Song Girls Pforum

How's recruiting going with the Song Girls? Any silent commits, and is SC trying to steal any Oregon recruits?

Uh, Scott, you actually did not forget the Song Girl Pforum. Here it is:

Here are the questions you have yet to answer:

Now that her father is no longer on the Oregon staff, do you know whether Amanda Pflugrad will try out for the next cheerleading squad? This is where your connections with the Oregon cheer coach come in handy. The people must know whether it is in their best interests to make the trip up to Eugene next season.

When the USC Song Girls of this decade have had any scandals in the recent past, have you noticed they each always have TWO completely different and unrelated scandals. Consider:

1) A Song Girl is caught cheering for UCLA on national television AND then she exposes her buttocks on national television a month later.
2) A former Song Girl has pictures of herself with a beer bong in the shape of male genitalia AND also private pictures of her engaging in lesbian activities with multiple women become public.
3) Song Girl Natalie Nelson is caught on camera cheering for Texas AND additional pictures are later made public showing her in Texas attire.
4) Following on from #3 above, Natalie Nelson was involved with TWO football players AND an inappropriate picture of her riding a mechanical bull on her 21st birthday become an internet sensation.
5) Pictures showing a Song Girl with an all-torso tattoo become public with a T-shirt cover-up at Swim With Mike AND it also turns out this first year Song Girl had already graduated from USC.
6) Private pictures of a Song Girl with huge fake breasts (I suppose these could as the TWO!) make the rounds of the internet AND also pictures of this Song Girl engaging in underage drinking in Las Vegas.

So each time a Song Girl had had a scandal, she has had two completely different scandals. It is a bizarre trend and has been the case each time without exception. So the next time there is another Song Girl internet scandal, that girl will have two separate issues to contend with at the same time. Do you see this inevitable trend?

Celeste Fremon, the writer of the ultimate investigative journalism article on the Song Girls, now has a blog called Witness LA which covers injustice in Los Angeles. Have you thought about joining forces with Ms Fremon to uncover the ultimate injustice in modern-day Los Angeles - why Keli Snyder was cut from the Song Girls?

Busted Coverage recently did a piece on the 2009 Song Girls and came up with several statements including "At least 3-4 of these girls are not up to usual Song Girl standards." So if Busted Coverage, the site that gushes about everything to do with the Song Girls, thinks there are problems with the Song Girls, surely the problem is real and not imaginary, right?

Are you able to confirm all the song girls on the new squad are actually enrolled students at USC and there are no girls who have already graduated from the university and are violating the squad's policies like several other cases in the past two or three years?

Are any of the new song girls members of USC sororities?

You previously mentioned that Petros has had previous unfriendly run-ins with the Song Girl coaches. What was the nature of this run-in? The coaches seem like bullies who don't want anyone to question the Song Girl program even though it is funded by the university. As a result, we get aesthetically-challenged squads year after year. The coaches seemed to have previously been effective squashing down criticism, but the readers here seem to have really struck a nerve with them.

This week, coffee conglomerate Starbucks announced 6,700 job cuts and the closure of 300 stores.

Pictures of the legendary Amanda "The Pflu" Pflugrad have come to light showing her support of Starbucks.

Is the strategy of Starbucks now to show The Pflu in their advertisement campaigns, thus reversing their financial fortunes and taking them to new heights? Will the Pfrappuccino be the drink of the future?

I was at the basketball game against Stanford and noticed the song girls barely perform at the games anymore. In the past, the song girls and the Trojan Dance Force would alternate during timeouts but now they each do only one routine each half while there is nothing going on the court during most timeouts. So why do the song girls no longer perform many routines or stay behind the baskets during timeouts while there is an empty court? If they are not going to perform, what's the point of even having them at basketball games?

With the new state of the art George Lucas Building fully operational (a la the Death Star), do you think the advisors of the Song Girls will now have access to better PhotoShop artists and technology when they decide to airbrush a member of the 2009 squad out of the team picture?

After seeing the latest Picture Break featuring the incomparable Ms Keli Snyder, should Steve Sample get involved in the investigation into why this beautiful young lady was cut from the song girls? She is, without doubt, the most beautiful song girl we've had this decade and it is not even close. She could even have been a Glory Days-era song girl, so we should take this thing right to the top!

Was Keli simply considered too beautiful to be a USC Song Girl for this sorry decade?
