TheMoonlightChef Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Correct me if I am wrong but it seems as though you are insinuating that the Cabs came from behind in '03 and my recollection (which is not very good), had them winning every show that year. The sad fact seems that if you want to win DCA anymore, your corps had better come out ready to rumble from day one. Actually I marched Brigs in '03 and the first show we lost all year (and in the past few years) was the West Haven show the week before DCA Finals to Cabs.They beat us in West Haven, prelims and finals. I marched in Cabs '03. We competed against Brigs 4x that season. The first was August 2nd in East Providence, RI where we lost by .3. Yes, we missed an undefeated season by .3 tenths. But the win in West Haven may have been finals to Caballeros that year. We had finally beat the giant, but not without a lot of hard work on our part and great competition from the Brigadiers. I cried harder in West Haven at our win then when my medal was placed around my neck at Finals. Both glorious wins, but anyone that was part of the 2003 Caballeros knows what I speak of and how it felt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I told you my memory sucks..but Cabs did beat everyone else up to that point, right? Edited July 6, 2008 by VOReason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrishDish1002 Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 The first time we saw them that year was Providence (early Aug.) and we beat them. The next time (West Haven) we weren't so fortunate! So it is possible that they beat everyone down in the Tri-State area until August. See, I told you my memory sucks..but Cabs did beat everyone else up to that point, right?

CallipygianKing Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 When does Cincy get their first score? They've been playing as exhibition at a few DCI shows. Their next performances are at the end of this month... Maybe they'll get an announced score then? If not, I'm not seeing them anywhere except for Rochester. Anyone seen them? Are we looking at a Class A Dark Horse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallipygianKing Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 ...i missed an opportunity to see them,at the fairfield,oh. show... Going to Centerville on the 29th or Columbus on the 30th? There's your chance to see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
