I have to agree, unless you made it to finals, then you really didn't place. It's all a technicality really, but that's my opinion about the subject.

Normally i would agree but since this is int'l were talking about and with that stupid 3 team rule, i dont.

what's so "Stupid" about the 3 team rule? if you're not good enough to make it in the top 3 US teams then you're simply not, but to keep using the "stupid 3 team rule" as an excuse why you didnt make finals is just well "stupid"

Umm.... actually not! Im not even on a internatonal team. I just think its stupid that half the thems from different countries sucked and they made it to finals over us teams that were actually good. And just so you know my gym has an international team and they won their division so thank you very much.

Here's a novel idea - if you don't like it don't cheer in the international division. I think the idea is to encourage Worlds to be "Worlds" and not just a Nationals. Right now, "Nationals" are actually 'regionals' or 'states' competitions. Yes, it sucks if you were the 4th best US team - sorry, either get your game on next year or don't go international.

I for one would love to see cheer in the olympics but without encouraging other countries to 'cheer' it will never happen.

Once it is in the olympics, us coaches and choreographers will finally be acknowledged for what we do. Then you will see true US All-Star teams. WOW!

very well said. I agree 100%

Just to bring it to everyones attention...if only the top three teams made it to finals in the regular divisions some of the teams that won medal's wouldn't of even been in finals to begin with...just something to think about and why some of us do not agree with this rule. However, I am with the person who says if you don't like don't support it. I will not be supporting it next year thats for sure.

Does anyone else wonder why if it's called "Worlds" the teams from outside the US are in a completely different division? I mean I understand the fact that this is a US sport and the other countries are catching up and all, but it seems funny that it's separated, and that we have US teams that specifically enter the international division. If it was truly a Worlds competition, then why wouldn't everyone compete in the same divisions?

It's like a Worlds competition, with US teams that only compete against other US teams in international divisions all year, and then the rest, who are really competing in a "Nationals" not a "Worlds" competition. Does that make sense?

dont want to burst your bubble but neither team made it to finals so they were not placed. Annnnd, even if you counted them as placing, it would be below the last place team that made it to finals and placed, which for rockiez was 17th. They were not in tenth. get over it. your coaches are lying, and you are believing it. i guess we shouldnt really expect much from your gym anyways.

im not worried about anything as you have no idea what gym i am from. you may think you do, but bottom line is, you dont. by the way, when they posted that on their website that is able to be accessed by the public, it becomes everyones business.

Is anyone else SICk of the Cheerforce and california crying and whining. You guys may be good on the mat, but you DRIVE the rest of california crazy being BIG FAT BABIES about everything. Go fight about whose uniforms are cuter.

Frankly, California could of upped their value by just being postive. they did so wel at Worlds, but they could not hold back from their bashing CF, so they get sucked into this complaining.

Both gyms have the maturity of a ten year old

Agreed.

Date: Wed Apr 30 3:04 PM, 2008

totally agreed

I think nor cal seems to somehow get in the mix too - equally as annoying

all gyms have "rivals" if you will - but you don't see them all on here dragging each other through the mud over and over and over and ----------

I agree it gets really old after awhile. As hard as I try not to judge a whole gym by a couple of posters on a anonymous message board, it's a bad reflection on your whole organization. After awhile I see certain gym names and the first thing I think of is too much drama.

if you were in 10th you would have been in finals

you cant claim any placement if you did not make it out of semi finals. Teams that "placed" competed through to the final round period.

no rockiez and alcatraz are both international teams so they didnt make it to finals because of the three team rule

Date: Wed Apr 30 3:44 PM, 2008

no they didnt make it to finals because they didnt place among the top 3 US teams. so they didnt make it to finals and are therefore are not finalist and did not earn a placement
