Headcases with world medal potential this year: Gracie Gold, Denis Ten, Patrick Chan

...I couldn't think of any more

Love: Patrick Chan, when he skates like at 4CC 2016, divinely. But when he falters and then blames someone or something else, grrrr ....
Like: Gracie Gold, but she loses me when she loses her jumps and then somehow loses herself.
Lose: Denis Ten, Sorry! but I lost patience with him this year; maybe he should have WD because of injuries. But he skated divinely at 2015 4CC.

In a way, my responses indicate how the headcases fling us right and left with our emotions, don't they? :laugh:
