Do you think their goal all along was just to make an Olympics or Worlds for the first time? That is what I am thinking now that they retire so quickly. If that was their sole goal, then good for them. They can retire happier with their careers now.

Well I say KUDOS to him!! If he still can do it why not??

I wouldn't doubt that getting to go to the olys and worlds was one of the reasons they aren't staying in. This was their career highlight season and I'm sure they want to go out on that note instead of a downer note...

Aaron's been plugging forever and a day with partners that could never make people's expectations happen. It was always heartbreaking... too bad he found Marcy so long into his career... they could have done great things in the coming seasons...
