I'm actually NOT one of Carly's 7900 Twitter followers ;)
I'm not either and I'm not speaking specifically of any CA athletes, just generally.

We don't do treadmill. We do TUMBLTRAK!It was a very superficial article. Half of it about a sleepover, a good chunk filled with drama I'm pretty sure didn't happen, And 1 paragraph for Worlds. Loved the treadmill comment, that was SO taken out of context it made me laugh.
Agreed. I have to wonder how a video companion piece to this article would support or refute the reporter's perspective.
Okay I must be in the minority here, but I really like that the author talked about the party and the fire. I thought it was interesting and gave those of us that don't stalk Cheer Athletics a chance to learn what some of the inside jokes and voiceovers came from.
I found the article on tumblr and was so ecstatic about cheer maybe getting the credit we deserve, I read it. Honestly a lot of it sounded like those "the clique" books that a lot of 6th graders in middle school read. But for the people that look up to those girls like Carly, she is one of my role models; yet they played her out to be spoiled like, when they could of easily played up that yes she is 14 but she is an amazing cheerleader like the entire team.
I was so mad how they talked about Victoria. They acted almost as if she was a cry baby. the girl is so FIERCE. Her "falling on her booty" I do that at least once a practice, who can help it if you loose air control? I sure can't, it's not a big deal happens to all of us.
That fire, oh my gosh. Seriously? Was that needed for a darn CHEERLEADING article. No, it wasn't. Did the writer want all their readers to think "wow, cheerleaders are horrible people, the state was in a drought and they still did that. Are they dumb?"
For entertainment it wasn't bad, like if it was a fictional book. But...a non-fiction article about a world champion team, WHAT WAS THE AUTHOR THINKING?! (Yes, I really did scream that, caps are so needed) :banghead:
I read them then too.Bahaha i read those in 6th grade! (I'm in 8th, so not too long ago!)
