2015 Predictions


Recommended Posts

Spring is right around the corner...let's have some fun:

1. Blue Devils

2. Cadets

3. Bluecoats

4. Carolina Crown

5. Santa Clara Vanguard

6. Cavaliers

7. Blue Stars/Blue Knights

8. Blue Stars/Blue Knights

9. Phantom Regiment

10. Madison Scouts/Boston Crusaders

11. Madison Scouts/Boston Crusaders

12. The Troopers

13. The Crossmen

14. Spirit of Atlanta

15. The Colts

16. Oregon Crusaders

17. Blue Devils B

18. The Academy

19. Santa Clara Vanguard Cadets

20. The Mandarins

21. Jersey Surf

22. Advancing Open Class Corps

23. Advancing Open Class Corps

24. The Seattle Cascades

25. Pioneer

My placements were just based on a Top 25...with the growth of open class, in recent years, there could be some more placement adjustments with the lower placing world class corps.

I really like the way you think......about what I'm thinking honestly.

Seattle Cascades are one I'm really keeping my eye one in the coming years. It seems like they really revamped the organization last year and are continuing to build on that. Last years show was absolutely fantastic to me, perfection for their ensemble's strong and weak points, one of the more intelligently designed shows for the specific ensemble last year in my opinion. Was really bummed out they got knocked out of semis. Camp pictures form this year seem to show a larger hornline. Drums were great last year, and I thought the guard was pretty spectacular compared to what they presented in 2013. The show theme this year seems once again something easy to grasp, and one they can do a lot with. Besides the actual corps, they seem a lot more active as an organization. I dunno, I just get a really good vibe from what they're doing. If they can improve on last year, I could see them competing with the Mandarins and Jersey Surf, if not this season than 2016 perhaps. I'm excited to see where they go.

And if I were in Vegas, my predictions would look like this:

...

9. Blue Devils

10. Blue Devils

11. Blue Devils B

12. Blue Devils C

What a joke. Every year, a whole group of people decide to put the Blue Devils in 7th or 8th place and it just makes me laugh. As for the Blue Devils finishing in the top 4, that's a pipe dream. In order for the Blue Devils to do that, either the Blue Devils or the Blue Devils would have to drop out, and I just don't see that happening. We all know that at the end of the year, it's going to come down to a battle between the Blue Devils and the Blue Devils. Maybe, just maybe, the Blue Devils could sneak in there and steal a big win, but we all know how much the judges hate popping numbers for the Blue Devils. Especially when they still have to make room for the Blue Devils and the Blue Devils. I wish the judges would finally stop with the politics and give the Blue Devils their due!

With all of the discussion about that list so far, I'm a little surprised no one has addressed the possibility of the Blue Devils failing to lock up eleventh place, or even twelfth. Was this merely an omission, or do people really think the Blue Devils will fall out of finals? In a way, I suppose such a downturn in the Blue Devils' performance would benefit Blue Devils C, kind of like how Blue Devils B started getting into finals after the Blue Devils folded a few years ago. But still, this speculation is kind of odd. Are the Blue Devils having trouble this year?

All right, seriously, cut out all of the discussion on my now-deleted post. I originally intended it to be a joke on the Blue Devils' dominance over the past 8 seasons and you all have taken it over the top.

Lol I've noticed the people on DCP tend to beat a joke to death with blissful ignorance until it isn't funny anymore.

But, Cap, is there ignorance without Bliss?? Is that what you are trying to say?

Ignorance without bliss is like a marriage without a pre-nup...totally unnecessary on the most part...but you'd never wish to be caught without it.

Blue Devils to repeat... as they're once again full of bliss and vinegar,.. bless their little hearts.
