Ice Dancing - Free Dance (Mon. Feb 22 - 16:45)

This is the same person who called Lysacek "gay" in another thread. What a surprise!

I would just ignore. Anyway, who's got the mojitos, Molson Ice, and maybe some popcorn?

Thanks for the trick list, gsrossano. I appreciate it. Also, thanks ARipp42014 for all of the background info about the programs tonight. I think I'll check out those youtube clip while the non-skating stuff comes on NBC.

No problem. :agree: Who's also in the mood to some FD karaoke? I think we have a few singalong songs for the FD. We got some Edith Paif, PCD, Johnny Hallyday (oh I can't wait for that), Il Divo (if we can sing it in Italian) and heck we'll even throw some Michael Crawford!

Cool beans! atdhe.net is airing it! YAY!

Platov is the coach to both the British teams

Ok. So, B/A could have been his top team and could have politicked for them when it counted. What's Christopher Dean doing now? He's still in Colorado right? Maybe they could have gone to him. Maybe that might not have worked out too well. Dean might have created a non-COP program, which would have pissed off the judges. Is Maia Usova still in the U.S./New Jersey? Maybe her? I'm just trying to get names together for the what ifs....

Czechs are on!

Coverage has started on CTV/Sportsnet.

A few minutes ago they just showed a shot of the adorable Paul Poirier warming up backstage.

Czechs are good so far (at least the lifts). Don't like the music, though.

 

[ARipp42014]

Very cute performance by the Czechs but too easy! Love her dress.

Yeah, it looks normal, like you can pull it off the rack and wear it in real life.

*sings* So close no matter how far.... couldn't be much more from the heart. Forever trusting who we are and nothing else matters...

what time zone is this?

 

[beep_beep]

Ahhhhh, Metallica what a nice change (I couldn't do with the Piaf medley either, I'm classless)

 

[Alex]

Wow, "Nothing Else Matters" WITH the actual lyrics on.
Nice to see that.

 

[DesertRoad]

Estonian team is sophomoric and soporific. Why are those kids skating to such droning, lumbering music? Horrible concept, lackluster skating. Irredeemable.

 

[Spun Silver]

Thanks for the link and we even get BBC commentary. Woo hoo!

ETA: Whoops, I mean Eurosport. Sorry.

1) Czechs
2) Estonians

It's called Ice Dance. There is no logic in this discipline, only politicking. The only reason D/W are doing so well because that's what US federation wants and they also have more capable in back-door dealing coaches.
D/W is the most unattractive, ugly dance team ever graced Olympic Podium. ISU should be ashamed.

Yeah, D/S is the most attractive, beatiful team ever graced World Podium. lol.
