Even if we had 3 spots for Vancouver I don't think we would have had a medalist there. Assuming no X-Factor, Wagner would have had that last spot. Not sure if she would have topped Nagasu in point totals even if she was clean in both portions.
I agree RD. It seems like a bad dream to think three spots would have changed anything.
We could have sent Rachael, Mirai, Alissa, Ashley, Caroline, Sasha, Emily and Lady GaGa to Vancouver and we still would not have come away with a medal.
Yuna, Mao and Joannie were not going to get beaten by lesser skaters in Vancouver.
Mirai gave it a good shot and Rachael was judged harshly by the judges.
It was a nice streak started by Peggy back in '68........but it ended with Sasha in 2006.
It was nice that Mirai mentioned the streak and said she was sorry not to have kept it going. Then she said she will start a new one in 2014.
