2015 Worlds Men Short Program March 27

[TMC]

US judges sent out mixed signal with the controversial results at US nationals, so they sabotaged their own skaters unfortunately.

:hopelessness:

No apologies from me. I like who I like.

Josh is a much better skater, in my opinion.

But, as you note, he's had inconsistent results lately. When I heard he broke his boot so close to the WC, I was worried.

Jason is so much more reliable as far as steadiness of nerves. I just prefer Josh.

I'm talking about sport commentators. Not people on forums. I like Joshua better too, but he's been either inconsistent or having boot issues. Not exactly someone to put all your eggs in one basket as the best hope right now imo.

What controversial result? There was nothing wrong with it. The only thing that really cheesed me off was Max's Nationals inflation not being in line with everyone else's.

Here is an article http://www.faz.net/aktuell/sport/wintersport/eiskunstlaeufer-peter-liebers-wird-bei-em-sechster-13396024.html (in German/auto translate with google or the likes) about Liebers iin one of Germany's reknown newspapers. It states (time: Europeans) - last paragraph, that the psychologist prepared a video with Peter's best moments of the Olys. Peter was injured in summer.

There's a link to an article with a picture of the sexy german gymnast Fabian Hambuechen at the bottom.

Gosh this is nerve wracking. I can't imagine performing in front of so many people... I'd just

Now that Yuzuru's here I'm on the look out for the Pooh tissue box!

And Takahito apparently used up everyone's sparkle on his costume!

CSG found the German psychologist hot and went to his webpage.

It's funny how tastes differ, I would not look at him twice.

Agreed. Not my type either. Liebers though... I wouldn't mind some of that.

Thanks. Will read it after the SP.

Yes, Josh had to break in new blades and probably went out there not with his usual confidence, plus the nerves of Worlds debut. Jason at least has the Olympic experience under his belt which is huge. And, I say again that Adam was heavily ripped on by the judges. No respect. They don't nitpick on other guys with UR and execution errors who lack Adam's artistry.

Go Mura!!!

 

[chairmanmao]

Shanghai is pretty much just a few hours flight from Japan. I'm guessing a third of the audience is Japanese.

 

[Eloise]

I haven't been this nervous since the Ladies' event in Sochi!

 

[satine]
