It just won't fucking stop
Originally in 246Great
SpoilerRD reveals from the beginning to the cheerleading team that she doesn't like Cheerleading or wants to be coach, and wants to coach the main team instead. Instead of RD half assing her job or skirting responsibility, most of the episode would have been spent on the cheerleaders trying to get her to like it and reminding her that they're as much as part of the buckball team as the sports team. At one point RD decides to train them like the main buckball team. They eventually challenge the Buckball team and get their butts whooped. Instead of shitting on the cheerleading team, she decides she's just not cut for the job and steps down, letting Snips handle it even though he's not good at it. Even with the practice full of repeated botched moves, they're enjoying themselves, and RD becomes impressed with how much athleticism it requires, eventually deciding to coach them again. Then during their first game they actually amaze the crowd and the SoF are inspired enough to win

The moral wasn't "cheerleading is great", I believe it's that "they're just as much as part of the buckball team as they are"
Honestly, even if its original premise episode was doomed to fail reading this and what we got, it just felt like they actively wanted to push the worst possible episode out instead

I mean I don't think that's a moral as it can't be applied things outside of buckball. Also I don't think RD needed to learn that, like it doesn't develop her character other than yea cheerleading is a part of the buckball team.
Also it doesn't seem like Dash was failing on this "moral" beforehand. Need something that will develop her character as opposed to just, "sleeping on a silk pillow is better than cotton."
The final episode, though down executed horribly and also destroys RD's character and her continuity, actually has a moral that can be applied to a number of things.
