Yea just b/c you get hurt doesnt mean its a sport lol .. when you start throwing girls 20-25 feet in the air and miss them then your prolly going to break ur leg .. but that shows heart that they get back up and compete .. cheerleading is a sport in a way, but at our school our girls hate our football team so that in the definition of a cheerleader makes them not a cheerleader .. everyone is proud of ur efforts and accomplishments but when you say that cheerleading is more physical and takes more than football and basketball ur wrong .. there is no judges in other sports to decide who was prettier or who didnt mess up .. u win by playing hard .. this is what classifies cheerleading as not a sport .. they dont go hard or hustle .. they work on looking good and not messing up .. dont take up for cheerleading b/c u are one .. get over the fact that ur not a sport but you are the biggest fans and are greatly appreciated for supporting ur team

Figure Skating and Gymnastics are also judged and they are considered sports. SO "UR" point is? Every sport requires a different athletic ability. And the little highlighted statement you made is so far off you have no clue. To start things off it is, There are, NOT, there is. And yes, you do have judges in all "UR" sports. They are called Officials and one in football is actually called a Back Judge. These Officials make judgement calls the entire ball game. "UR" sports score points by crossing the goal line, placing the ball in the basket or crossing home plate. They are required to do a certain thing in order to score. If you knew anything about Cheerleading you would also know that in order to score, they are required to do certain things also. NOT LOOK PRETTY! Some things are worth more points than others. Just like a Free Throw, 3-point shot, touch down, extra point, field goal, Solo HR or a Grand Slam! I will end here by saying that you have no clue!
