Bluecoats have taken captions from cavaliers, phantom, madison, blue devils, and cadets. Why is it such a far guess that they could hit 3rd or 4th tonight?

I would love nothing more then to see Phantom, madison and/or bluecoats shake up the top three tonight. I think one of them could fall tonight and i'm thinking Blue Devils.

Why don't we just leave both corps alone and let them work out their shows? let the judges sort it out.

What good does it do to screw over the corps performance order in tenn.? Everyone there is going to be amped anyway. They will just inflate the first score and hold everyone back from there. I have said it before, amps are not changing drum corps. they are just making the things we have been doing for years more audible.

will the corps schelduled for hershey add other shows that day?

i wouldn't be surprised if blue knights and glassmen both take santa clara and my gut is telling me the last spot is going to colts.

this is not a santa clara bashing thread. it is a poll. No one is saying they are not going to be a finalist. its just if they will hit 90 or not. Yes it is a down year for them but that dosen't mean it is not an honor to be in the elite top 12. Will they break 90? probabely not. but that dosen't mean the corps is not great. They unfortunately are having their off year when other competitors are having exceptional seasons. But sometimes you have years like that. It dosen't mean it's a permenant classification of the corps. Next year is another year. For those out there who think their placement is going to be shamful, remember there are other corps out there who would give their right arm to be a finalist.

1. Cadets 2. Cavaliers 3. Madison 4. Blue Devils 5. Bluecoats 6. Phantom Regiment 7. Carolina Crown 8. Boston Crusaders 9. Blue Knights 10. Santa Clara Vanguard 11. Glassmen 12. Colts

sure i'll play 1. blue devils 2. cadets 3. cavaliers 4. madison 5. bluecoats 6. phantom 7. crown 8. santa clara 9. glassmen 10. boston 11. colts 12. crossmen 13. blue knights 14. seattle 15. manderins 16. southwind 17. crest for what it's worth, I change my mind a dozen times throughout the season.

three things recently come to mind. The horendous fall by the cadets tuba player in I believe 2000 2004 crossmen rifle drop that left the young lady stuck in the horns drill 2005 Phantom regiment, the rifle drop that was so impossible to recover that she had to run through the wrong hole in the drill.

I know they will be but if more inclimate weather happens or things don't go well that first show is all i meant

I hope this turn of bad luck dosen't negitively effect Boston, Crossmen, Magic, Spirit, and Crown. It is so important to get a couple small shows out of the way to work out those little bugs before going to a major show like louisville, the mid-west corps have been out for over a week now.

With the judges not getting this opportunity to veiw these corps tonight, will it make a profound difference in louisville in favor of the cadets and the mid-west corps?
