Despite your bad spelling, the answer's quite simple:\n\nThey couldn't find enough "Crack Hos" in New York who could stay on their feet long enough......

Just as any anything else, cheerleading has quite a history behind it. In ancient times spectators cheered for runners in races held during the first ever Olympic Games in ancient Greece. In the 1860's students in Great Britain began cheering at competitive sporting events and soon the idea spread to the United States. At Princeton in New Jersey, in 1865 the first pep club was formed and they created the first-known cheer: \n"Tah rah rah\nTiger Tiger Tiger\nSis sis sis\nBoom boom boom\nAaaahhhhh!\nPrincton! Princeton! Princeton!"(Kuch 9)\nThe history of organized cheerleading started in 1898. The University of Minnesota was having a pitiful football season. One fan decided to write a letter to the Ariel, "The Official Paper of The University of Minnesota," and complain. He wrote "Everyone's been crying, 'Keep up your spirits, and we will have a winning team bye and bye.' I say give us a winning team and our spirits will take care of themselves." (Froiland 13)

Boys that pick cheerleaders are usually intimidated by athletic girls!  They are afraid of losing!!

Have you ever seen some of the women that actually play full contact football? Looks like a team of high school lunch ladies!

no because cheerleaders represent the school and someone like you who only wants to wear "rape me" clothes should not be a cheerleader.

Because they are so crap at things like football that should by some miracle they ever win the odd game they go ballistic.\n\nAnyone remember the world cup song Ally's Army? making a big deal out of the fact that England didn't qualify - why do we never bother doing that with the Jocks? probably because it happens so often but the skirt wearers were over-joyed, how did the Jocks do in that world cup i wonder?\n\nAnswers on a mouldy haggis please.

they're usually club-sports not necessarily funded by the school. the main football team is the competitive one that gets all the money and intercollegiate will play other clubs but probably have to raise a lot of their own money and athletes may not be recognized as easily for getting out of classes, etc.

Other girls are often jealous and feel the need to put cheerleaders down because they want to feel better about themselves. Childish? Yes! Does it happen? Oh yeah. Try not to let it bother you too much:) \n\nP.S. Congrats on becoming a cheerleader! My daughter is on her high school squad and loves it too.

I know the Pittsburgh Steelers was the first team in the NFL to have cheerleaders, but that was in the 1960's.  They were called the Pittsburgh Steelerettes.

cheerleaders usually have larger chests than gymnasts so they would probably prefer cheerleaders whom are just as flexable.

**** ALL OF YOU WHO SAY ITS NOT A SPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im not a slut and nethier are most of my teamates we bust our butts harder than most people that are in sports my age and you havent even seen how bad you can hurt yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nCompetition is DEFINATLY a sport its acctually the most deadly one and you can only do it through high school (in a gym) or college! I half agree with the first answer if u are a little football cheerleader and ur not very good than it's not really a sport but if its 4 ur school u had to be good 2 make it (unless ur team suks then its not a sport)

For the fictional movie I believe that is the case they want you to believe. In actuallity no. The cheerleaders and players are not a part of the same union and therefore would not be on strike for the same time and issues.

i think the only cheerleaders who should ever be at a game are the fans

Too bad the Bears don't have cheerleaders any more.  Rumor has it that the McCaskeys did away with cheerleaders because they felt it didn't reflect the family atmosphere that they are going for at Soldier Field.

Err... why the hell should we? \n\nWe've already got Mcdonalds, thats more than enough americana for anyone, thanks.  Anyway, cheerleaders would get laughed off the pitch at proper footie games.

I think that the key part of "cheerleader" is "leader."  You are part of a group and must learn the drills to do your part.  You are also most visible at games, etc. and can set a good role model for others by being cheerful, friendly and respectful.  One squad always kneals as a group when a player is down injured and cheers when he gets up (whether from the home team or visitors).  Do you have an opportunity to make visiting cheerleaders welcome, even though your schools are strong rivals?  You can help teach good sportsmanship and how to be good sports, regardless of the score.  Cheerleading squads can be cliquish and part of the in crowd.  The most beautiful girl in my high school class was a cheerleader and the friendliest girl to everyone in our class, where she was also an officer.  We lost her suddenly to lukemia right after our football season (we didn't know) and she is still sorely missed many years later.  In short, be yourself.
