I was just wondering - was Mirai's score total at Natls about the same as it was at the Olympics?
And was Rachael's score at Natls way higher than her score at the Olympics?
Seems one skater got the big "Natls" scoring inflation boost and the other did not.
I think Carroll was right and Mirai was judged very harshly at Natls. US skating did as much as they could to boost Sasha and Ashley as they did not want Mirai on the Olympic team.
I can imagine Carroll will be letting them know about that - especially members of the "distinguished" tech panel. :scowl:
They overlooked Sasha and Ashley for edge calls and other mistakes and were then forced to send Mirai to the Olympics with the tainted rep of the "ur skater."
Scott mentioned it and of course Carroll was aware of it too. Maybe in the long run it will be good for Mirai but in the meantime, thanks to the US tech panel Mirai will have that reputation for quite a while.
Way to go bozos!
Well.... I don't know if I agree 100 % but ...
hey, where'd the vertical laughing man go?
