Boston's design simply does not hold up with the other 5 from the top 6 last year. They are going to place 6th at finals (at best). My “way too early” clusters would be SCV (gap) BD/Crown/Coats/Cavaliers (gap) Boston (gap) Cadets/BS/Mandarins (gap) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. If SCV starts pulling away from BD it will likely be over. They will likely run the table and repeat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's true then I don't think that it pulls BAC up... I think it pulls Bloo and maybe Crown downward away from the other 3. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiga Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 My dear queenie, you are entitled to your own opinion. I just can't imagine going on dcp and stating with such confidence that there is literally no way any corps could not improve and close in on a couple corps above them. That's what the WOW was about.

cfirwin3 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I think the Boston scoring outside of guard is being a bit generous. That would be my diagnosis. The alternative is that Bloo (and maybe Crown -although they jumped point value tonight) are getting some fairly conservative figures (wouldn't be the first time for Bloo in the early season). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am stating with full 100% confidence that BAC will not challenge Santa Clara Vanguard, Blue Devils, Carolina Crown, Bluecoats, or Cavaliers during finals week. If I am wrong, then I will eat major huge crown and admit I am a dumb moron who doesn't deserve to ever comment on DCI again. And you will be the first person I grovel to for forgiveness on August 11th. If I am right, I won't rub it in to you, but if I am wrong I promise I will find you and bow down to you. You are smarter than I for not making such a bold prediction so early, but after seeing the top 6, the other 5 have out-designed Boston by a mile. 🙂 Edited June 23, 2019 by queenanne_1536 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiga Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I simply wouldn't state anything like that about any corps, but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
