2019 Bloooooooooooooocoats

Thank you Bluecoats!

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

Teddy Roosevelt's "The Man in the Arena"

 

It will be very hard to top this season - the design staff needs to go back to the drawing board and chart a new direction - more demand more achievement -

Guard needs to be equal or better to Vanguard and Devils

Drum Line needs a total overhaul and needs to contribute.

See ya next year.

Bahahaha... Ha..heh.. heh.

Did you not see what they just did? and the margins that they did it in?

Time for the drawing board... but not for reinvention or damage control.

Time to write the next crowd slaying show that everyone else will wish that they had written.

Keep doin' what you're doin' Bloo.

sorry disagree - this year was great - but what pleases the beer and pretzels crowd doesn't win championships --

Bluecoats have got to out Blue Devil the Blue Devils like they did in 16 to win another championship -

Crown or Boston is going to win a championship before Bluecoats will if Bluecoatds doesn't find a way to build a vehicle that doesn't run out of demand/achievement before finals.

That being said, I am very happy for the Bluecoats season and hope they continue to innovate and drive the activity.

Bah haha.. Some more.

Compare the sheets from 2016 to these.

The show scored remarkably high in both demand and achievement... look at the sheets.  Compare the top 2.  Campare with 3-6.  Compare with the defending champs.

This was the very best Bluecoats that there has ever been.  Competition is much more circumstantial than you make it out to be.

Dude, please. Bluecoats are the most innovative corps in dci. They came within a fraction of a tenth of a point to win a gold medal! Keep doing what you are doing, BC.

You just said that it wasn't the critic who counted.

Then you proceeded to be that critic.

It's as if you quoted Churchill and then surrendered.

You could not be more blatantly correct, cfirwin3. Win it all or not, it is indeed a silly & deluded person who asserts that Bloo didn't have the demand & achievement this year, not to mention the crowd behind them. Bloo's lane is audience-friendly shows, and they've mastered them in the last five years. Tilt, Kinetic Noise, Downside Up, Jagged Line, Session 44, and, of course, the Bluecoats. All masterpieces with the fans (non-Bloo fans) behind them 100%. 

You keep doing you, Bloo. I've enjoyed immensely the past few years, and this year is among my absolute favorites. No one does audience friendly like Bloo, and they OWNED it this summer!
