Men: Nathan (obviously), then Aaron and Adam. I really hope Jason doesn't make it. It's Olympics, an athletic competition, not any artistic show.
Women: doesn't matter. I don't see anybody making any impact at OG. Mirai, please win the Nationals, so that there's no controversy this time! Other than that I guess sending Karen and Mariah would be most beneficial in the long term.
Dance podium is locked, obviously. I would like to see them in order: 1. H/D, 2. C/B and 3. S/S.
H/D are probably the most improved team with most chances for bronze at OG. OK, C/B too. So I guess first two in random order, then S/S.
Pairs: I don't care. It will be a tourist trip to Korea anyway.
So if the Olympics is “an athletic competition, not any artistic show,” why are you bothering to list predictions for ice dance? Did you notice they don’t jump?
And what, exactly, makes a male skater an “athlete” or not? If it’s not falling on 3As or quads, then neither Nathan nor our current world champion qualify. If it’s rotating lots of quads most of the time, Adam doesn’t qualify, and Vincent doesn’t either. If it’s consistently getting lots of +GOE on quads, Max doesn’t qualify.
So maybe you’d be better off saying you hope Jason doesn’t qualify because you don’t like him. Because frankly, you’re on thin ground dissing him as an athlete.
