belt. She demands precision. Precision, she says, prevents injuries.

"They have to know their counts, they have to know where to be at the exact time they have to be there, they have to be very focused or someone will get hurt," she said.

Cheerleaders get hurt a lot. The Arizona Interscholastic Association says cheerleading is second only to football in number of concussions. That's why cheerleaders will have to get educated on concussions, right along with the contact sports....

5. What ya all needs is a Heroes trofee.

Oh wait, I guess that's been done...or is gonna get done.

See you in November, Condem. I'll be the guy with the gravy stains on his t-shirt inspecting the cheerleader, um, racks and moves and stuff.

7. Put no faith in the design of the Heroes trophy, Spiral.

After this travesty, I expect even worse. Probably a fuckin' fireman shaking hands with a Marine. How original. BTW. I'll be the one in black and gold.

6. I think you have spent way too many hours wandering through the cornfields, Condem.

If you are really talking about the little picture, then I am really concerned about you. Take care, my friend. At least El Supremo only worships George W. Bush and his Texas Rangers!!

:P

8. In all seriousness, mad, The Iowa Corn Growers are doing their best...

..to wipe the shit off their face for this udder embarassment. I mean look at the size of the corn. Just awful. The big dailies are polling and 95% hate it. The folks present when they unveiled this piece of shit are STILL laughing. Oh well. Less than two weeks. Cheers!
