VKMello84 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) Please appreciate the Corps!I think you miss the point that tonight Hopkins impeded the audience's ability to appreciate the corps. People sometimes make short sighted decisions. For that, they often pay a price. Edited August 10, 2007 by VKMello84 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PR_ducky Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 It's one vicious circle. Please appreciate the Corps! It shows courage to admit your mistakes. Could DCI made a mistake by giving an penalty??? they could have made a mistake by giving the penalty, but they didn't. made a mistake by removing it. I have seen this mess before when the removal of the penalty had MUCH more impact on things. Hopkins should have sucked it up and taken the penalty.

gimpy Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 so who sees a forcast of boo's tomarrow when the already upset dci people find out about this.. Well, everyone that was at Quarters will most likely be at Semis and Finals, so I imagine DCI will have to do some editing for the 07 DVD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekneek Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Not a big deal to admit your mistake. It is a big deal to go back and alter the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrold99 Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I am beginning to think there is no hope. I love drum corps, but DCI as it stands right now seems irreparably damaged. Not if the crowd won't let them! It's a;; about the crowd so: Don't BOOOO PLEASE!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenTrumpetier Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Ive never seen such a revulting decision by acheson in my 5 years of dci.. this makes me sick.. the penalty should stay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanOwenSullivan Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Not even close to the same situation. I have just become disheartened with the activity tonight after enjoying the competitive aspect for over 20 years. I will tell you one thing the Cadets will not see any more of my money at their souvie stand and they are one of my favorites corps! Punish the corps memebers for Mr. Hopkins and/or DCI's decision. Nice. <**> If that's your only response, I question your previous loyalty. Cheers, Sean w/Stp: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveKathyG Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Yeah but the difference is GH has been in "office" for 25 years and his corps has won 9 DCI world championships. So he knows what he is doing. A very naive statement. Winning championships does not make one a good director. Very telling you think it does.
