I can't wait to come up with a controversial theme for next year. I'm thinking Cowboys/Indians, Heaven/Hell, Democrats/Republicans, or Union/Confederate. Any preferences that y'all would like to see? :-D
All-Star California Soul 5 Gospel Theme....

The religious theme itself is not offensive but the way it was executed is, in my opinion. The literal interpretations through stunts and definitely some of the voiceovers were too much.

Democrats/Republicans, you can use voiceovers from the debates.

AGREED. I get that they have the freedom to do so, but why even go there?

ok, I never come on these boards because quite frankly I find them annoying. However, I hear this topic needs a little addressing.
1- California Allstars is a Christian based organization. That shouldn't come as a supprise to anyone as we don't try to hide it.
2- We do pray after EVERY practice. Not because we are trying to push our beliefs on the athletes but were teaching them to have faith. As a matter of fact I remind them that they should all be praying to whatever THEY believe in.
3- Our parents and athletes are fasinated with this years routine and are nothing but excited. Definitely not offended.
4- The music DOES NOT say Califreakin Jesus. Anyone who knows me knows that I never even liked the Califreakinfornia so why would say Jesus? It says Thank You Jesus.
5- THIS IS JUST A THEME. Im not even religious myself and Im the one who came up with it. Not to offend anyone but to be different and STAND OUT. There has been a thousand other Gospel Themed mixes in the past and none spoken about.
Lastley- This routine was my Idea. Not Jeffs, not Tannaz's nor Kyles...Mine. So if anyone is gonna take the heat for it. I will. Frankly, opinions are just that, opinions. Some will love it AS THEY DO and some wont. You can't please everyone.
My intension was not to offend anyone but I can see two things that may come across offensive. The upside down cross and the Jesus only likes winners voiceover (which by the way was used on a very well known team back in 2003. ) WE DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING THEN. Both those parts will be reviewed and changed. My apologies for those of you that got offended. Again, that was not my intension.

I am a coach & parent and I used to work there. Yes ,we prayed prior to competiting just like I think every other team does. That just dosent mean they are really religious like the poster said. Thats all I was saying.

Sorry Orby, I know it wasnt the intent by you guys. It only made it uncomfotable that the theme was pushed in that direction with the voice overs. When I heard it in person it sounded like cali-freckin-jesus in the opening. I did not watch the video. So sorry for that if it says otherwise.

Let the board say Amen.
What teams are you most excited to see? Weber has become one of my favorites! Their stunting and tumbling skills are incredible!
