I feel this is going to be weakest team the US will send to an Olympics. Aside from D/W, I don't think the US has any chances of winning medals. It seems as though the most exciting part of Nationals next week is seeing who's going to participate in the Olympics. Perhaps producing mediocre results might be the wake up call for the USFSA to address reform. This includes restructuring the way the national team trains and how skaters are selected to compete at major international events. Perhaps they can take note back in 1999 when the US Women's Gymnastics team finished dead last in the team final at worlds and one year later completely transformed its program. What do you think? You think this the wake up call the US needs? I think it's time. The US has so many talented juniors and novice skaters and I would hate if they fall through the cracks because the system is not doing its best to cultivate competitive skaters.
