It breaks my heart for Canada's 4th, 5th and 6th best guys who are sitting at home and were hoping for three spots for Olys so they could go. That's not very likely now.
Well, don't give up hope. Jeff is in 4th and Eman is in 10th. The magic number is 13. Just think about the final placement (1st = 1 pt, 2nd = 2 pt, etc.).
If Jeff stays in 4th and Eman moves up to 9th or better, Canada can send 3 men to Olympics and Worlds next year.
If Eman stays in 10th and Jeff moves up to 3rd or beter, Canada sends 3 next year.
If Jeff drops to 5th and Eman moves up to 8th or better, 3 men go next year :agree:
If Jeff drops to 6th (and I won't go any lower for him - I don't see it happening) and Eman moves up to 7th or better, 3 men go next year
If Eman moves to 11th, Jeff must finish 2nd or 1st for Canada to send 3 men.
If Eman finishes in 12th, Jeff must win so Canada can send 3 men :yes:
If Eman drops to 13th or less, forget about it.

" when he popped that axel??? I was LOL. Eman has to work this summer on doing every program with all jumps attempted. In CoP, you can't pop. Falls are worth so much more than a pop. If he'd only rotated that axel he could have jumped into the top ten. He drives me nuts :banging: because I watch his SP and the spins are gorgeous, the footwork awesome, interpretation great and he can do the jumps in his sleep but he pops them and ruins his chances every time. Can anyone remember a skate in the past four years where he did not pop a jump? Is it becoming a bad habit that's hard to break???
