If one person doesn't like the sermon it
*IS* discouraging. It doesn't cause me not to preach, but when someone is
not satisfied and vocalizes it, yes it is
discouraging.
It's irrelevant whether or not the
discouragement results in failure. The fact still remains that the job of
a cheerleader is *ONLY* to encourage the team and the fans.
She...errr...he...has no other function. If they do something contrary to
that function intentionally then they should be removed.
Yes, I'm sure that the negative publicity,
and potential loss of money from donors had a huge impact on the decision to cut
him from the squad. Maybe even an overriding impact on it. It does
not change the point I've made from the beginning that a cheerleader who
intentionally demoralizes the team (which *is* what happened) needs to be
removed.
There are numerous reasons he should have
been removed, including the potential for lost revenue. I like Tim's
reason too, because he's an idiot.
I'm simply saying that his actions
demoralized the team. It may not have demoralized them to the point it
affected their performance, but the result is irrelevant.

Subject: Re: [Sndbox] Here's what Merriam's says about Cheerleader Debate
Actually, the appropriate choice was discourage. And yeah, any team that has it's own cheerleaders rooting for the other side is going to be discouraged by it. I just really don't see how you don't realize that. I mean it's like saying if your own friends and family won't support you who will?
its also like saying if one parishioner doesnt like the sermon the preacher should become discouraged and not preach theres no sense to that.
you follow the team charles you should know that decision was solely based on bad press that could affect booster donations. its all about the money in college football
