Would s/o please give an overall impression of Lambiel's skate? He did double some elements, according to Rosaleen's report, so there must've been a lot of other superior stuff in there to result in that score. ll the crowd responded, so something good was going on ... impressions, please?

Thanks

Oh my goodness. I'm so nervous for Jeff I can hardly breathe.

 

[thpme]

It didn't sound like a good skate for Jeff at all from Eurosport's streaming audio...

Phew!! America is 5th and 8th which makes a total of 13 so we still have three spots for next year!!!

Holy ****. That's not good. Poor Jeff. He must be so terribly disappointed, 20 points under his PB.

 

[Tigger]

He just ran out of time is all. Considering how severe Jeff's back injury was and it looked like we wouldn't be seeing him at all this year, I think he did pretty good. He has nothing to be down about.

Poor Jeffrey!

I'm sure he is. He just wanted to skate his best and he obviously didn't so that must be very tough for him.

Thanks

Thanks Rosaleen for all your reporting. Although I'm not staying up all night, here in Wisconsin, I really appreciate being able to "experience" the events when I start an early day by reading your commentary.
Sure wish I lived closer to Canada and could get Canadian broadcasts and tape it all.Our US broadcasting is so limited now.

 

[Tigger]

Oh NO!! Brian...Don't you dare start to cry because I don't want to start!!
