[Alatariel]

Dear, dear me.

 

[Layfan]

ouch. what a downer. Brian, I'm so sorry. skate your heart out Thursday just for yourself!

 

[amateur]

oh boy.. ice is slippery... a shame to be definitively out of the running so early, but in this field, he's toast now. :-(

Should be below Amodio I'd think, not even close to top 10

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Go Takahiko!

 

[silverlake22]

68???? They are treating him like Caroline Zhang, yeah he messed up, but he deserves more than a 68!

1) Still Plushy
2) Still Dice-K
3) Nobu
4) Little Prince
5) D-Ten

Joubert is 10th! OMG! Go Taki-San!

 

[kiz_4Ever]

I don't like him....but either I'm soo sad for this...10th...pour Brian!!!

 

[Scout]

He said in the K&C "Je n'arriverai pas" - I won't make it. Poor guy. I'm absolutely heart broken.

 

[#1Kerryfan]

10th? He probably never imagined THAT low. I was hoping he'd be 3rd, behind Lysacek and Abbott...

 

[magicalwords]

Oh my. I feel so bad for Brian, I don't think I can be as happy as I can be even if others have the skate of their lives.

 

[BigJohn]

68.00.....10th

A little generous, but judges have been generous all around tonight.

 

[kiz_4Ever]

BTW, judges are using the whole COP very strictly...they won't save anyone...I'm both happy and worried about that, but again after the pairs competition, it's interesting...

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Yes!

 

[screech]

68???? They are treating him like Caroline Zhang, yeah he messed up, but he deserves more than a 68!

He didn't do a combo (and he stepped out of the first jump) plus his triple lutz, which he fell on, was downgraded. The performance also went down because of his mistakes.

On a fun note, Joubert got the same Transitions score as Plushenko! Hee hee

And yay Kozuka! His personality is starting to come out more in his skating. YAY!

 

[Face2Mac]

Joubert is 10th because when you talk so much smack about the quad and jumps and you fail to make yours, they take a hammer and nail your brain in.

 

[#1Kerryfan]

Sandra Bezic pisses me off

 

[seniorita]

i lost takahiko from shock...Medusa are you ok?i m on skype now..

 

[Hsuhs]

A bit nervous, still lovely!

 

[ARipp42014]

The men from the land of the rising sun are on tonite! I love Takahiko's performance a little more than Nobu's. All the young guns are on tonite (him, Ten, Lil Flo, Javi) and hopefully Michal will bring it too.

 

[Mrs. P]

Nice work Kozuka! That was awesome!
