Tom Brace Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 this would have been their 10 year fold anniversary probably.as to the latter point...not so much. wow....as to the latter point...15th place corps beating the Regiment colorguard and letting Sage go was a good idea? Please enlighten me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmathis Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Looks like they could be close to winning their first Championship by these scores. Maybe in a year or two. As much as I would like it to happen, I just don't see it happening this year. But who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersop Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 89.0 Blue Stars / 89.25 Boston Crusaders / 89.55 Phantom Regiment Another VIRTUAL 3 way tie. NICE!!!!!! But I still think BAC should be at 90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threats Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 That's cool man, I hear u, but fact is if they are it's cause DCI is saving face from seeing the prior year champ dropping even farther.... Flat out whether the score ends up saying it, Boston and probably BStars are better than them this year... I say Phantom in 8th or 9th, no higher no lower!!!Wes P You are pretty amazing to be able to judge all facets of a drum corps show.... Fact of the matter is... Boston and Blue Stars may have a better visual product (well, there is no MAY about it...they flat out do), but last I checked, DCI judges its corps on both visual and musical products. And no matter what you think, PR has been consistently beating Blue Stars and BAC in music. From everything I have seen and heard with my own two ears, I'd have to say it is a deserved position, musically. So now the real question is....is their visual bad enough to make you (and others) overlook the other important components of a drum corps show? Their percussion is great. Their hornline is fabulous. PR has been losing out to BAC in the areas it deserves to lose....visual design and guard. And losing pretty hard, I might say...half a point down in GE Visual, for example. I know that we are a visually-driven medium these days, but you can't just judge one facet of a corps' show, you have to judge them all. No offense, but...it is pretty #### stupid to say that DCI won't "let" them fall lower than 7th. Sheer idiocy. You're saying DCI is going around and telling all the judges (including judges who marched in BAC and Blue Stars, perhaps, or in general judges who have no allegiance to PR) that they need to adjust their individual numbers, or they will sleep with the fishies? Think about the ridiculousness of what you are saying. You conspiracy theory buffs really tick me off. I wonder what school system raised you all to resort to this type of thinking when 30 seconds of some serious analytical thought would show you that a conspiracy like the one you are hinting at is not only impractical, but pretty #### illogical as well. DCI would have a better time marketing the fact that drum corps are so competitive that you can win a title one year and finish as low as 9th the next.

2000Cadet Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Maybe in a year or two. As much as I would like it to happen, I just don't see it happening this year. But who knows? Hmmmm, I don't know. I guess we'll see what happens next week. They must have been on fire tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
