CORNEVIE Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I have noticed a steady improvement of the BlueCoats over the last 5 years. Will they improve enough to actually win a Championship the next 2 or 3 years? Whats your opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rut-roh Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Of those who have never won a title, they certainly are in the best position to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentleman Marcher Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I think so. Bloo's attracting good talent, they've got a solid staff in place, and their shows are competing with the big boys and beating some of them. Bloo only has two other corps to take down in competition, BD and Cavs. I think within the next decade, for sure, and hopefully within the next five years, Ohio's going to bring home a ring.

ajlemm Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 They are slated to win it in 2009. In 2001, in the dark halls of DCI headquarters in Addison, IL, it was predetermined via “lottery ball” slotting where Bloooo would finish, increasing its place by one each year. 2003 was a dark setback for the Blooo Crooo when the evil Crusaders found out about the lottery agreement. Look at the last few years: 2006 4th 2005 5th 2004 6th 2003* 7th 2002 7th 2001 8th * Were slated to get 6th, but Boston Crusaders blackmailed judge, throwing the Bloooo conspiracy off one year.

Absolutely hilarious :P ... good job!!! And I hate to sound like a "borg" or whatever ... but to the original poster -- it's "Bluecoats" ... one word (which you had) but no capital "c" in the middle. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueR36 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) Bloo only has two other corps to take down in competition, BD and Cavs. If you're talking all-time, the Bluecoats defeated the Cavaliers several times in the late 1980s ... here's one such example ... Friday June 17, 1988 -- Whitewater WI DCM 1 Madison Scouts 69.400 2 Bluecoats 65.500 3 Cavaliers 64.800 4 Star of Indiana 64.200 5 Phantom Regiment 63.600 and one more ... Saturday June 18, 1988 -- Palatine IL DCM 1 Bluecoats 69.600 2 Cavaliers 67.500 Those were the first two shows of the season, but over the first 10 shows of that season, the Bluecoats beat them one other time and tied them for first another time (that's 3-6-1). With back-to-back wins over the Cadets this past weekend, the ONLY corps the Bluecoats have never beaten is the Blue Devils, whom they finished a mere 0.8 behind at DCI Finals last year in Boston, beating or tying them in several captions.

madscout96 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 My question still is: Who will bring a world championship back to northeast Ohio first? The Bluecoats? Or the field (Cleveland Cavaliers, Indians, or Browns)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantombari1 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 That is very hard to determine. They are progressing nicely, but staff changes can have a huge affect either way! Here's hoping for a consistant future! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefan Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 My question still is: Who will bring a world championship back to northeast Ohio first? The Bluecoats? Or the field (Cleveland Cavaliers, Indians, or Browns)? Not the Browns. Of the topic, does anybody else think the Browns (football), Reds (Baseball), and Blues (Hockey) should all be in the same city? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
