hypeman March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 13 minutes ago, bigskygirl said: I think Lacey is a much better over all DCC than Cersten. Being a good dancer is fine and dandy, but the girl needs to have the whole package, and I do not think Cersten has it. I really like Lacey too. Given her seniority/dance abilitiy, would have loved her for point. She is a great DCC. I'm glad we agree that Cersten is the best dancer now. What are the components of "the total package" where Cersten is deficient? 3 Link to comment
bigskygirl March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 *lol* I do not think Cersten is the best dancer. She is talented, but I do not think she is the best one on the squad once Jenna leaves. I do remember someone saying Cersten thinks highly of herself aka kinda of snobby attitude and thinks the world resolves around her. Of course I take rumors with a grain of salt. I guess I just do not see the total package with her. I have my favorites and non favorites just like everyone else does on here. Link to comment

You get a little side eye for not liking it, but not the full business. LOL. However, I do actually agree that Cersten (based on the videos I have seen) is probably the best on the team, now that Jenna will be leaving. Jenna and Cersten (gah her name is so phonetically wrong) are not even top ten IMO. Good riddance to Jenna and Cersten if she ever gets into med school. Or hey, maybe she'll become a nurse! 2 Link to comment

She’s arguably the best DCC of all-time. 7 Link to comment

For me, it is not just the dancing part that makes the complete DCC. I like a girl who I feel I could meet one day and have a nice conversation with. Someone I could laugh with and might be a friend with one day. A girl who is the real deal and does not take herself too seriously. Yesterday I was listening to the podcast, and I thought I could be friends with Christina even if she is not one of the most talented dancers on the team because I could relate to her not being able to swim, and she was laughing and joking around about it. The other girl was sweet and funny about not being able to swim or ride a bike. Two girls I would love to meet and talk with. Link to comment

Katherine1904 March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 6 minutes ago, HowdeeDo said: For clarification I was only discussing “Best dancer” which is far different from the DCC package. Kelly and Judy’s middle name is ‘subjective’. I think she lost the ambassador title after the incident (though it wasn’t really her fault and most people were in her corner about it). She was an excellent DCC though. We can move to the former thread if need be mods. What incident? Link to comment

Jess14 March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 3 minutes ago, HowdeeDo said: For clarification I was only discussing “Best dancer” which is far different from the DCC package. Agreed. Liking someone or thinking they’re the total DCC is totally different than being the best dancer. If the response to “i think [insert dancer] is the best on the team”, is “no she’s not, she’s a brat,” then that’s not really refuting anything about said dancer’s dancing ability. Granted, i think they go hand in hand to an extent. I think it’s impossible to be a total DCC without being one of the top dancers on the team, yet one can be a top dancer without being the total package. For example, I don’t think Maddie really has the look to be the total package, but I’m sure many would put her as one of the top dancers on the team (not me, but i think you can make an argument for her). Top Ten in no particular order from the current team would be IMO: Lacey, Robin, Jenna, Cersten, Kelli, Stephanie, Kashara, Jinelle, Maggie, Amy. I didn’t add any rookies because I didn’t find any of them to be true standouts in the videos that I’ve seen. For the record, i find this group of ten much weaker than the previous year when i would’ve listed Jenna, Erica, Melissa, Holly, Megan C, Amy T, Jenn K, Jessica, Lacey, Cersten as top 10. 7 Link to comment

bigskygirl March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 (edited) I agree with your current list except for Jenna, Cersten and Stephanie. I know Lauren did struggle during TC, but she and Alexis are my two favorite rookies. Like I said Christina may not be the best rookie dancer, but she did win me over yesterday after listening to the podcast. I was hoping Mandy was going to come back. After watching a few videos of Maddie dancing, I do not see her appeal at all. She was off to the point she was going through the motions of trying to dance.

Rethinking this, I would probably swap Gina with Amy. I forgot about Gina, but i do think that she is one of the top 10 dancers. She would be another one who, IMO, is a top dancer on the team but not the total DCC package, for a variety of reasons. 2 Link to comment
hypeman March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 I was under the impression that Kelly and Judy normally put the best two dancers, in their opinion, first and last at solos. Jenna opened last year. Cersten closed, IJS. 6 Link to comment
bigskygirl March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 (edited) I remember Jennifer starting the solo portion one year, and she was on the team for only one year. She also was made an assistant group leader her second year. Edited March 23, 2018 by bigskygirl Link to comment

Jess14 March 23, 2018 Share March 23, 2018 I definitely think Amy will be a group leader. As for the triangle, I would assume it would be Kashara with Lacey and Cersten on each side if all 3 return. That was the formation at the HOF game. If either Lacey or Cersten (or both retire), I could see Amy in the triangle, especially if Robyn also retires. Not a ton of choices at that point. 3 Link to comment
