LabMaster Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 And I know Boston didn't change THAT much of their show. That would have to be a production overhaul for that kind of score jump.Or possibly they are starting to perform it better and judges are "getting it"? Maybe a bit inflated but maybe some earlier shows were underscored. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKSuperman Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I seen them in Kentucky and in no way were they underscored. This just isn't their year. The Academy should, and probably will take their finals spot. Much preferred last year's show than this year's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely need to watch behind them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, the competition for that 12th spot in finals just got a little more interesting, again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D41145 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 And how long ago was the Kentucky show? It's been three weeks. I do believe that they were inflated but maybe that show has been polished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadevilina Crown Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Well, it IS Boston's home show... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corps8294 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Sorry for being Captain Killjoy; but reality is going to return in Allentown and Indy. For all those getting ready to drink the hype Kool-Aid from that score; please put the cup down, back away, smile, and savor the evening for what it's worth.

RedandBlack Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) To be fair, Boston doesn't usually get the benefit of a home show bump. Look at East Coast Classic from this year as an example. Even if the numbers are inflated, it's the spreads that are important. Take the spread up to Cavies and down to Mandarins and OC and if the score is legit, they're back in the hunt for 10-12. A-town will certainly prove or disprove this. Hopefully this gives the team a much needed confidence bump going into the last week of the season.

RedandBlack Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Counterpoint: it's hard to get a real number when you're floating between tiers. I don't know. This season is crazy. :) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
