Jeff Ream Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 first thread I look at is BD hate central. far out. funny...i'm not even bashing BD. just questioning how high the number is with 24 days to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I agree with you that a lot of the hate for BD is completely irrational...but this statement is condescending, IMO. You are essentially saying "If you'd just watch the show, you'd think it was awesome too!"The implication is that people who don't like the show don't like it simply because it's BD. And while that may be true in a few cases, it certainly isn't the case across the board. i kinda agree. i would question any scoring a 92 with 24 days to go.

Jeff Ream Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Who "caught up to them" in 94 ???The last week of the season, they only competed against Cavaliers, beofre that, they destroyed Phantom Regiment (8/5 92.3 vs 88.1) and SCV(8/6 92.5 vs 88.4) then They had 4 shows against Cavaliers, first show on 8/8 the scores were BD - 92.3, Cavs - 91.8 and by the fourth, and last show it was BD - 95.3, Cavs 92.8... Nobody was even a remote threat against Devils in 94, simple as that. G btw, at Preview of Champions on 7/31 Cavaliers were only 1 point behind.......the rest, is (undefeated) history they were spanking people early, and in the days of split regionals on the same day, but yes you said it yourself.....nobody was a remote threat. but for the most part, they were blowing everyone away wil the end, when they ran out of room and others started getting closer simply due to BD running out of numbers to work with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newterak Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 we'll have to agree to disagree. like that's new. I do notice you didn't reply to my post regarding biases and how that affects viewings of a corps Blue Devils do care about scores/winning and its not really a secret... at certain points in time cheese bagels for snack might be the priority though. I try and stay away from all the BD stuff thats been going back and forth but I can at least settle this.

Great job to you and all of those from that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
