2021 Cranberry Cup International

Protocols are up, and frankly, they raise more questions than they answer.

After the initial fall on the jump combo, T/M scored monstrous levels and GOE on every single element, plus a four+ point PCS lead on the field.

They outscored Brian and Jessica on the TWIST. C'mon now...
Well, C/J have a world class twist, but so do T/M. One of the very best. So it's not crazy that they would out score C/J on that element. I can't really say specifically here, since the stream was glitchy so I couldn't see either twist very well, but in general. They're capable of a 4Tw.
 
Do I have the right stream, with some god-awful faux Irish rock type noise playing?
 
You're probably right and I'm being melodramatic.

It's just I believe so much they can win fairly and by doing this the judges are tarnishing it. Now if they win we won't know if they deserved it or not. Or even if they did it will still be bitter instead of triumphant.
Oh, they were the best alright. To me, it's more about the difference with the next 2 pairs. And I would never despise Evgenia, but I did like the expression you used.

Yes, I have issues with the GOE on other elements and the PCS but T/M do have a fabulous twist.
