Nice thought Oreo, but this year was Jeremy's comeback year. He had great programs, but once again did not deliver on the biggest stage. If things continue as they are with all the guys ahead of him, Jeremy will land in 9th place, no better than what Dornbush (a skater with less rep, experience and PCS abilities) did last year. Who knows what place Adam will end up in -- it will not be close to where Ross (a skater with less rep, experience and PCS abilities) landed in last year. The U.S. fed, believe me, will take no prisoners after this. Kind of a stiff jab in the face too that the defending World championship U.S. team of Davis and White performed to their best level and still took a hit (due to politics mainly, IMHO).

Jeremy being interviewed on Universal Sports. I don't care what kind of face these guys place on it or tell themselves, THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Sorry, it is so sad.

No, we'll have 12 medals. We will politick and cheat.

I know Jeremy is a favorite of Meryl Davis. In his interviews, I can see why. Really like his thoughtful approach to his skating. In addition I think he is an absolutely beautiful artist.

Go Dai!!! On fire!

Can't believe I'm not watching Daisuke's program, but I like his SP better. Still, don't fall Dai per usual, don't fall.

Here's hoping he can hang onto bronze. *crossing my fingers*

I wouldn't be surprised if this is Abbott's last competition. I'm actually preparing myself for it. He keeps saying he couldn't have prepared better for it and with the outcome, he has to feel lost and bewildered. "What more could I have done?" and sheer frustration are the vibes I am getting from him.

Wow, he came to win. That was about as perfect as you can hope for.
