I think you can edit your title if you go back and edit your first post, but don't worry about it! Happy birthday. 
I just figured out the ESPN360 thing and got to watch most of the program. A little bit slow, and maybe not as good as TEB. But come on, anyone who doesn't like their FD is crazy. Talk about interpreting music, and truly performing. They use Night on Bald Mountain so well and set a mood, an atmosphere. Their OD sucks, but their FD is one of the best.
153.58 points, currently in 1st.

Lovely performance from V/M! Their rotations in the lifts and spins looked really fast today. Footwork intricate and precise as usual. Although I missed their first set of twizzles because of the feed - were they clean?
I know this team can improve, but I still think they're ALREADY the class of the field. Like, wow! I think their skills are unmatched in the current field. I can't believe how much they have improved since the first time I saw them at the '06 4CC.

could someone post the result ?
thanks a lot
thanks a lot
A little low for V/M on the presentation score... hmmm, I guess held back because not in the final group? Too bad, though. I think their score could have been 99 something or 100, especially considering what Dom/Shab got in CoR. 
Playing "Like a Stone" by Audioslave in the rink during warm-ups? Interesting choice from the Italians, but i love that song.
Go Frenchies!!!!!!!!!
My (hopefully wrong) prediction:
B/A Gold
Dom/Shab Silver
Del/Scho Bronze
V/m 159.40
K/n 153.58
P/b 140.82
Ooops, Ben fell on twizzle during warm-up! I've never seen him do that before.
OMG, what hideous costumes the Russians wear. They look and dance terribly.

happy birthday. and may the skater ur rooting for win for you today!
thank you! 17...i feel old
Terrible FD from the Russians. They started off decently but their side-by-side steps were SOOO slow, their twizzles were slow, portions of the footwork were not in unison. All of their lift rotations were incredible slow and forced, especially compared to the brilliant Canadians who do their lifts so fluidly and naturally. Their facial emotions and gestures are also very clearly fake and forced. And way too many random kicks from Domnina during the program.
If this wins the Worlds Gold, it may become the most forgotten FD in the history of ice dance. Gosh, just terrible.
Scared for scores...
OMG, 103.26 for FD? 165.57 overall?!!!!
I might have to stop watching this "sport" soon.

now ur making me feel old.
Del/Scho... I just love their FD, I think it's the best of the season. Also the most romantic we've ever seen them. I'd say tonight they were good but perhaps a bit slow, especially during the side-by-side steps. Could have used more energy and passion - maybe it was nerves holding them back?
It's really a fight for the bronze between them and V/M, I think...
Yes, I was happy their twizzles were clean, in complete unison. You do the scores, it's your birthday. 17 is a great age!
