C.Holland Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 taken from Tumblr. "The picture of the dinkles shouldn’t have gotten out or have been taken at all. Regardless, were sorry it happened and the people who were involved with it are getting dealt with. It’s not the group mentality or character at all to do such a thing. They teach humility, professionalism, and good sportsmanship here at the cadets and the last thing we want is for one bad instance to speak for the rest of us. This has been the best summer of my life so far just because of the positivity and growth that I’ve gained from this organization and I’d rather that be advertised through any media rather than a screenshot of a snapchat. So sorry again, Blue Devils. You guys have a rad show this year!" Im not sure I'd be happy to be that person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THeShadeOfNight Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Written on the bottom of the dinkles. If that's the case and it took a screenshot to be seen, that member seriously needs to work on their high toes.

packetslave Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 From looking at the pic, someone (allegedly from Cadets) snapchat'ed it, someone else screenshotted it, and a BD member posted it to Tumblr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duhurhurrr Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 They will be goners. It is totally a thing by the way. If you don't believe me (warning, not safe for work): https://38.media.tumblr.com/fbad1e5854e2ba59423852bfdde7dd59/tumblr_n9y4yjDeiO1qgt0klo1_500.jpg Picture this being unfurled on the giant backfield tarp instead of the Capitol building. It represents freedom of expression. Maximum GE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamarag Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 It made it to Reddit early this morning, so it's never going away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rifuarian Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Did anyone else happen to see the picture floating around of a Cadets member's shoes with "f**k you blue devils" written on the bottom and multiple middle fingers in the frame? People give the Blue Devils a lot of heat but dang.... That's not cool and certainly doesn't look good for the organization. Ever been on tour? That's pretty mild IMO, though I don't really ever remember seeing much of that from the Cadets. Hoppy has many, many faults but he runs a tight ship in that regard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadets are pretty respectful group and I tend to think WE are more competitive than the kids are sometimes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, as a Devils alumnus, I found the whole thing pretty interesting. I'm sure the two Devils alums on the brass staff at Cadets dealt with the issue appropriately, like the "teaching moment" it is. I would have made the offending member wear a Blue Devils shirt all day today in rehearsal :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
