Monique July 2, 2019 Share July 2, 2019 (edited) I thought SG was always 17? Last year was: Kash, Lacey, Maddie, Gina, Amy, Kelli, Tasha, Lexie, Daphne, Heather, Hannah, Tess, Jalyn, Bridget, Khalyn, Amber, and Lauren. Edited July 2, 2019 by Monique Link to comment
cherryblossom July 2, 2019 Share July 2, 2019 Just a thought about revealing the team. They should bring in someone like they did last year or have Kelli do her usual we have goal, things to do etc. Then say ok now let’s practice. Line them up to come down the field. Once everyone is coming down the field, then have the message scroll on the screens around the field. What do you think Shelly B? 4 Link to comment

All good but not great to me! Doesn't help that they were sandwiched in between two really strong rookie classes (2016 + 2018) Why is there no 'Burnnnn' button?! Good but not great is how I would describe the 2016 rookie group as well honestly (it’s possible that I’m forgetting a few girls though). I thought the 2015 class was very strong, as were the 2014 and 2012 ones (and season 3 - don’t remember the calendar year). The other groups all kind of blend for me. Link to comment
kalibean July 2, 2019 Share July 2, 2019 Good call on blonde Hannah - she was show group and then cut the next season. Kaitlin L too. Tho they both had reason to be cut at the time. I was racking my brain about anyone in Jalyn’s situation tho. Cut from SG yet still on the squad. It’s always interesting to me who doesn’t want show group too. Lots of life happening out there, and I like seeing how these gals balance it all. 2 Link to comment

If Kelli said this at a cocktail party then of course this would not apply. Remember that whoever is leaking this information is making the organization look bad and that is a cancer that needs to be stopped. It doesn't matter what the subject matter is. Leaks need to be plugged. I get what you're saying about workplace conversations but I disagree with your statement that the person sharing the information is what makes them look bad. The poor decision making and the thinking/favoritism/nepotism behind that decision making is what makes them look bad. Simply because the information got out early doesn't change what their decisions are and the factors that went into their decision making. Whether the info about VK is revealed in early July or mid-late August when pre-season activities start doesn't change a thing. The only thing making TPTB look bad is TPTB.

Whether the info about VK is revealed in early July or mid-late August when pre-season activities start doesn't change a thing. The only thing making TPTB look bad is TPTB. I agree with this. If DCC was as well run and world class as they claimed to be, there wouldn't be the juicy information out there to make them look bad. Poor decision making, poor management skills, nepotism...etc; those are all things that make the DCC look bad. Insider or no insider, the truth always comes out---that's life, especially in the digital age, and they will have to either work to become a better brand or deal with the fall out. Someone last year, and I am failing at who, pointed out that our uproar about Vikkie didn't matter because we represented such a small portion of watchers/fans. And I disagreed with that person because we, the views, the watchers, the fans, have shaped and now continue to shape what info is and isn't put out. They are worried about our little slice of nothingness in the big ole' wide web because if you want DCC drama, gossip, insider info...a few google click words and we're at the top of the search engine. Our information has influenced published rag mag articles. So, if the powers that be want a face lift, it's on them to do the heavy lifting. Until then---which will never happen---they can continue to deal with a tarnished looking brand. Their choices, their consequences. Edited July 2, 2019 by Loves2Dance 29 Link to comment

I had a source, who I consider to be reliable, who did confirm this for me last year. I'm not sure if it ever officially hit the boards or not. 2 3 Link to comment

No amount of great dancing for SG audition this season will compensate for bad behavior last season. People DO grow though. Especially as teens. I do know plenty of teens that one year are insufferable and then do have a wake-up call {in this case not being portrayed in the best light on national TV and having a LOT of people, warranted or not, say some pretty harsh things online} and do change and evolve. She IS a better dancer, from the little videos that were shown she had a strong audition for SG. Maybe not only has her dancing evolved but everyone involved has seen maturity and growth and a change for the better....just saying. I'd also hate for someone to NOT get an opportunity that they have earned just because it could be misconstrued as favoritism. I have been there and that sucks too. 6 Link to comment
