I will greet Kwan the Queen with applause.
May I add my applause to yours?
I wish that Korea weren't so far away from Florida!
I envy anyone fortunate enough to be there!

and nobody has seen her practicing for this? Correct?WHOA. This is huge. WE have not seen her on the ice since that cheesefest in December of 2005. I wonder if this means she is considering a pro career? I can't wait to see her. So many questions to be answered.

yes they have the other one, Hundai show, with sasha and where plushy will probably show some of his new program on first days of august
Nebelhorn won't (sorry). Anyway, I don't feel she should take a Senior B assignment from someone who competed at '09 Nationals. IF Kwan decides to qualify for '10 Nationals, I don't see it being a big deal for her to debut her competition programs at Regionals? All she would have to do is place in the top 4 there. Then the 5th place finisher at that Regionals would automatically advance to Sectionals IF Kwan competes at Skate America (which would give her the bye through Sectionals to Nationals).... (b) Ask the USFSA to send her to the Nebelhorn Trophy. This will get her out of regionals.
If Michelle shows up at Skate America and Sasha, Michelle and Yu-Na are there...I might have a friggin heart attack at the arena!!!
Plushenko Yagudin Na Young Kim 2008In fact the whole country has come to a standstill and people are so excited they can hardly concentrate.
Scenario number 1. Michelle is really coming back.
The USFSA left a spot at Skate America open for her. They asked her to decide by the end of July what she wanted to do. Michelle does not pay to much attention to such deadlines. She will say something when she has something to say. Her plan:
(a) Skate in Korea in August. This is risk free, gives her a chance to shake some of the rust off, get back into being in front of a crowd. If all goes well…
(b) Ask the USFSA to send her to the Nebelhorn Trophy. This will get her out of regionals. She wins Nebelhorn against second-tier competition.
(c) Skate America (this gets her out of Sectionals). She outpoints Rachael, Sasha withdraws. Michelle gets some home-court judging against Yu-na and wins!
(d) On to U.S. Nationals, aka the Michelle Kwan Road Show. People forget there is anyone named Caroline, Ashley or Mirai.
(e) The Pacific Coast Express, LA to Vancouver! All Aboard!!
Senario number two. Nah, Michelle is just teasing us after all.
She skates in Korea, cementing her friendly relations with Kim. (She already started the ball rolling by heaping praise on Yu-na as a commentator at Worlds.) Then she sets up her own production company, “Michelle Kwan Presents.” After Kim wins the Olympics, Michelle signs her to a ten-year contract to tour in the U.S. :yes:
Either way, figure skating comes roaring back in popularuty in America.
Bottom Line No one but no one has any info on Kwan's practices, runthrus, and further plans for Pacific Sectionals. It's a wait and see It's very Kwan-like.
