Also, alot of times when you tell them that what they post can affect real life, they kind of roll their eyes and say "whatever, that won't happen."

I think kids can benefit from actually seeing that the things you put out there can affect you in real life, whether it's with applying for jobs, going through recruitment, trying out for a team like DCC, ANYTHING.


Well said! And in one of my classes, my professor said that bosses can google your name for background information. So if you have any damaging photos that will ruin your chances at anything, take them down immediately! Also, clean up your profile and have an appriate e-mail address without any strong words or symbols in there (like the two numbers that look identical when you flip them). Because if someone googles your name and see something that is not right or if you have an e-mail address that looks too risque, then... you know what happens.

Just a mini-hijack.

This show is one of my reality show favorites. The coach and his wife were also on an episode of one of the wife swap shows.

To be honest, I think professors telling their classes this is a little extreme. I also heard this a lot in college, and I followed this rule and blocked my facebook pics when I was applying for jobs, but left webshots up and you can easily find pics on there when you google my name. Now, having worked for 3 companies in the HR/recruiting field, I have never once googled somebody. Nor do I know of any people in the same industry who have done this. I'm sure some employers do, but it doesn't seem to be the big deal that everyone makes it out to be.

I will agree with you on the email address though, and same goes for voicemail. I've seen so many applications and resumes with "sexiigurl2005" or REALLY risque ones. As far as voicemails- atleast change it to slightly more professional, you don't have to go overboard. I just hate hearing music blaring, a lot of slang terms, or especially horrible ringbacks.

Back to DCC, I'm surprised Leah was cut. It seemed like they really only picked on her that one night, then she was done. I'm glad Alyssa is still in the running, she's my favorite rookie!

The girl I know got cut in this past episode. Kinda sucks for her, but I don't know how far she thought she'd go. She was on a dance team in HS, for maybe like 2 years, but I wouldn't consider her a "dancer" and she wasn't ever a cheerleader (well not that i know of).

sunnyhibiscus 11-13-2008 11:39 PM

Five of those people that were cut (either from last year's squad or from the training camp rounds) are now Dallas Mavericks Dancers. I think that something like the Dallas Maverick Dancers, Dallas Desperados Dancers or the Dallas Ice girls are for those who want to develop for the DCC, for those who have run out of mileage for the DCC, or who is not cut out for the DCC.

And it's a little late for this, but I have a feeling that Megan Fox will be the head choreographer of the DCC one day.

Next week is the season finale. I have a feeling that one of my favorites would be the last cut, based on next week's preview.

As for tonight's episode, I wasn't surprised that Sunni was cut. She had a lack of endurance.

KSUViolet06 11-22-2008 07:17 PM

I feel like they made more cuts toward end of this season's training camp (like, in the last 2 episodes) than they did last season. They seemed to be a lot more particular this year and not taking on some "on the bubble" girls who may have made the cut last season.

I remember that last season, they even took on more girls than they were planning (38 instead of 36). They probably feel as though they were too lenient last year (even taking on a girl who could barely do the kick line).

I really liked Alyssa and I hope she tries out again next year.

*bump*

I've read on the official website that the DVDs of the past seasons are in the works. I hope that it gets on DVD. By the way, I love the new website. I'm sure many of you have seen it. I love the cheerleaders' blogs. They offer great tips and insights.

The Pro Bowl Representative is Nicole Hamilton. I guess that she have redeemed herself after missing that NFC division question.

And auditions start on May 10th, which is on a Sunday. I think that it's weird to have auditions on a Sunday, especially with many people going to church.

Well, the games are on Sundays. So if Sundays are out of the question, they shouldn't be there.

Jennifer McMahon gone ?
 
I read rumors on two different DCC message boards (yahoo DCC group & cmt.com) that Jennifer McMahon might have been kicked off the squad. Her profile, blog, and individual picture are gone from the official DDC site. She is still on the group picture. Anybody hear anything about this?

You came to GreekChat and signed up just to post that? Axe to grind much?

Bumping because the website says they'll be airing Season 4 this fall... yay! And a couple of the girls from last year's training camp are back: Brandi Kilby (the one who looked like a stripper) and Sunni Cranfill.

KDAngel 06-21-2009 11:19 PM

I love this show, but I don't watch CMT aside for this so please bump it again when it's going to air again.

WenD08 06-23-2009 05:22 PM

not until the fall. the air date hasn't been announced.
