BET step off - Page 2

Hello Sorors,

Yesterday I had a chance to see the Ques and the Sigmas step, and I thought they both did really well!

I think it is kind of hard to really show case what you can do in a min., but at least it is positive exposure for us all. So I will be glued to BET Tonight.
My sister is a Zeta, so we have been going back and forth about who is going to out do who!!

Hey, Tenacious!!! Long time no talk to! (All my fault, but I luh ya!)

The step off is cool so far, and I will admit that I was impressed by the Omegas and Sigmas. They compressed a lot into one minute, and guy was working those staffs. (Yeah, I'm a little biased since I love using my cane.

) I thought the AKAs and Deltas were cool, too, but my boyfriend helped me see that the AKAs may have been a little tighter because how often do you see women represent in (cute) dresses and high-heeled sandals? That was a little more unique in my book.

I really appreciated how the reps are making sure to give a lot of information on their orgs. Could you tell that the AKA and Delta reps rehearsed their speeches? It was worth the time and effort.

I must say that the step off competition has been very enlightening and I'm impressed that so far all of the greeks have represented their organizations very well. Having to vote on-line really doesn't bother me one bit! Hey this is the new era we all live in and if you don't get on the technology bandwagon you just might get left behind! Sorhors we don't want you to be left behind? Sorhors just point and click!

Well, that also might be easier if BET.com site wasn't so rinky dink as well. I have been told all week that a number of people have had a hard time voting, that is has locked up (the site not their computer) and that is really ashame.

Kimmie1913, you ain't lyin! (Sorry, my Southern dialect has to come out.) I'm trying to vote now, and the crap is locked up. I've been against BET for about a year now, and they keep giving me reasons to dislike them and encourage people to boycott.

Then again, is the NPHC still trying to boycott?

your organization stepped well on bet. i tried to vote for the poodle prints, but bet.com wouldn't let me. actually, i tried a few times today and wasn't able to do it at any point. how many of you have been able to vote?

Without a doubt sorors....we did wonderful on BET!!

My sister and I (the Zeta) watched it together and needless to say...she was not happy.
I am soooooo proud of the sorors, the steps they used were great...especially with the little time they had. I hope and pray we all can vote so that they can represent again.

Ps. What's up Soror jojapeach...I have been slack on Greekchat (been busy at work) but it is good to hear from you as well. I like the disclaimer soror...

Tenacious1922 · #22 05-04-2002, 09:29 AM

Well I guess I will not be voting today!!

I just went to vote for us, and it kept saying something about I have to answer all questions first??????? So I went to the message board to see what was up (A BIG MISTAKE). There are some really ignorant people making crazy comments

I hope BET gets it together in time, but then again I am talking about BET.

dear god, I didn't have time to sit and fish through all that foolishness on the BET website. It was unbelieveable how much STUPIDITY is in there...there are maybe 20 decent replies in the WHOLE message board.

BET is throwing the NPHC a scrap so they wont boycott.

WHAT STEPSHOW lasts 60 SECONDS per team? thats barely enough time for an introduction.

you can't judge ANYTHIGN about an organization from the time they gave them to introduce and step.

I think the NPHC should BOYCOTT BET ANY damn way...this is an atrocity.

i think it might be available on monday.

(i hope)

so far i have not been able to vote for my sorors (didn't they look cute)

i don't know if it was meant to, but their outfits reminded me of a retro party. they were original and sparkly(i like sparkly things)

but i hope to see them in the finals next week.

soRHOrs, if you like I have the number to the associate producer from BET. Several of the soRHOrs in the Southeastern region have been flooding her voicemail, however there has not be a return call as of yet. soRHOrs are not telling her that they are members of Sigma Gamma Rho, sorority, INC. They are just expressing their difficulty in voting. If anyone wants it, I will be sure to post it later

SeriousSigma22 · #26 05-05-2002, 09:13 PM

Like everyone else I tried to vote several different times and I kept getting a message about answering some questions! Why do black folks aways have to do things the hard way!
