1 Fact:
Paraphrase or quote: The debate rages on today as to whether or not cheerleading should be a sport. Defining cheerleading as a sport will help regulate squads and protect them from doing stunts or tumbling that is too dangerous. Regardless, you will never convince a real cheerleader, that she (or he) is not a true athlete!

1 Fact:  The first organized cheer took place in 1880 at a football game.  Johnny Jack Campbell is the person who receives the credit for starting cheerleading which was called "yelling" in the 1890. Men were the primary cheerleaders while the women cheered along on the stands. Women were then later to join the cheerleading team. The audience started to learn the cheer motions and cheered along with them. Many gymnastics moves were added to the cheers like for example a pyramid, the splits, and other tricks. The crowd would try to make their own pyramids as well.

1 Fact: Cheerleaders have strict rules they need to follow to be able to stay on the team. One of them is their social media. They are strict as one of the New Orleans Saints cheerleader got fired for wearing a one-piece outfit and posted a picture of it on social media. She later sued them for discrimination. Her thoughts were that the NFL players don't have that much of strict rules to follow like they do when the games are focused on the players and not the cheerleaders. All NFL cheerleaders have different rules. For example, the Eagle's cheerleaders weren't allowed to have any social media at all for their protection. One of the biggest rules for most  cheerleading squads is having communications with the players. Dresdynn Warnell said that they would go as far as if there were a group of football players walking in a restaurant the cheerleaders would need to leave even if they were there first.
Paraphrase or quote: "We will get fired and they won't," said Schuyler Warnell.
