We'll have to get a sheet and see why that is" in a sarcastic/laughing tone showing he thought the judging was bogus. People had reason to be mad at that competition. Caroline has never skated like that before.

Lepinska? Haha, what a convenient mistake. Sure sounds like he had another skater's name on the tip of his tongue. Lepinska, hmm, doesn't that sound familiar? Wasn't there a skater with that last name some time ago?

Haha, why yes, I believe there was

. I see him messing up the name as meaning that that skater's performance at SC was easily forgettable, which it was - Lepisto was not near her best that day, which reinforces my point. Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKOHx2g8mTI , maybe other people see it differently, but I honestly understand the frustration - Mirai is so good, powerful, beautiful and had the jumps that night.

Have you seen recent pictures of her? I wonder if she will wear two dresses that aren't blue this year at nationals....she loves her blue dresses, ever since 07, at least one of her two dresses have been blue.

Well she has been wearing blue all season for her freeskate, and although I would like her to change, I hope she has been working on more important aspects of her skating than her dresses.

Yeah I would have to agree with you on that. I just think she'd look so lovely in pink. She wore it for her sleeping beauty program last year (which I loved) but then at nationals switched back to Ave Maria and the purple dress. I wonder if she'd ever change her LP again for nationals this year....that nutcracker program doesn't seem to be getting her great reactions from the judges.

On the Figure Skaters Online Twitter page, they are reporting that Caroline has an endorsement deal with AT&T, along with Evan and Rachael. There are no details.

I can totally see Caroline in a cellphone commercial. IDK, my bff Mirai?

The photos of her are on facebook...her sister put them up. One said something like, 'Doesn't Caroline's hair look great? Cmon, help me make her feel better about her haircut!' Or something like that. Its still looks about elbow length...

Thanks for the info. That could potentially be big. AT&T is the naming sponsor of U.S. Nationals.

Caroline is so photogenic, I think she would be great in print ads -- especially if she makes the Olympic team!

Yeah I saw those, her hair is still REALLY long. It's pretty though. Caroline's sister YangYang looks pretty tall, about 3-4 inches taller than Caroline, I wonder if this means Caroline will grow even more. If she does, that will be fun for her jumps.
