LOL I picked Makarova to be sixth, and I think that might have gotten me more points than four of the other five of my ladies picks...Originally Posted by Macassar88
Skate Canada Predictions
Ladies:
1. Tuktamisheva
2. Suzuki
3. Gold
4. Murakami
5. Osmond
6. Makarova ()
It's too bad that she can't get her jumps together..her programs are really nice this year.
I'd have to see her do a program where Yuna or Irina from 2005 jumps for her to really judge. I can't really enjoy her programs with all those mistakes.
I thought only the top 5 picks actually count and the sixth is an alt- am I wrong? (I hope this doesn't sound rude or mean- I really am just confused)
Yes. That's why I said might have gotten rather than did get.
Oh got itI think everyone is going to be very low scoring on the ladies here...
Right! Just wanted to put the top 6 for those who want to brag!
