Cheerleader who fell on her head: Great Hero?

Did you all see that Cheerleader who crashed, then was strapped to a gurney, but still performed her routine as the were pulling her off the court?

Well, it's a cute story, and she's been making the talk-show rounds today, and I won't begrudge her that bit of fame; like i said: cute story.

What I LOVE, though, is this article, where she's compared to Abraham Lincoln, among others.

No, really she won't. I think it's great and all, and I'm glad she's alright. It is certainly a terrible thing what happened. But this is a bit much.

Breaking news. Turns out the girl has been taking cattle steroids.

Change "great hero" to "america's greatest villain"

Ahh, warms my heart. God bless the little cheerleaders. And their little cattle steroids.

only in america folks

what this tells me is that she wouldn't let a little sore jaw keep her from finishing you off.

That's cute. But come on... Lincoln? The Tiananmen square guy? Are people really that desparate for positive stories to hang on to?

Poor girl, but I hope this causes Cheerleading to be less popular among kids. It's too damn dangerous.

The only way a destroyed cheerleader doing her routine from a gurney could be more distracting is if her skeleton jumped out of her skin and scored a game winning slam dunk.

Too dangerous? More like inspiring! A cheer is not just a cheer, folks. A cheer is a statement for DEMOCRACY! Every human pyramid is a representation of how we must all work together to fight for human rights, and every topple is just a visceral display of how far we have yet to go.

Now, if you don't mind, I'm off to order CHEER! instructional videos from Amazon.

Which I would pay a hell of a lot of money to watch.

dear god.
*scribbles unnecessary_z's ideas down on a pad of legal paper*

Life is dangerous. You could get killed.....WALKIN YOUR DOGGIE! Hooo AH!

now, you didn't include any or or or or

So I am going to forever think of _DictionaryGirl_ as a bubbly, stunned, empty-headed "like-oh-my-God" type



oh yeah........

*flips hair* Like, OMIGAWWWWD!

HOTT ................?

I totally read that article with a tone of sarcasm. Then I realized it probably wasn't meant to be sarcastic. And that makes me a sad American.

Yeah, let's all go and do back flips! Oooh ow not with my back.

The greatest living American hero was once a cheerleader.

Maybe she's destined to follow in His foot steps.

I thought that this girl was ridiculous. She fell on her head and kept doing the cheers while being wheeled out on a stretcher. That's just dumb, she could have injured herself even more. On that note, it is slightly inspiring in a time where people need inspiration. Seriously though, what a fucking idiot.

You know on second thought, Tim Finnigan fell from a ladder and broke his skull, too.

wow.

"I can't wait for Kristi's heroics to be reenacted on the big screen, or at least on the small screen. If dubious personalities like the Runaway Bride receive so much publicity, a genuine heroine like Kristi certainly deserves her 15 minutes of fame."

i was ready to say "surely this was written w/tongue firmly in cheek," before i clicked the link, but...it's not, and that's just f$#@ing silly.

That was freaky, college cheerleaders are scary enough of it is, now we have one possessed Linda Blair style. Doing cheers in semi-consciousness.
