Cappybara Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 2 hours ago, NCWVUFAN said: Winning isn't everything, BD has failed to be the crowd favorite for many years. Last year it was SCV, Bloo in 16, Crown in 15, Bloo again in 14....even with BD having a record score that year. BD designs shows to the scorecard, not to be inovative, entertain, or wow the crowd. What BD does better than anyone is teach those kids how to look and carry themselves on the field, amazing, every year. Hint hint, BD is never going to be the crowd favorite. They win too much. You see it in every sport. The Warriors, Patriots, Yankees, Blackhawks, etc etc are all hated for their success, regardless of how entertaining of a product they put out on the field/court.

I don’t think people hate the Devils, they just like seeing corps get rewarded for being the crowd favorite. It’s human nature to want the underdog to win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) Getting to be in front of that, the last two nights especially, has been......wow. I see arguments and tension have begun as always. I think more than ever the scores are the last thing on my mind. Just sit back, enjoy all the shows, and take it all in while you can because the summer is flying by and it’ll be over before you know it. Glad a lot of people seem to be enjoying the show!

I don’t have to hate a corps or show to love another one. Plus it’s not binary. You can like certain aspects of shows you don’t love, and vice versa.

Hmmm. . .are you sure he didn't say "I come in peace and I have goodwill toward men"? I don't remember the cats quote. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also said "all these cats need is a good tenor man." I pointed out they had 5 of them...he said I mean tenor sax...thus the "former" friend. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
