Amazing!

BTW, it's been decades since I was in school. When did cheerleading become a high-risk gymnastic event?

"Sports" ping.

Joe Theisman only had a broken leg and he didn't throw any passes from his stretcher.


You gotta catch the video. I have to admit, I laughed.

A google image search on "Kristi Yamaoka" returns this pic:

She has neck injuries and they are letting her move around...not smart.

I saw that live. I thought at the time it was fmonumentally oolish for her to move around so much, since many injuries are made worse after the fact by moving the injured areas too much. Why does she think they use a neck brace in the first place?

She's lucky she didn't hurt herself worse.

Bless her heart. I hope she's going to be OK. My niece was the head cheerleader at CSU and she was up on top of a pyramid when they dropped her to the floor. She broke her pelvic bone and her tail bone. She had to have surgery.

After that, she changed her major, went into sports medicine, and became an occupational therapist.

"The Salukis beat Bradley 59-46 in the Missouri Valley Conference tournament final, earning their fifth-straight berth in the NCAA tournament."

The SALUKIS? Is this for real? What's next, the Bichon Frises?
