Cabs Fusion Bucs C2

I agree jkmummer, Whether Cabs win or lose at this point really comes down to the percussion in my opinion. The brass is #1, colorguard is right up there, the visual and effect captions are at the top. If the percussion scores too low that's it. Done Reminds me of the same problems with Crown in 2012 and 2013. It cost them in 2012 and they were gifted a score in 2013. As much as I want Cabs to win I don't want them gifted anything. I wanna see them win it fair and square.

My glasses are many colors. However, I haven't seen all the other corps I am a fan of yet. Doesn't make my opinion of those certain Bucs fans on here any less valid. Maybe they were right afterall. They didn't have a "long" bus ride, they had a longer practice on Sunday, and I can't remember what the other excuses were to losing to someone else in the regular season finally. You know all of those things that didn't matter in the last decade that are now suddenly vitally important and the only reasons why they've lost

They can't open a spread when another corps didn't even compete. That'd be like saying Fusion had beaten the Bucs on all those rehearsal weekends that Bucs didn't compete yet Fusion did.

I'm not expecting anything out of the ordinary.

Or the season is over next weekend when the Cabs get ahead of the Bucs since they're swapping weekends off/on. Your inability for rational thought and common sense is just astounding. I feel sorry for you

Dramatic would be a 5 point bump. This would be in the realm of normal

"DRAMATIC"? Didn't they only go up 2.5 points? Hardly dramatic

No only 3 have a realistic shot at gold. Maybe in fantasy land 6 could. There's no way Fusion will over take Bucs and then Cabs. It's just not going to happen. No one can take away their progress over the years but let's keep it realistic. C2? No. They were 6 or 7 points back. No matter how many Cadets people they force to fill holes can make them overcome the top 3. There just isn't enough time in those 2 weeks. CV? Love them but no that won't happen either.

I know it's not anyone with the corps. I'm sure they know better than to come on here and read the nonsense people prance around as fact

All of these Bucs fans are seriously butt hurt that their team finally lost. You're only really hurting the Bucs image by making excuses. - "Oh it was the long bus rides" which never stopped them from winning before - "They didn't get to practice much on Sunday". All they've done the last month is practice - "Cabs don't move" I'm sure I'm just imagining the sweat and panting members as they trooped the stands because why would they be tired if all the did was stand still. Plus I'm imagining all the drill I watched with choreographed dance moves since Wildwood - "Cabs have an easier visual program" While that may or may not be the case, how is that any different than any other year? The simple fact is the Cabs are beating the Bucs (for now, who knows what the season will bring). It's not like they're wrongly being awarded points they didn't earn. "Win like a Champion, lose like a Champion"

Ummm Cabs don't park and play except the one salsa part that I remember. Unless of course they changed their drill since last weekend when I watched the fan network. They always seem to be moving

Yup went back and forth with them in the earlier show threads. Especially after wildwood and the other June shows

Where are all of Fusion's fans going on and on about how Cabs better watch out for them?

I think a 4 point bump is a bit much but I agree Cabs will top Bucs again Cabs: 86.95 Bucs: 85.80 Fusion: 83.00 Hurcs: 78.40 Sky: 74.00 The others I don't really have a guess for

Nope I couldn't make it. But I'm ordering the fan network so I can watch them all. Hopefully the recordings are good

So disappointed I didn't make this show!!!!! I guess I'll have to subscribe to the fan network and watch them. I did hear Cabs were just absolutely phenominal. I agree with John that the Cabs have a great tuba line again this year. I haven't seen enough of the other corps to make my opinion permanent but after what I saw in Wildwood and with Cabs beating Bucs this weekend I have no doubt it'll be confirmed. Although I'd have to give props to the baritone line for Cabs this year. They may not be the best or whatever, but MAN what an improvement over last year!! I don't think that can be stated enough. The Cabs have always had awesome mello and trumpet lines, but add in the awesome tuba line of last year and again this year, plus the huge improvement in the baritone line....wow such an awesome wall of sound hitting us in the stands. Those new horns they got really help too. Good for the Cabs brass line.

Awesome which means a thorough review.

I think it's just high hopes for their particular favorite corps. Cabs are my favorite among the corps I root for. However them overcoming Bucs this year is an actual possibility, which is why I keep hoping they will plus I just hate seeing the same "team" winning year after year. Imagine another sports team going undefeated for this long.....people lose interest in the games and season. The gap between Bucs and Cabs is only 0.45. I don't see Fusion over taking Cabs at all, even though Fusion is a corps I like. Fusion has a lot of online hype this year, which is a good thing, except when the hype isn't lived up to.

I love Fusion fans enthusiasm for sure. They barely beat Cabs score from a week ago, I don't know why they think they have a chance this week at beating them. I'm sure the Cabs rehearsed this weekend so you can bet they got better. I get excitement for sure but keep it realistic so the members aren't let down when it doesn't happen. Fusion's show isn't on the same level as Cabs or Bucs (the two are basically neck and neck for 1st place). While Fusion has a chance at the Top 4 this year, as of right now Cabs and Bucs are in a fight for the gold, something Fusion is not even close to being considered for

I'm sure they rehearsed every weekend. No way they would take a weekend or two off

I agree. Fusion will not catch Cabs, not this year at least. If it were the 2011 or 2012 Cabs then I'd say it would be possible. Cabs 2014 are on fire and I don't think even Bucs can stop them. This weekend will be huge for everyone. Hopefully I can make it and buy tickets before they're sold out

I don't think Fusion will beat Reading or be that close to Cabs, I think Fusion will start to plateau here so maybe an 82.6. I do think Cabs will top Reading at this show. Cabs 84.60 Reading 83.95 Fusion 82.2

Eh deleted.

I think that's more the former DCA members mentioning it rather than DCI, DCI doesn't seem to care that DCA even exists. I still don't understand why DCI and DCA don't have more of a cooperative agreement than what they have. Both organizations could benefit greatly by working together. In a dream world perhaps.
