Jason Brown

Is NBC doing WTT or are they done for the season?

Yikes, is it only about 36 hours to the mens SP or am I confused?

I think I read somewhere that it's only on TV in Japan?

I'm so excited about this competition, probably more excited than any other because there's less pressure and more shenanigans

 

[TMC]

I don't think we get much coverage at all for WTT, which is sad as it is a fun event that some people might actually enjoy watching.

The ISU stream says it is 1 day 6 hours 44 minutes as of 4:40 PM Mountain Time till event start, but i suspect Mens is second. (so 6:40 Eastern, 3:40 Pacific).

But who are we kidding, we want to see Jason cheering as much as we want to see him skate.

You said it!

NBC is done for the season. No WTT on NBC.

The WTT Men's SP starts at 5:40 am ET on Thursday.

Unfortunately, it seems all the networks I turn to are done for the season. No listings for WTT on British Eurosport, and they've even completely removed "Figure Skating" as a sporting category on their online TV listings.

CBC listings do not show anything for WTT, and the CBC team 'signed off' for 6 months at the end of Worlds.

Guess I will need to rely on livestreams and whatever Japanese recordings I can gather up afterwards.

The ISU Stream using Zenmate and Hong Kong seems to work. It also works on the archive section if you want to revisit.

I don't mind the Japanese broadcasts really.

Im trying to check Sportsbox but the auto translate is misbehaving.

Stitch, the whole WTT schedule in Eastern time is at the USFS link above.

The Men's SP starts at 5:40 am ET on Thursday. It is the third segment of the day.

Interesting, I kinda figured it would be the two each day and the men would be the grand finale. Really I find it easier to just lurk here until people start talking about it then try to calculate when it is on. The forum is good at that.

That is 3:40 my time. . . so I don't know i will be seeing it. I tried getting up in the middle of the night for worlds, gave up after the first skater and set an alarm for the first American, slept through my phone vibrating for about an hour and missed the first two Americans.

Thanks Golden !

So NBC is done for season. So no more J&T commentary this year.

Ice network for me, anyway.

Cute new article

http://www.teamusa.org/News/2015/April/14/US-Skaters-Plan-To-Rock-The-House-At-World-Team-Trophy

With fun comments about Jason.

“The women on our team are pretty rowdy,” said Bates, who competed on the winning 2013 team. “Jason Brown really needs to be our mascot. He just has endless energy. He can scream with the best of them.”​

and later

Like Bates, Scimeca is counting on Brown, the U.S. men’s champion, to lead the cheers.

“Jason is just so enthusiastic,” she said. “There’s going to be a big competition to see if anyone can scream louder than he does.”​

Thanks, Stitch. Love seeing these bros together .

Is there anyone that Jason doesn't have a totally adorable bromance with? I love that we don't have to worry about an Evan/Johnny type situation with our top men.

But ... cross-posting from the Team Canada WTT thread, Nam and Jeremy are going to give the U.S. men a run for their money in the cute wars .

More Team USA bros - and it looks like Jason has got Max into the spirit of things.

He's quick - USFSA only tweeted the practice clip of Max a few minutes ago, so they must have only just got off the ice when this was posted!

At first I thought it was the same pic that USFSA posted. . . then I noticed the hat exchange. First Yuzuru, now Max, maybe people will all start playing wearing Jason's hats for fun.

Max of course looked sooo cute .... but better with Jason's hat! I think Jason just needs to open his suitcase for Team USA ...

But how am I supposed to judge the new haircut if he's wearing a hat?
