You obviously do or you wouldn't be going back and forth. I am guilty of that too, so let's just agree to disagree. I do expect a phone call from you tonight and tomorrow night when BD wins 🙂 If I'm wrong, however, I'll forget your number. Just kidding. I'll eat crow. Gladly. Honestly, I'd rather someone else win than BD and that crow will taste so good. So I'll gladly eat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of course they have now all seen the sheets from last night and of course watched the show. So the scores are now going to partially reflect what happened last night.

Vuitton Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Um is there no show thread for today's show? Am I miss it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could even whittle that down to "absolutist language" if I wanted to go softer. Absolutism has no place in competition. Ain't nothin over till the fat lady sings. And no one here is saying BD can't win. They're saying there's a chance for others, as there always should be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they win or not ignoring that is just ignorant. I guarantee you that the BD staff is telling the members right now that "THE DOOR IS OPEN FOR THEM TO TAKE IT FROM YOU," - because that's the truth. There’s also a path for Blue Knights to win the Gold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to come down to the panel. If you would have swapped out Rios, Chumley, Solomon, maybe Miller with judges that preferred Crown, they would have won. There was already disagreement in the GE and Music captions on the SAME SHEETS that can be resolved in either direction, and Guard is going to be a tossup in the end. All I'm saying, is the door is open. It's funny that even a hint of ambiguity is enough to get people riled up, but they're so set on forcing everyone to believe that BD has this in the bag that they just can't handle being objective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the Atlanta Regional Recaps for Rapicki's assessment of Crown percussion. Rapicki judges percussion tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
