I think Varsity would rather set fire to themselves then support anything Nfinity is doing...

SE bag bids are now at over $16k :eek:
SSX is also approaching $1000.

Where did you see the 16k? I may be looking at the wrong thing, but it's still showing $14,600 for me on Ebay

How are the athletes learning valuable lessons about charity with this, exactly?

They signed a bag.

By all means, auction it off, raise millions for these charities!! But if anyone thinks it taught Spoiled Suzy anything (except that she's soooo amazing that people spent thousands for her autograph) I'm calling bullpoo.

And let me know when owners take teams to visit a nonprofit, inner city cheer gym to conduct a free week-long cheer camp with no media coverage. I'll be the first one to write a check.

One shimmy just isn't enough.

It's not CSP. I was in a meeting with her yesterday during the time that it went up to 14K. I saw her reaction when she realized it had gone up that high and she was just as shocked as everyone else. Not to mention that we'd been in a meeting and she hadn't touched her phone.

Ebay has automatic bidding so the bidder would not have to be online during the bidding process until it hits the maximum amount they've pre-approved. At that time, Ebay would contact the bidder that they have been outbid.

i followed the tweets of one team that won at CL. not one tweet about their charity, before or after the event. just complaints/confusion about their placement. lots of talk about becoming "movie stars" though!

not gonna name any names, but they have a youtube show.

To be fair, have any athletes from any team mentioned anything about their charity before, during, or after the event?

I shall volunteer as tribute (nonprofit not-quite gym) if any cheer program wants to make that free week-long camp happen :)

They did show that Top Gun footage from NCA and Worlds in the cheer night out movie. They must have gotten approval from Varsity for that :P

I don't think the top bidder bid that much just because it was a SE signed bag, at least I hope not. I'm thinking and hoping that this was this person's way of doing something amazing for a cause so close to their cheer family. It would really show the recipient of the money how much she is loved and cared for. I'd feel pretty loved and supported if someone bid that much on a backpack no matter what it had on it. I could be totally off but, for now, I'd like to think this.
ETA- I had a lot of people donate a lot of money to me two years ago to literally save my life so I know there are people out there that do these things.

Really??? the cheerleading community has raised thousands of dollars for those that were sick, those that were hurt, and even those that needed help sending their children to Worlds - athletes, parents, coaches and gym owners give often as you well know. These "Spoiled Suzies" may not have ended world hunger - and I haven't seen one athlete try to say they have (and btw you have no idea what any of them do individually or as teams for charity outside of the CL), but they did more than sign a bag. They could have received warm-ups, backpacks, and other items as prizes and instead voted to forgo the prizes so that $20,000 went to charities on Sunday night. I don't think any of them are bragging about it or thinking they are in line for the Nobel Peace Prize, but they shouldn't be knocked as selfish brats just because you don't agree with what Nfinity chose to do this backpack fundrasier.

Oh wait,they didn't get another backpack or warm up by giving up their winnings to charity?!? WELL THAT changes everything!

I really see where @Mamarazzi is going here. We used to have discussions about this at the gym often that the kids needed to get out working and seeing what was really out in the world. That being said the charity idea for the bag is nice but I don't think it's teaches a huge lesson. ESPECIALLY when the argument is they gave up warm ups and backpacks or other items that they've already been given 10 times over before. I hope you realize how comments like those only intensify the elitist perception.
