Really?!! Are you joking me?!! Rachel Flatt won over Mirai Nagasu by like a hefty 20 points?!! This competition is so rigged.
Ugh, really sickening.
Yes, I agree. They better be consistent with last weekend's Olympic team selections and chose the top 2 for Vancouver. It's the least they could do for Mirai after she should have won this competition..

How about
1. The base value of Rachel's jumps were higher i.e 3F-3T.
2. Three of Marai's Jumps were under rotated
3. Marai got and ! edge warning on her 3Lz
Rachael seems to be the only female US skater with a consistantly clean 3Lz no edge problems. She is way on the outside edge, no question about it.
ITA!! WIth three downgraded jumps and 2 edge warnings....I really can't fathom how Flatt's victory can be disputed.

The question is whether Mirai's jumps should have been downgraded in the first place. Many agree that they looked better than ever, and NBC did not show much slow-motion replay.
I agree, Mirai should have won, and after all she's been through, the growing, the crying, the injury, the underscoring, rising to the challenge when the pressure was high, she deserves the spot.
