Cheerleading: Sport or Not?

Not so sure I agree with the Judge but then I think Title IX is silly anyway.

HARTFORD, Conn. -- Competitive cheerleading is not an official sport that [COLOR=blue! important][COLOR=blue! important]colleges[/COLOR][/COLOR] can use to meet gender-equity requirements, a federal judge ruled Wednesday in ordering a Connecticut school to keep its women's volleyball team.
Several volleyball players and their coach had sued Quinnipiac University after it announced in March, 2009 that it would eliminate the team for budgetary reasons and replace it with a competitive cheer squad.
