She'd be in 3rd at the mens event in this competition.
Since Ladies' PCS are factored by 0.8 in the SP as opposed to 1.0 for the Men's PCS, she actually would be in the lead among the Men too, if I'm not mistaken.

Well, and if you apply 1 instead of 0.8 PCS factor she'd be in 1st place
Exactly. Me too. To some of these fanbots, however, not calling her a gift from God is equivalent to being anti-YuNa.

So agree... this music has been on my skating program wish list for many years.
There's the Clapton version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55A9H-PqOvY
and Chet Atkins' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRtvALWlKK4
To make it closer to a men's SP comp, if you remove Yuna's spiral seq and let's say we count her step seq twice, leave all else the same, where would her score stand?
Judging by what I just saw I take it that Emily Hughes is not going to make the Olympic team. Personally, I never saw the what all of the hype was about anyways. I feel that the only reason she was 'hyped' is because she is Sarah Hughes' little sister, and all through Torino they media kept asking if lightning would strike twice.
But I am sorry to see that Alex did not do as well, I was hoping that she was going to really present her case to be considered a serious contender for the olympic team. At this rate it is going to be Rachel and or either Carolina Zhang or Miri Nagasu.
I think this comment says it all...Hello? Pretentious? Wait, you ARE talking about Yeon-A right? Are you kidding?
I apologize if you're not talking about Yeon-A, but if you are, I think you need to go back and think about it again.
Sorry I'm being harsh, but that comment kind of rubbed me the wrong way.
Yu-Na will bomb. I'm tired of her being divinized.

So would I. Julia is the second cleanest skater after Yuna, followed by Fumie.
It's unlikely, yes. But given how wide open the field is, and how easily the door can be opened by a mistake from the front-runner, I'd never say never.
Even with three spots her chances would be slim at best. Hard to imagine she'd be able to beat all but one American...not without the SOHL and meltdowns from several top contenders...even then they may not send her based on how she's done recently.
I highly doubt Yuna's feelings would be hurt if not everyone like her but geez, her fanbots need to be less sensitive. It's part of life. Not everyone is going to like your fandom and it's okay. The world is not going to end ... yet.
It's called Skate America!! You'd expect a bit favorism from the host country. It's really about UR calls, which is why this system sucks. Both of Rachel's jumps looked suspicious rotation-wise. But i assume she got the benefit of doubt from the controller.
Ok people, now off to the boys thread.
We won't even have to wait around to see Verner skate... in the 1st group :no:
