So great to see Dick button on screen again! I miss his colorful commentary!
I know he was on the team for the olys for NBC, and I want to say he was there at nationals last year... I would assume he's working with them again this year... though he was not a part of the Skate America coverage.
wow! yahoo is fast...there are already some photos from men event! and there are adding more and more...

yes, but NBC had no desire to show the dance competition at SA... so that makes sense that she was not there. why pay someone to commentate when you aren't going to show their event ?
that's true, but Tracy Wilson was not at SkateAmerica either and she is in Cleveland this week.
BTW there was a hysterical interview with a little brother of a skater in the audience just now. He had the crowd rolling!
I wonder if it was Melissa Telecky's brother. My feed is horrible so I only heard snippets. I thought i heard "Bowling Green". I know Melissa is from around northwest Ohio, and from the way the kid mentioned Alissa Czisny, I figured it wasnt her relation.
True but I also think another reason is that Tracy wears so many hats these days. I think she called the whole GP season on Canadian tv along with their nationals. I think the only thing she's not covering is Olympics for Canadian tv. She also runs that rink in Ottawa with Brian Orser. She may only have time to work for NBC on a part time basis now. It may work out well for both of them.
