Your "Best and Worst" of 2009 Worlds list...

[Wicked]

I thought Patrick Chan falling backstage was hilarious. I loved him laughing at himself.

Hated Evan's fist pumping during his spin. Fist pump all you want after the program is over, not during.

[Medusa]

Hated Evan's fist pumping during his spin. Fist pump all you want after the program is over, not during.

But it's very manly. It's like Usain Bolt cheering before he crosses the finish line.

Newcomer, so I figure I'll post in a safer thread first (if there is such a thing...)

Well, there isn't such a thing in GS. Any thread can be turned into eeeevill russians, lip/flutz, quad/no quad, etc. bashing...

But then again, any pretensiously serious thread can be turned into a laugh-fest (my favourites...)

Like MM said, post often, post long, ...post nice.

Some of my favourites (it's been a while, can't remember everything)

* The discovery of Denis Ten.
* Evan winning (surprised, but happy afterwards)
* Miki's FS
* DomShabs winning and Leonova doing so well (being the eeeeevilll russian supporter that I am..)
* Death stare 2.0 (circumstances weren't the best, but come on, that was funny...)
* Us being so nice to each other during the FD and Ladies FS threads (at least until GoldenSkate crashed)
* Davis/White: they were pretty darn good, weren't they?
* Well, the FD in general was great! I kept wishing that there were 5 podium spots...
* Watching Sarah Meier again, and doing well !
* Yu-Na's SP.

Not good...
* Stephane
* Daisuke (spelling ?)
* DelShoes

Worst

Tomas Verner starting out so good in the LP and then letting it go away from him

I know! Tomas was skating SO WELL that he had a legitimate shot at winning the World title if he had held it all together. Unfortunately, the two doubled triples near the end of his LP were very costly. I would have loved seeing Verner win that Worlds given the outcome and how the other men skated. Verner's programs last season were superior by design over Lysacek's, Chan's, and Joubert's, IMO. It's really too bad for him. I hope he can get his act together!

Best: Domnina and Shabalin's gold

Worst: Khokhlova and Novitski being super under marked they should have placed higher.

Belbin and Agosto making the podium (I cried)!!!!
