I have to agree. This is one of the more negative show threads I have seen.




1993 Colts camp...didn't join. Too worried about finishing college. They made finals! Lesson learned: take the longview. One of my few regrets...

You couldn't see it from the camera work, but early on it was like a presentation of the corps, a "tah-dah" moment.
Kind of like the DM's did back in the old days, front and center on the 50. Tonight the young lady looked like she kind of pointed straight on at the 50, and you couldn't see what she was doing very well. The Ogden UT on-demand show has a better angle.

A great show from the Blue Devils, but it seems to get bogged down towards the end, which reminds a bit of "Winged Victory". The Copland is really really cool, but i think they might be dwelling on it a little too long. I agree that the brass had issues, but they're my front-runner for the championship.
Now the real question . . . will Vanguard top the Cavaliers? Almost certainly not, but I'd love to see it. When was the last time that happened? 1999?
