Who is everyone rooting for to win? I'm rooting for Mirai.

Mirai Nagaxelsu!

Bradie is using The Mission? Yay! She has awesome taste -- I always love her music choices :agree:

Tara jinxing Yana.

The USOC tweeted a video (prerecorded at the OTC) from Max :luv17: promoting the Ladies FS on NBC:

It's funny to watch NBC basically drop Gracie like a hot potato despite the fact that from nationals 2013 to 2016 they pimped her to the extreme. Now that she's fallen on hard times and it was Ashley who ended the world medal drought and not her she's only been mentioned as an after thought after all the Ashley talk.

Karen or Mariah (unlikely but whatever). Mirai would be ok too. Pretty much anyone but the usual suspects.

Might disturb her center of gravity!

It might be hard for her to whip her head around to spot her jumps with the extra poundage!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

What a smile Bradie has!

I wish her dress was a different color- black is too somber for such a hopeful soundtrack

I mean, his lutz should probably have been downgraded, right? The lowest TES at Worlds last year that made it to the LP was 36, which is about where Jason already was..

Lowest score at for worlds free was 65. The last time Jason scored 65 internationally was in 2012 for a junior competition. Even allowing for nationals inflation, Jason does score higher in PCS than tech in general. It's just the kind of skater he is.

Edit: oh, here's Bradie--oops, back on topic now...

I'm from Philly. Soft pretzel with mustard all else optional.

Lol I'm from Philly. Well, Jersey, but right over the Ben Franklin so pretty much Philly. Unfortunately I don't have mustard. Ran out and forgot to buy more.

God, I finally got the purple octopus stream to work so I can watch live from the western US. I had to "borrow" my husbands new work laptop to get it, so if this thing bursts into flames, I'll blame you guys

 

[Lissy]

Has there been any word since the short about Mirai doing the triple axel?

 

[largeman]

Zhangyu guy just agreed with a viewer's comment about the irony of a viewer sitting at home in the US, watching a US event broadcast by Japan and streamed from China

 

[s_parks]

Tennell seems so stiff on her landings.

 

[rollerblade]

I could eat a doze soft pretzels right now. Any toppings/sauce. Bring it, carbs!

I don't think so. It'd be a huge mistake to go for it, IMO.

I guess Bradie could end up going to JW, but I'd rather see Amber go, if possible.

How can anyone not love Max. Maybe this was pre-recorded. I'd still be upset about my SP but, he has to put it behind him.

 

[tulosai]

I really like Bradie Very nice effort!

 

[Chemistry66]

It's now my goal to get #ShutUpTara trending on Twitter.
