This could be a good or bad thing. A few always seem to be a little "corn fed" if you know what I mean...

I still think the Texas and Oklahoma teams usually have the best looking dance and cheerleaders.

On the cheer squad it's more than a few the last 2 years. Not trying to be mean, just stating a fact.

During my time at ISU, I didn't know any gymnasts or pom squad girls, nor ever lived next to any, nor ever dated any, nor ever married any, nor did any of them ever have their way with me...I feel so left out and empty...

I hear ya. I'm stayin' out of this one for a lot of reasons - but fun to read.

Sadly but at 26 I feel like a dirty old man looking at those pics. Plus, I have to keep them away from the fiance so she doesn't start questioning me.

I thought Shannon Miller went to U of Oklahoma after the USA won the gold medal. Maybe she was not out for gymnastics.

Lets just say I tested the waters in the womens sports realm, lol.

Shawn Johnson "turned pro" and accepted sponsors money. I think this is why she cannot compete in the NCAA. Similar to the Lucca situation, well not really but you know what I mean. If an athlete competed in the olympics but didn't accept any sponsor money, then I think they can compete in college.

Most Olympic gymnasts are nearing retirement by the time they reach college age!

I'm friends with lots of cheerleaders and dancers, and even a few gymnasts and softball players, but holy crap, guys- have any of you ever gone to a gymnastics meet (or national cheer/dance competition, for that matter) just to watch a Cyclone team compete, rather than ogling young women? If not, I highly recommend it. If you can get past the shiny uniforms, we put out a DAMN good gymnastics team on a consistent basis. Hell, we were in the Super Six two years ago! I'm a huge wrestling fan and an even bigger football addict, but I maintain that volleyball and gymnastics are the two best spectator sports this university has to offer. (No spandex-shorts comments, k thx.) Both have lots going on at all times, with little to no dead time. Especially in gymnastics, you get to see a wide variety of things, even within a single event, and the floor exercises are basically my favorite thing to watch in all of collegiate athletics. On top of that, meets are cheap as dirt- you can bring the whole family for next to nothing. I'm telling you, make it out to the first meet- you'll be hooked for the rest of the season like I was. You'll be seeing me at every meet this year!

Went to all of them last year, and plan to do the same this year ornry.

**PolkCityClone** · 12-11-2007, 11:10 PM

What a group of pervs. These women are some Daddy's little girl and what if that was your daughter?

**JHudd** · 12-11-2007, 11:31 PM

I would probably know the same is being said about her that I have said in the past.(Most likely every male has made comments similar to these one time or another.) Not saying that it is right but just smart enough to know that it will happen. Otherwise how else would she have ever been conceived? Those same thoughts that little Billy is having when he takes her to the prom are the same ones that I had that brought her into this world.

Now a disclaimer, I don't have a daughter but I also don't think it is bad when people comment on an attractive female. I haven't read anything disrespectful and I think that our moderators do a good enough job to get rid of something that would be considered so. If the world ever gets to a point where I can't point out a female being attractive well that is just a world I don't want to live in.

If people don't like these types of threads, don't read them. I don't bother with the political garbage here because I find it boring. There's been no inappropriate comments in here. I find it amazing how people complain all the time when all they have to do is leave the thread and move on.
