2018 Olympic Season: Ice Dance

It doesn't even matter who wins at this point because there's going to be backlash no matter what happens. I have a feeling that this thread is going to end in a blood bath either way and I am not ready for that. Hopefully we can just all enjoy our favourites and not bring the other teams down to prop ours up.

:rofl:
 
In V/M world, V/M are technically superior in every way and should be way ahead of P/C. In their minds, V/M are better artistic skaters, as well, since P/C perform the same FD every year, and because, you know...Tessa studied ballet. And if someone dares to prefer P/C or criticize V/M's artistry...well, those people are just giving subjective opinions...but, objectively, everyone knows that V/M are wonderful artistic skaters and should score as high as anyone.

V/M fans live in their own reality. They are like Roger Federer fans in tennis. They literally can't comprehend why anyone would prefer another athlete. They don't understand that other people may value and want to reward different things. And so they blame politics and Didier and Marina...or they say that the rules need to be changed because V/M not winning is making a mockery of the sport.
 
In my opinion P/C are definitely more elegant skater/dancers and have beautiful movement quality but V/M are just so artistically amazing and awesome to watch. I think either could take gold based on what they've both done this season but I hope it's 1, 2 whether it be V/M first of P/C first
 
fans of any top team thinks their team is better than the other and can't comprehend why someone would prefer another athlete. VM fans are not the only ones guilty of this so please don't act like they are.
 
What a strange SP running order. Does anyone know how SP running orders are decided? I thought V/M and P/C or at least one of them would be last but they're going 1 and 2 in the last group.

I didnt say that some super die-hard french fans are better. But look at the comments here : V/T are much better skaters overall and deserve OGM 2 days before competition but p/c will win because the fix is in.
Just like in 2014 . What a conspiracy .It is already irritating
 
I don't care who wins. I just want clean skates. No regrets.

True. Fans of both sides are equals.
 
I'm bummed that the twitch streamer got banned...now I have to watch on the NBC Olympics app. I'll be watching it like an hour or and hour and a half after I get home from the airport tomorrow. Lol. Dedication!

Yeah, a conspiracy. That's what I meant. Wasn't an opinion. At all.

While yes, some comments here are irritating because they talk about how the fix is in, but what's more irritating is how there usually ends up being more posts like yours complaining about the VMs fans who are talking about how the fix is in.. Both are irritating... both should stop... both will continue doing whatever they want. so why don't we stop complaining about something that hasn't even happened yet and just enjoy our faves.
 
Considering how many thousands of people went to nationals and nobody complained about that "Carmen crotch lift", I'm guessing these are crib notes from NBC trying to avoid offending viewers during the so-called "Family Hour", the same hour they used to play such harmless family-friendly programs like Friends ... oh, wait. :eyeroll: :laugh:

Tarasova said that the original crutch lift was much better in her opinion.

Mines are more irritating then theirs? :noshake: LOL Yes, lets stop complaining, believe me I go for it.

Well... I didn’t actually say that YOURS in particular were irritating. Just when there are a lot of comments like yours. But I’d say that complaining and talking bad about all fans is more irritating than someone saying that vm deserve to win so... take that how you will.
 
I’m really excited for ID, especially to see who gets third (as I assume P/C and V/M have top two placements locked up). As between the US teams, I’m torn. I like S/S sd best by some margin, but honestly I like all of their fd’s, and whose I like best seems to depend on which I’ve watched most recently, lol. And they all seem like wonderful people with heartwarming back stories of hard work, perseverance, disappointment, etc. I guess if I had to say, my slight preference would be for the Shibs, not necessarily bc I like their FD more, but bc they were responsible for my starting to follow ID more closely again w their Fix You program. Best of luck to all the teams!
 
Just to put it out here, I love both Virtue & Moir and Papadakis & Cizeron. May the best win :cheer:
