No, a head injury. Or so I read.

I thought you were complaining about her explaining too much about the Georgians.
Ah. Okay.

I think you confused me with someone else who was talking about her knee...Ah. Okay.
The one who has a knee injury is Conti.
Well, the Germans earned it. Much better than the Georgian team.
I still think the Japanese pairs team will move up to either win or place 2nd tmrw.
Lia & Trentt (third place in SP
)
Another breakthrough alongside with GoGo
The teams event has helped our Canadians so much. I think Lia & Trentt need to just focus on themselves and pretend they are not in a podium position. The Hungarians, Japanese and Italians will score big and they have to just ignore it. This is a good opportunity for them to finish in the top five and perhaps to score close to 210. I just hope they do at least an axel in their jump combo tmrw

Is your TV a smart TV? Hopefully it should have a plain web browser, try the CBC Gem website there (that's what I do). Some TV browsers do force us to download the app instead of just playing it in the browser, if that's the case you might need to try downloading different browsers for your TV from its appstore (annoying I know).
It might be easier just to plug in your computer to your TV using good ol' HDMI cable
Hope you can figure something out!

The second-to-last pairs group is going to be more exciting than the last group here.
Sui/Han will pull a miracle and win a 2nd Gold. It's been an awful quaddrenial, they need to save it. Inject her with whatever banned substances are necessary, I don't care at this point, just make it happen.

And EmilyVenue feed is worth its weight in spam, and no futzing with a VPN. Of course, I subscribe to Peacock for other reasons.
Danny and Ellie lived. Maxime and Deanna. In a featured NYT article today, she would not rule out 2030
and Spencer lived! So happy for them.

One of the CBC Gem commentators said she didn't like to see their technique in pairs elements rewarded that much, because he was setting a bad example of endangering his partner and getting away with it. She was afraid it might become a trend. I'm not into rabid fandom either positive or negative, but I really do not like the Georgian pair's technique and hope the FP judges are more critical of that.

I just don't get why the Georgians scored higher than Lia & Trennt.

I am still not over how amazingly well it went for Lia and Trennt and how badly it went for almost all the contenders.
I am still not over some of the propping for the Georgians and Japanese. They should be lower.
Of course, there will be a lot of movement during the LP. The teams are very close. I don't expect Max and Deanna to climb up much. The reality is that they didn't have much preparation. The bummer is that the SP was going much better than anticipated and they had survive the release moves... the lift exit was just another freak accident. they just cannot get a break. However, I appreciated their reaction asking each other if they were okay when it finished.
I hope @DemTuppesSeine is surviving out there. Must have been scary to see all these lift mistakes from the venue.
Silver lining... I may be able to watch Max and Deanna before I go to work tomorrow... which wouldn't have happened if they had been ranked higher.

They've been saying a head injury but not a concussion. That doesn't seem right to me. Whenever a head hits, a concussion is suspected and person has to be watched for what symptoms develop. Symptoms can be delayed or mild and go away. It's a wait and watch and see situation.
I have buyer's remorse with skating at this point.The second-to-last pairs group is going to be more exciting than the last group here.

Sui/Han have the best SP. Unfortunately, their fitness and perhaps coaching situation, prevented them from choreographing an equally good LP. Of course simply going by their SP, I'd still love for them to win.

It was very minor and barely noticeable. Hase/Volodin are deservedly in first place. Yay!
I think the judges did Conti/ Macii dirty. I wonder why they are scored so low. Low levels?
Riku & Ryuichi have power, speed, soft knees, and great ice coverage, along with wonderful choreographers helping them. But they skate over the music; they did NOT deserve high GOE on their twist due to obvious contact on the dismount. They get away with it every time. They did NOT deserve a high score on performance execution either.
Based on the scoring and on the gift-giving to certain teams, I would have Ellie & Danny in 5th, Conti & Macii in 6th. Then, Riku & Ryuichi in 7th, and Sui/Han in 8th, to be fair.

yeah that was Sandra Bezic. She even discussed it with Paul Martini (not on air) and he apparently has a list of everything that's wrong with Luka's technique.One of the CBC Gem commentators said she didn't like to see their technique in pairs elements rewarded that much, because he was setting a bad example of endangering his partner and getting away with it.

you can have a head injury without the concussion and still need monitoring if your neck is very sore.
I think we should just respect Deanna's wish for privacy here.
She said there was a head injury but no concussion so we can go with that

You love them, obviously. They are NOT at full strength, and were overscored here, which set the stage for scores trending so high with clean and cleaner skates.

Cool. Still have the best choreographed SP out there.
Would be good if that meant anything nowadays.
