tesmusic Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I'm going for my top 15, September 2016 edition. 1. Boston Crusaders-Has to be since you know, well...you know. 2. SCV-They're playing Fiddler and it's their anniversary. 3. Troopers-20 on brass staff, how could it not happen. 4. Cavaliers-It will be a conspiracy if they're not in 4th 5. Oregon Crusaders-Just watch your back if you don't put them there 6. Phantom Regiment-They promised us something 7. Academy-They're on the rise, there's no way it can't happen. 8. Crossmen-It's going to be a continuum, and they're going to take a step back in visual design, so you know...carrying on. 9. Madison Scouts-They're going COED, it'll be a surge. 10. Colts-They've been so close for so long. 11. Spirit-They got Sal Salas back, so all is right with them 12. BDB-It was supposed to happen since 2014. Just missing out: 13. Blue Devils-Scojo is selling his house, so he's leaving, so they're out. 14. Carolina Crown-Boston wins, Crown drops out for reasons that are obvious 15. Cadets-George Hopkins is the devil, so he chased everyone out, and they can't rebuild that quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I see the Crossmen moving up 2 spots. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tesmusic Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Wow, this year's champ doesn't even make your top 15! They're preparing for a career in soundtrack samples for movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tesmusic Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 A black hole opened up at the bottom of the Bluecoats slides and the entire corps was lost. No I just wrote about it. They'll be spending all their time at Skywalker Ranch recording samples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20XXMM Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I predict Cadets2 and BDB will battle it out for 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tesmusic Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I predict Cadets2 and BDB will battle it out for 1st. It's plausible. I mean, since GH hates the Cadets, and is way more interested in Cadets2 according to the Cadets 2017 thread, this could easily be the case. Maybe there will be a continuation of the 2011 Cadets show, in which Cadets2 do a show called Angels, and The Cadets will present Demons. He'll pay off the show sponsors to put them on back to back, because you know, he hires everyone, which is why Cadets2 won DCA, and not based on their merit of performance. Cadets2 will present a show playing all music of Michael W. Smith, and Cadets will play a show called BrownNote: What can Brown Do for you?-which will be performed entirely by a synth playing the brown note. The brass of course won't play because those that didn't go to Boston will not be good enough since Gino is not there. There will be no drill to march because Sacktig is gone, and they will be in their new brown uniforms. It could happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1956OPR Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Maybe this has been covered before, but with the explanations that there is little upward movement year to year with the exception of Crossmen, as pointed out previously: What is the most precipitous drop in placement for a corps one year to the next within or out of the top 12? Madison this past year or Phantom a few years ago? Another corps entirely? And I don't mean a corps folding. I mean competing one year and the following year or more. Within the DCI era, aside from the Phantom decline of 8 spots from "08 to "09 and Madison's decline of 5 spots from "15 to "16, I believe the Kilts' decline of 21 spots from "75 to "76 and the Troopers' decline of 7 spots (twice) from "74 to "75 and "76 to "77 should be noted.

They were men ahead of their time, forcasting the Bluecoats slides. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
