Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team 2007

[chitownxo]

I loved Meredith Oden, and was pretty excited that Natalie and Candice made the squad this year. Kelly Jo was okay, but I just don't get the Loni thing. I've heard that during the kicklines Loni heads back to the sidelines. I just don't think she's as polished as the other ladies.

And don't forget Ryan, too. I'm so glad that last year didn't deter them from trying out again. My favorites rookies are Christina Murphey, Erica Jenkins, and Kristen Geuthier.

I like those performance outfits on the night before the game. I want one of those Barbie dolls.

I've been following this show since it premiered. I loved the Barbie dolls.

I totally don't get why they took Loni. I mean, Kelly Jo was okay and kind of "on the bubble" but Loni seemed to really struggle with the kick line toward the end.

I think Loni and Kelly Jo lucked out that Brooke was hurt. Why? Because without Brooke, the ideal-sized squad would have been at 35 isntead of 36, and they may have needed at least 36 for some reason. So then the issue becomes which of the bad kickers do you cut? Its not fair to cut one for kicking bad, and not the other. It's just a theory--because I can't figure out why they kept both those ladies. They have cut other people for less.

Of course, maybe Kelly Jo and Loni just have fantastic personalities or jobs that allow them to do all kinds of appearances--who knows.

I was disappointed that Melissa Rycroft, Candace Carr, and Natalie Woods weren't on there. I wonder if Kelly Jo and Loni tried out. Judy Trammell's daughter is on the list. I wasn't that surprised that she would try out. I was also hoping that Nina Moch would try out again, but I bet that she didn't.

I wonder if Crystal and Trisha are related.

According to the CMT website MTT Message Board, Kelly Jo was cut; Melissa, Candace, & Natalie did not try out. Crystal & Trisha are sisters.

The most exciting part of the article on the official DCC website...

"As was the case for the last three years, CMT is again covering the DCC selection and training process in the "Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Making the Team" series which will premiere later this year. "

YEAH!!!!

I'm totally addicted to this show!!!
