Although I root mainly for American ladies, I love to watch beautiful skating by ladies from all over the World. I enjoy Fumie and Miki when they are really on and are enjoying themselves. Shizuka? Haven't really seen much of her this season. In prior years, it seems like every time I saw her skate, she was struggling. I'm aware though that she was 2004 World Champ.
I have been speaking out against the minimum age rule for a long time, and I wish Mao Asada could skate in this Olympics. If Kimmie Meissner could have gone to Senior Worlds in 2005 and gotten that experience, I think she would be
garnering more attention in Torino as a serious contender. I really believe that the minimum age rule hurts figure skating in general. We need to have the young teens who win medals at their Nationals - worldwide - be allowed to participate in the Senior Worlds and Olympics experience. JMO.
