Due to intense lobbying by the Spandex Industry and feminazis, anyone can make a cheerleading or team spirit squad, these days ... even if they can't lift their foot more than 1 inch off the ground. I went to a high school football game with a friend several years back. The game was awful, but the team's spirit squad was "entertaining." I have never seen SO MUCH spandex in my life! And thank goodness for it ... I cannot imagine the ocular damage that would have ensued in the stands if the majority of their bodies had gone uncovered. Most of 'em were on the large side of an average body build for 16 to 18 year-old girls. But, there were three young women on the squad who were absolutely, undeniably at least 250 lbs. + ... two of 'em were a helluva lot closer to 300, than 250! They must have been closely related to Michelle Obama.
We gave 'em props for bein' out there tryin', but ... woof!
