Men's LP...play-by-play coverage/comments

[rob43]

Holy crap- same as nationals. He dickered with the program during the skate and gave away a ton of points on components. He was actually #2 on tech.

 

[Saundy]

Well I'm just happy he stayed on his feet and not his bum like Eman (well except for the hand down).

 

[CDMM1991]

will it be good enough!?

 

[Sk8n Mama]

Oh, that loop will haunt Jeff. I think he had a shot if he'd done the 3 loop. The quad was a great attempt. He'll get a fair bit of credit for it. When the camera close din on him he made a gun motion at his head and said, "the loop".

 

[Jasper]

Should not have gone for the quad!

And the doubled jump was bad.

But overall, much better performance from him! Faster, clean axels and lutzes, great combinations, greatc choreography.

Please be enough for 3rd...

I don't think he went for the quad...

 

[Sk8n Mama]

3rd! So we just need the other 2 to choke.-Just kidding.

I don't think he went for the quad...

Yeah, he did. I watched it live on CBC. It was all the way around but he fell.

 

[CDMM1991]

TES=76.80
PCS=78.50
FS Total=154.30
Event Total=227.59

Third, behind Stephane and Evgeny
Ohhhh I wish he had been ahead of Stephane, that would have gave me some comfort. Oh well. Here goes Joubert.

 

[Jasper]

The loop was definitely the nightmare more than the quad.

 

[slutskayafan21]

Woohoo Jeff, hope he medals! I wonder who Lysacek payed off to get those joke PCS scores, what a farce. Dissapointed in Lambiel`s skate but his PCS were still much too low.

 

[Jasper]

Awesome score!!!

OMG.

Please keep the bronze.

Brian Joubert of France

Lord of the Dance


*****starting bells*****

hand down on quad....

2nd quad? NO......big fall [lookin' good for Jeff...]

3 axel? good 3 ax - 2 toe!!!

3 lutz OK "settling..."

hand down on 3 loop

"He has to go for broke in 2nd half..."

went for broke...but fell??? (gasps) sympathy applause...

3 flip-2 toe good

(final hand-clapping music...audience encouraging him)

spirited end - lots of cheers!!!! "a performance that shot across the ice...but not enough. It's the 9 judges who care..will they be kind to Joubert?" asks Simon. Chris thinks "I don't think so. He was uncomfortable BUT did not give up."


lonnnng wait..... SIXTH...that's it for Babou.

3rd! So we just need the other 2 to choke.

That's not nice.

My heart is breaking for Johnny. What was his he thinking? Improv never works.

I am gutted. And then I will have to watch it on TV later.

Yeah, he did. I watched it live on CBC. It was all the way around but he fell.

Well I didn't watch the first part anyway because I was too nervous.

 

[Jill]

C'mon Brian!

 

[VINLUVSKWAN]

No Johnny:banging: All that talent and you reverted back to changing your technical/jump content and confused your maximum number of combos and passes again. WTF???

 

[Kwanford Wife]

Woohoo Jeff, hope he medals! I wonder who Lysacek payed off to get those joke PCS scores, what a farce. Dissapointed in Lambiel`s skate but his PCS were still much too low.

I was wondering where you were hiding... let that man have his moment!

 

[slutskayafan21]

If this event was in France Joubert could count on a ridiculous 80+ on PCS to get him a medal but probably not here.

 

[Sk8n Mama]

That's not nice.

Actually, I'm just kidding. I wouldn't want any of them to choke-they've all worked too hard for this.

I'm finding this program pretty lame I must say.
