Once upon a time there was this:

Our most popular skater(s) going into the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics was a Pairs team. Not Linda F or anybody else.
I think it could happen again but it would require a championship caliber team that had big "it" factor.
I remember watching this Live on TV and believe as far a skating goes it was a pretty big deal in USA.

There has never been another USA team that approached Randy and Tai's popularity and it is hard to understand why.
I am sorry to hear about this latest split and did think Yankowskas and Coughlin were a nice team with potential for more.
