soccerguy315 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 funny thing about DCI... sometimes the members know they had a bad show and their score does great things. And other times they know they absolutely nailed it and the score goes the other way. I'm sure the kids will be looking back fondly on this cooler weather in a couple weeks, haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At semifinals this winter the kids came off the floor crying saying how it was so bad and ruined the chances of making finals. Our score went up 2 points and we went into finals in like 6th place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He called home today about a money matter ( or I would have never heard from him! ) and told me from the ballad on he could barely even feel his legs between the cold and the wind. And I very calmly told him this is what he signed up for. To which he replied..."I know...and I wouldn't have it any other way". Kids will take a lot of physical discomfort to do what they really love! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids will take a lot of physical discomfort to do what they really love! My first year at Blinn ( the same year Cam Newton was there and yes I have met him lol) I was apart of a small group in our marching band to travel to Kansas for a junior college national championship. I believe it was in the 30s??? It was a pain for me to play... literally, it hurt after awhile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
