    That is a stupid cheer for a six-year-old to do.

    I got one of those "cheerleading is a sport" advocacy e-mails from a parent just today.

    I forwarded it to the community editor.

    I hope that I got out of that video quickly enough before an alarm went off in a sex crimes unit somewhere.

    That about sums it up. As the father of a 7-year-old girl, that video makes me sick.

    That video is the father of a 7-year-old girl?

    Anyhoo, Pete Townshend approves.
