Subject: My Picks
Author: Looks Matter [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: Wednesday, June 19, 12:23:04pm Based solely on appearance, I would say the top contenders are Christina, Danna, Elissa, both Colombos, Sara and Stephanie...bubble would be Jade, Monique, and Maria. I'm aware that many other factors will be used to select our winners, but these girls are especially attractive and put together. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

My Picks are Jade and Samantha. (NT) -- So beautiful, Wednesday, June 19, 01:22:48pm this is not a beauty pageant, but looks do matter. (NT) -- Intelligence, talent, maturity, committment, role model, articulation and communication skills, plus personality are all important other factors., Wednesday, June 19, 02:18:08pm Not all of your choices measure up. I could be happy with several of your choices, but not all. (NT) -- Sorry I can't be more specific., Wednesday, June 19, 02:21:16pm

The following words or phrases should be banned when describing contestants:
Amazing (everything is amazing nowadays)
Nailed her interview (how do you know that, by the way?)
Total package
Looks like a soccer mom
Looks too old for a teen
Looks too young for a miss
The board needs to (just complete this sentence with whatever negative comment you feel is appropriate)

Subject: Do we have a Miss America this year? I don't think so. Those years are few and far apart.

It depends. I think there are girls who may be more successful at Miss America but would not have what it takes to be an incredible Miss MD throughout the year. I'm curious what Sherry and the MD board is looking for in a contestant this year. (NT) -- ., Wednesday, June 05, 08:45:42am We all would like to know that. I'm thinking they want the best Miss MD for the state and the year. (NT) -- Many could handle that., Friday, June 07, 10:46:47pm I trhink academics are taking a bigger part of the decision, just like the OT program and DW program. (NT) -- Joanna had that part covered. Sam has it this year and some others, I'm sure., Saturday, June 08, 05:07:27am All of last year's top five were scholars. That should tell you something. (NT) -- Just saying., Sunday, June 09, 07:16:16am Re: Do we have a Miss America this year? I don't think so. Those years are few and far apart. -- I hope I am wrong, Thursday, June 13, 05:41:40am It's not often that we have a Virginia Cha, Marina Harrison, Joanna Guy, Camille Lewis, or a Keri Schrader come along. (NT) -- Those years are few and far between., Friday, June 14, 03:56:23am It certainly happened "often" in 1998-2003, when this state program was run properly. (NT) -- ., Wednesday, June 19, 12:19:30am We had a good streak for awhile. Those were golden days. It's a different time now. (NT) -- We still have some outstanding contestants, it's just a different time., Wednesday, June 19, 09:00:48am

No... You ask, you recieve. (NT) -- :-), Tuesday, June 18, 11:20:49pm Definitely not. (NT) -- r, Tuesday, June 18, 11:40:38pm I have avoided every question mentioning her, but I can't hold my younger anymore. She is a cocky, self-righteous, snobby girl. There was also that rumor last year about explicit photos of her circulating UMBC. As an alumna from both this organization and University of MD, I am appalled by her behaviors in this organization (NT) -- Not. Definitely not, Wednesday, June 19, 12:06:49am I'm not sure if it's sad or if I'm just missing something, but this girl didn't make too ten last year. Her talent is not good. Why is she a front runner this year? (NT) -- Why are we ignoring contestants who have been consistently in the top ten or better like Mollerick and Kenny?, Wednesday, June 19, 12:29:12am Many other posters have been saying the same thing for weeks and week. SAM IS NOT MISS MARYLAND MATERIAL. (NT) -- She's disgusting., Wednesday, June 19, 06:38:18am Re: Many other posters have been saying the same thing for weeks and week. SAM IS NOT MISS MARYLAND MATERIAL. -- STOP BEING NASTY, Wednesday, June 19, 07:28:21am STOP BEING NAIVE (NT) -- She will never be miss maryland, Wednesday, June 19, 07:45:26am

Subject: princess/prince program
Author: disappointed [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: Tuesday, June 18, 03:22:40am I was so disappointed yesterday that not only the Miss contestants didn't crown their princess/prince but they weren't able to attend the tea party either! I know the children look forward to that every year and this for some is the only chance they get to interact! and I know for a fact the contestants also look forward to it!!! I've been involved for years and was never disappointed until this year! [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
Replies:
Many of the little ones were very disappointed. Their Miss mentors were also disappointed. The porpose of the "tea" was to give them an opportunity to interact. (NT) -- That should have been the first priority, not an appearance at the Suns game., Tuesday, June 18, 11:56:33am Re: Many of the little ones were very disappointed. Their Miss mentors were also disappointed. The porpose of the "tea" was to give them an opportunity to interact. -- mom of princess, Tuesday, June 18, 06:10:06pm Agree, first priority should have been to the people who are PAYING to support this program. Won't be back next year. (NT) -- Took home a disappointed child., Tuesday, June 18, 05:37:01pm Re: princess/prince program -- Mom of princess (:-(), Tuesday, June 18, 06:05:08pm I suggest that they keep the Pincesses happy, as they could be future contestants. They also need to keep the parents happy, as they spend big bucks on the program fees and also sell lots of tickets to the pageant. (NT) -- Keeping everyone happy!, Tuesday, June 18, 10:32:19pm

Say hello to our next Miss Maryland!! -- she looked incredible, Tuesday, June 18, 05:16:36pm OMG.....please stop...you are irritating. (NT) -- I guess some people can't help their personalities, but just stop., Tuesday, June 18, 08:25:50pm

