Rookie ChivaGirl Mekayla
May 19, 2012
I owe Mekayla a huuuuuge apology. A few months ago, I congratulated her teammates Andi and Melissa for being selected to the 2012-13 Laker Girls. But I didn’t mention Miss Mekayla, who also made Lakers. Bad Sasha! Bad! Honestly, I can’t remember if I didn’t know about Mekayla at the time, or if I just had a complete brain fart. In any case, I’m super proud of her, so I’m here to make amends.
Congratulations Mekayla!
Yo go girl!
P-R-O: Doctor, Doctor
Not one Doctor in the house at the P-R-O Convention, but two!
In May Washington Redskins Cheerleader (and long-time friend of the blog) Talmesha earned her Ph.D in Cellular and Molecular Medicine from Johns Hopkins.
Lee Ann of the FC Dallas Girls earned her Ph.D in Immunotoxicology from Clemson.

Video: some gratuitous bragging on the ChivaGirls
Over the weekend, two rookie members of the ChivaGirls were chosen for the 2012-13 Laker Girls. It got me thinking how proud I am of this team, how talented all the girls are, and how great it is that they’ve allowed me to be part of their family. So I thought I’d share a couple of videos of the ChivaGirls in action.
The first routine was choreographed by Tim Stevenson. Not only did Tim choreograph it, but he did the music mix, and personalized it for the team. This routine was created for one specific halftime performance, but it was such a hit, the team has tailored it to their pre-game stage performances. The second routine is also a hip hop number, and believe me when I say this routine doesn’t suck either. (I don’t know who choreographed it, so that’s pretty much all I’m going to say about that.)
I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as I do!
Side note: Congratulations Melissa and Andi! Chivas USA’s loss is the Lakers’ gain.
An Atlanta Heatwave: The 2012 P-R-O Convention – Part Two
After a couple of days of rest due to a case of acute bronchitis…must have been from all that perfume in Atlanta…I am back with the second part of our convention coverage.
The P-R-O Convention is the premier professional cheerleading and dance convention in the nation. Held annually in Atlanta, Georgia, P-R-O features instructors from the NFL, NBA and MLS. Professional cheerleading squads and dance teams came from all over the country to attend the two day event.
The staff of All-Pro3 gave James and I complete access to the convention’s events. In the second part of my article, we continue our coverage of P-R-O with a report on Sunday’s events.

Houston Dynamo Girls Salute The Troops
Reader Scott was at the the Dynamo game on Tuesday. The Dynamo Girls saluted the troops and he took some photos of the girls in their camo uniforms.
Video: ChivaGirls Work It
My peeps the ChivaGirls absolutely killed it during this halftime performance. They were 21 strong, with all 19 members of the team, plus choreographer Tim Stevenson and Laura, their coach. (Laura “thought” she retired after last season, but has found herself stepping in as an alternate more games than not. Homegirl’s still got it.)
So proud of them. Check it out!
