What have you done for DC in the last few decades? Made a donation, volunteered, bought a ticket, sponsored a member or just sit on a rock with your longie in front of the stadium in Scranton. 

Pure Gold.

Hopkins - the man who took down DCI?  This is bad. Real bad. For the entire activity. As in, defining moment big. Teetering on the brink big. Wow.

YES he was overpaid 

what kind of question is that?

he drove off talent, allegedly attacked and harassed members, minors and staff and he was a terrible administrator, plus the narcissistic qualities - geez. Hoptalk aka bloviating 

Without Zingali and a few others with actual talent early on... no one would even know his name imo 

 

you used to defend him on that stuff

It feels like that now, yes.  

I do believe it will be very difficult... but there is too much history, too much passion wrapped up into this activity for a handful (implied from this thread) of bad actors to bring down drum corps.  I cite the last post by YEA as evidence for this.  I also cite my own high school that I teach at... our basketball team was on ESPN, the situation was so bad.  And yet, here we are, two years later, playing basketball again and supporting the team with just as much, if not more energy and determination.  

The Cadets will survive; they might even thrive this year.

And if all of DCI has to clean house of all those bad actors to do the same, I'm sure they will.

I think "early sunday edition" is different from the usual Sunday edition because the Inquirer doesn't exactly look like this...? I'm confused. This doesn't look like the newspaper I read.
