Cheering is a SPORT!

[BISON]

if you have to defend your "sport" as being a sport (nascar) it probably is not a sport

[Lupin]

People just like NASCAR and cheerleading for the crashes.

According to OHSAA website, cheerleading is not a sport in Ohio.

Who would you consider more athletic? A cheerleader or a golfer?

[oubobcats]

Golf. Golf is considered a skilled sport like bowling, pool, darts, etc.

You named 4 activities where participants can drink beer and still be competitive. You forgot cornhole and horse shoes. Next time I am at a bar, bowling alley, picnic or golf course I am going to ask somebody to do a backflip with a full twist.

Just saying that I could take an average golfer and make that person a cheerleader faster than taking a cheerleader and making that person a golfer. It takes more skill to hit the golf ball strait than to memorize a good cheer. (by the way, we need to ask cheerleaders to stop doing back flips because they are getting injured at an alarming rate in this country.)

Competition cheering and doing sideline cheers are completely different.

Where do you golf? Have you seen some of the charactors at any of the courses in the Wheeling area? MUCH, MUCH easier to have a cheerleader hit a ball straight than to have them doing back flips. R U Kidding.

Usually when a person says that golf is easy does not play the SPORT or has ever attempted to play golf. Besides, the movies about golf are much better made and more popular than the movies about cheerleading.....If a cheerleader was any good at golf they would golf not be a cheerleader.

[Lakeshoredr]

Agree. Golf is tough to master but I started hitting staright as soon as I ease up a bit on my swing at the age of 12 but NEVER could do them flips.

[oubobcats]

Try easing up on the backflips and that will improve as well.

[ShylaStylez]

You boys have no idea.

[barefacts]

Cheerleading is not a sport. It's an activity and side-show. An annoying one at that.

[cas8043]

I have to give you credit barefacts, you are consistently negative.
