Ghost Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 While you're at it, see how you did this year. Then check to see if the same corps you picked to be down in 12, but ended up higher, you'll once again pick to be down in 13. http://www.drumcorpsplanet.com/forums/index.php/topic/148053-the-official-2012-prediction-thread/page__hl__%2B2012+%2Bpredictions__st__40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincoln Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) SCV will pick up Mike Gaines and break into top 3 Cavaliers will welcome Pete Weber back to the fold You aren't the only one to think about that scenario....

ContraFart Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Only if you out-point them....you want a new champ? Beat BD if they have a show that's winning....simple. I predict that no matter WHAT BD does -- even if they were to a faithful repeat of the 86 show -- they'll get #### on if they continue to win....and not care one way or another (far from it...the hate-fest this year only fueled the corps!) I disagree. there was not this much disdain for the Cavies in the 00's, Its not the fact the BD wins that upsets people, its the shows they are winning with...especially after some of the second place shows that were out there at the same time (Crown '09 and '12) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Cavaliers were winning, you didn't have to TRY to like the show. They were undeniable in a different kind of way.I guess the word i'm looking for is "swagger" Edited August 12, 2012 by tabadabadoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corps8294 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 (edited) Well, until The Blue Devils get shaken up once and a while, here is the current state of the activity: 1. The Blue Devils __________________ 2. The "G6" + 1 (Crown, Cadets, Phantom, SCV, Bluecoats, Cavaliers) __________________ 3. Everyone else __________________ 4. Pioneer yes, I know, the Blue Devils did not win the championship in 2011. Edited August 12, 2012 by shortn'sour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccerguy315 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Mr. Boo, I can't believe you're still awake to even respond to this. Thank you so much for letting us see through your eyes what was happening on the field. It means a lot. This is one of the first finals I've had to miss and it was pretty hard not being there. I found that while watching quarters in the AMC Theater, clapping or giving an enthusiastic "YES" is frowned on. I almost popped having to sit there so quiet. I would really like to meet you next year while in Indy, just to shake your hand and say thanks. you should find a different theater... some have active crowds!

CrunchyTenor Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 you should find a different theater... some have active crowds! True story! There are a couple of theaters closer to us, but we drive all the way across the Vegas Valley to go to one particular one where the audiences are more hip and not afraid to show appreciation.

FaustianMachine Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Interesting trend I've noticed with Crown. 2008 was the last year with the old 2004-2008 uniform. They placed 4th in 2008. 2009, they switched uniforms and placed 2nd. 2010 was the year after a uniform change. 4th. 2011 was the year before a uniform change. 4th, like 2008. 2012 was the year of a uniform change. 2nd. 2013, can we predict 4th?
