New York Times- Competitive cheerleading is not an official sport that colleges can use to meet gender-equity requirements, a federal judge ruled Wednesday in ordering Quinnipiac University to keep its women’s volleyball team. The parties in the case said it was the first time the issue had been decided by a judge.
Several volleyball players and their coach sued Quinnipiac, in Hamden, Conn., after it announced in March 2009 that it would eliminate the team for budgetary reasons and replace it with a competitive cheer squad.
So volleyball finally called cheerleading out for not being a real sport. Let's just say, I agree with their position. But before we start going all nuts here about women's volleyball, etc. Let's take a second to analyze the sport of Women's College Volleyball. In women's volleyball, the uniform says it all...
Personally, I am indeed a fan of the standard volleyball uniform. But let's not get ahead of ourselves saying that women's volleyball is some special aw inspiring sport. If the sport was something special then chicks wouldn't be dressed like this to grab attention/fans that they're not related to... Conclusion: Women's volleyball players are just more athletic/competive cheerleaders, they dress to draw attention, they have premeditated cheers and they put streamers in the hair.
