*If Sasha Cohen does compete I think she can finish either 1st or 2nd. I doubt she would actually show up if she didn't think she could skate well enough to at least make the Vancouver team.

Men:
1.Evan Lysacek
2Johnny Weir
3.Jeremy Abbott

Pairs:
1.McLaughlin/Brubaker
2.Inoue/Baldwin
3.Denny/Barrett

Dance:
1.Davis/White
2.Belbin/Agosto
3.Samuelson/Bates

From what I've seen of the programs I think B&A skating their best could win at least the CD and FD but seeing how the judging has been going all season, 1st and 2nd placements could/should go either way depending on the performances.

I'm so tempted to participate, but I'm tempting the skategods as it is for doing the USFSA Fantasy Skating thing...

My hopefuls are pretty much the same as my realities!

Ladies:
1. Flatt
2. Wagner
3. Czisny

This is what I am hoping for, too, except that I'd rather see Nagasu get 3rd.

Men:
1. Lysacek
2. Abbott :love:
3. Weir

But I wish Abbott would win. I don't really care so much about the others, but I believe these 3 guys belong there.

Pairs:
1.McLaughlin/Brubaker :love:
2.Denney/Barrett
3.Inoue/Baldwin

As long as M/B win, I will be happy. :)

Dance:
1.Belbin/Agosto
2.Davis/White
3.Samuelson/Bates (but right now I would rather watch N/B)

Realities:
1. Evan--he will have to be carried off in an ambulance to not win.

2/3--Johnny, Jeremy in either order.

I wish: Johnny would skate the performance of his life and get more fame for that than his outfits.:chorus:

Dance:
1. Belbin and Agosto
2. Davis and White

I wish: The order were reversed, but I think Belbin and Agosto will be held up.:chorus:

Pairs:
1. Rockne and Keauna
2. John and Rena

I wish: Some pair really, really good with realistic medal hopes would burst onto the scene.

Ladies:
1. Sasha
2. Rachael
3. Alissa
4. Ashley

If Sasha doesn't show, push everyone up a notch.
I wish: Someone with realistic medal chances internationally beats all of these underachievers.

Barring that, I hope Sasha skates clean, Rachael speeds up a little, Alissa skates clean and Ashley stays true to herself and doesn't try to become a cookie cutter skater.
