Here we go again with the push to make cheerleading a sport for college purposes. We've been through both sides before, and the issue of whether this has Title IX implications. All I know is that if the winner is chosen by judges for totally subjective reasons, it's not a sport. If there's any specific scoring criterion that's not subjective, it can be a sport. Football's a sport. Soccer's a sport. Figure skating? Ballroom dancing? Cheerleading? Skills, to be sure, and entertainment, but sport? (New York Times)