Subject: Do y'all think Stephanie meadowcroft could be the winner this year
Author: Kathy [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: Monday, June 10, 04:15:19pm [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
Replies:
NO. (NT) -- Not her year, Tuesday, June 11, 03:26:45am YES! She certainly could be, we'll find out in 11 days! (NT) -- Good luck to all the girls!, Wednesday, June 12, 03:24:31am You know I hate it when people say that. Who are we to determine whether or not it is someone's year. Yes we all have our favorites, but sitting back trying to determine who's year it is, is really crazy. And before we mention growth, unless you are that person, you don't know what they are doing behind the scenes to prepare. (NT) -- This goes for all of the girls., Tuesday, June 11, 04:21:20am Here is one thing I am sure of, if it's not Stephanie, it will be one of the other 23 equally beautiful, smart, talented and articulate young ladies. (NT) -- Miss Profound, Tuesday, June 11, 10:58:14am I, for one, am sick and tired of the attacks on Stephanie. She was a wonderful MMOT. She is very talented, smart and pretty. Her SS body is fantastic and her stage presence is undeniable! After living in NYC on her own for a year she has the maturity to be a fabulous Miss Maryland and undoubtedly has the networking abilities to further the Miss MD organization.She may very well be our next Miss MD, or as the previous poster stated, it may be one of the other lovely young women competing. The judges are the only ones who will be able to answer that, and that won�t be until next Saturday. (NT) -- Your comments will have no bearing on the outcome and frankly those of us who know Stephanie can see your comments for what they are, snarky, mean-spirited and jealous., Tuesday, June 11, 12:31:28pm Re: Do y'all think Stephanie meadowcroft could be the winner this year -- Here we go again, Tuesday, June 11, 12:36:34pm Who the hell is Kathy? And why is she always in for Stephanie?? (NT) -- I think she needs to be outed., Wednesday, June 12, 07:21:39am I agree, how can we find out who this is? (NT) -- I'd like to know!, Wednesday, June 12, 09:30:17am Of course. Stephanie could be the winner. (NT) -- And so could a few other strong contestants., Sunday, June 16, 06:07:53am

Yes I believe you can, alot of times the seats are better than if you ordered ahead of time. (NT) -- ., Saturday, June 15, 07:03:18am Yes, yes. Get them on the night. (NT) -- Many available on prelim nights., Saturday, June 15, 10:41:57am

Replies:
Still no dresses? What is the back-up plan? Should the girls pack a cocktail dress? (NT) -- Cutting it down to the wire. Girls arrive next Sunday, Sunday, June 09, 01:54:18am I hope they come soon. Some may need alterations. (NT) -- Such a worry!, Sunday, June 09, 07:17:49am I would hope that if the dresses aren't available until pageant week that a seamstress will be available. (NT) -- Size matters, Wednesday, June 12, 03:34:58am Carlie's year, the girls got their dresses at Miss MD week. There was no seamstress. (NT) -- Bring plenty of safety pins., Wednesday, June 12, 04:02:07am Every year is the same BS. When will this producer get her freaking act together. This has been happening for years! Its almost like she enjoys making the contestants stress and seeing how miserable she can make their entire Miss Maryland experience. (NT) -- EVERY DAMN YEAR this crap happens., Wednesday, June 12, 07:20:02am

GO SAM! -- Lilianne M., Saturday, June 08, 11:30:44am ^Hard worker... You got that right! Sam is the hardest working, most dedicated girl I've seen enter this organization in years! (NT) -- Yeah! GO SAM!, Saturday, June 08, 12:25:40pm I think there have been many hard working contestants come and go over the years. (NT) -- To say that she is the hardest working and most dedicated is a bit of a stretch., Saturday, June 08, 01:07:13pm She's hard working, yeah. But I honestly think she will be top 5 at best! Her talent is just not up to par. Her body is good, but not the best. (NT) -- Anon, Saturday, June 08, 01:28:39pm some major hyping going on for sam and have a feeling its not multiple people either.... (NT) -- LOL, Saturday, June 08, 03:08:48pm Gag me with a spoon.

Some dont have to plaster pictures to prove they are making a difference or working out....

Why do the roomates matter? (NT) -- Curious, Tuesday, June 04, 11:58:30pm It is just an exciting aspect. The girls form bonds, and anticipate late night giggles. Some are future bridesmaids. Just adds to the excitement. (NT) -- Just saying, Wednesday, June 05, 01:58:53am

One question, however, why do some insist on doing a head and shoulder shot when it's a headshot? I don't mind a little shoulder, but for Pete's sake, it's not supposed to be from the waist up!

Are they doing a talent prelim to teens again this year? (NT) -- curious, Friday, May 24, 07:27:47am Contestant 8 is missing from all three groups. Number 8 in Mu is Whitney Columbo, number 8 in Delta is Emily Galligher and number 8 in Sigma is Maria Pifer.

Subject: Just a question: it's very interesting that this board is very inactive but as soon as something was said about a contestant, the whole board blew up. Is it because it was about a few people posting things pretending to be different posters?

A lot of people read/reply but not as many people start topics. Classic group behavior. Everyone waits for someone else to start a topic, or for a topic to really get "hot and heavy" before they add their 2 cents. (NT) -- me, Tuesday, May 21, 08:02:52am Also this place used to be swarming with people who were thrilled to point out what a piss-poor job the Maryland state board was doing for about 8-9 years. Fortunately within the last year or so they've decided to actually start doing their jobs, hence, a decline. (NT) -- Or maybe it's just a group of strong, dedicated volunteers who have stepped up and are making the Board look good?, Tuesday, May 21, 08:04:06am
