Yes, it’s the same dress Amber debuted to win at Nebelhorn Trophy to open her season.
Yes that's what we've been discussing.

Good. I'm glad you're enjoying it. NBC and U.S. fed are very hamhanded, IMO. Plus, the idea that these skaters are now 'part of the Olympic family' means that those who don't make it, aren't valued and part of the 'family'? They over-hype things so much in skating, especially during the Olympics, as if that's the be-all and end-all, and it's not. The sport doesn't adequately pay attention to issues they should be concerned with that can help benefit athletes in their careers.
The other part is, why drag out the announcing so much? They chiefly want to sell us ads and hype the Olympics. It's just too much over-commercialization. But I'm happy for the athletes who make it. Clearly, they were already told beforehand, which is a good thing.
Saying that they are already Olympians is an overstatement. They don't become Olympians until they actually compete at the Olympics. Hopefully, they will all compete their best. I especially hope Ellie can overcome her landing quirks. It was nice to see their families and friends supporting them. It looks like Ellie's mom gave her the Olympic team jacket. I also noticed that Isabella Flores was there to support Ellie & Danny. Isabella and Ellie are very close friends. Ellie has said how much Isabella inspires her. They grew up together at WASA.
The thing I like are all the possible side effects they mention especially if you are allergic , how the hell do you know without taking it? Am.so sick of these commercials & I am in my 80's & would never take without a dr approval.

At least, there isn't a ton of hoopla for those who have been to the Olympics multiple times.
Some of this might be nice for athletes whose entire families might not be able to accompany them at the Olympics.
I'm not over-enthused with the overdone pumping up of Chock/ Bates for Olympic gold, especially not by Gabby in the commentating booth.

I have to be so careful what I take because of my Chrons and RA and all the medication I take for these conditions. I don’t even take vitamins without consulting my doctors. I’m 59.

I can't believe it! I really didn't think they would make it after their performances!
They are definitely the future of USA ice dance,personally I think much better than C/Pom.

Their 3rd ranked FS, the bronze they won at the fall challenger with a 71+ SP score, and the ineligibility of E/M and M/P made it possible.I can't believe it! I really didn't think they would make it after their performances!
