Do not feel bad about that. Cheerleaders are overrated. I would rather not have them at all in games. They get in the way. They stand right one the end line. I am bumping into them just to get an angle on the play and many are too dumb to realize they could back up a little bit. They stand in two rows on the end line as if they could not afford to back up when you are running full speed concentrating on the court. Then you have to dodge them during timeouts so you do not get run over when they do flips. Trust me on this one. Be very thankful you do not see them that much. They could take them completely out of the HS game and I would not get upset at all. They only time they are even worth having around is when you have tons of room on the end line and there is not a wall within 20 feet of the court.

Peace
